Lutron Connected Bulb Remote

[TaylorTWBrown]

Is it possible to add the Lutron Connected Bulb Remote? It is a 4-button ZLL dimmer.

It's a bit of an odd device, as it is generally paired to the bulbs directly rather than the hub. The 4 buttons connect directly to bulbs to do the following:

• Light - 100%
• Brighter
• Dimmer
• Light - 0%

Ideally, zigbee2mqtt would be able to read the commands directly, so that I could use them as plain old button controllers.

Before I buy a bunch of ZigBee hardware from China to test this, are there any caveats I should be aware of?

I need to check this, I have a quite similar device (TRADFRI remote control). Will check if I'm able to read commands from it.

Only caveats is that you need to flash your CC2531, but this is documented here

I'd be interested in using these devices as input to Home Assistant or similar as well.

Alright, great! I've ordered a CC2531 and programmer. I'll test out my Lutron remote when it gets here.

I cannot get the Tradfri remote control to send button commands to zigbee-shepherd. I found out that the Tradfri Remote Control has profileID: 0xC05E, which seems not supported by zigbee-shepherd at the moment. This is the Touchlink profile zigbeer/zigbee-shepherd#11

Probably because of this attrs are missing in E.G. genLevelCtrl

{ genBasic: 
   { dir: { value: 1 },
     attrs: 
      { '10': {},
        '65533': 1,
        zclVersion: 1,
        appVersion: 17,
        stackVersion: 87,
        hwVersion: 1,
        manufacturerName: 'IKEA of Sweden',
        modelId: 'TRADFRI remote control',
        dateCode: '20170302',
        powerSource: 3,
        swBuildId: '1.2.214' } },
  genPowerCfg: 
   { dir: { value: 1 },
     attrs: 
      { '65533': 1,
        batteryVoltage: 28,
        batteryPercentageRemaining: 47 } },
  genIdentify: { dir: { value: 3 }, attrs: { '65533': 1, identifyTime: 0 } },
  genGroups: { dir: { value: 2 }, attrs: {} },
  genScenes: { dir: { value: 2 }, attrs: {} },
  genOnOff: { dir: { value: 2 }, attrs: {} },
  genLevelCtrl: { dir: { value: 2 }, attrs: {} },
  genAlarms: { dir: { value: 1 }, attrs: { '65533': 1 } },
  genOta: { dir: { value: 2 }, attrs: {} },
  haDiagnostic: { dir: { value: 1 }, attrs: { '65533': 1 } },
  lightLink: { dir: { value: 3 }, attrs: { '65533': 1 } } }

My current understanding of the Tradfri remote control is that instead of emitting button press events it directly controls bulbs. Reading various topics this seems to be a strange device. Therefore I still have trust that the Lutron connected bulb remote can be supported.
