Ikea TRÅDFRI Shortcut Button

[kwolter]

I'm assuming these should work with the plugin? I've always wanted to add single buttons to some locations for manual control of scenes, etc. For $7.99 even better. ;-)

I picked up the same button and I have hardtime figuring out how to get it to work.
Could you, please, ELI5 how you have it running?

I'm using HS4, Nortek stick and HS4's "native" zigbee plugin for zigbee. Do I need something else to get to talk to the Ikea button?

This is the JowiHue plugin, which uses the Philips bridge or ConbeeII transceiver to support Zigbee. Completely different hardware and software. One would think you should ask your question in the HS4 Zigbee support forum.

Hi!
I bougth 2 TRADFRI shortcut button and added it easily with JowiHue and Conbee II. Detected as a switch and a battery.
I've created events that toggle the table lamp near the bed of the kids. They can switch on and off the lamp plugged in a z-wave smart outlet. It work great!

I'm able to get 3 types of status with the button :

• Short press : On short (1001)
• Hold long press : On holding (1002)
• Long press released : On released long (1003)

I configured two events :

• Event1 (Turn the lamp ON) : If device had its value set to « On short » and the lamp is OFF, Set the lamp to ON.
• Event2 (Turn the lamp OFF) : If device had its value set to « On short » and the lamp is ON, Set the lamp to OFF.

A lot of possibility, for 9.99$ in Canada, cant find anything cheaper!

Picked one up yesterday and works fine.

I have no repeaters in the house, yet.

A week with the Conbee and it’s worked flawless so far. I’m using only ikea tradfri stuff.
