Elko dimmer not responding to switch

[kristianwh]

I have a bunch of Elko dimmers (Dimmer model: ELKO ESH Plus 316GLED dimmer RF http://bit.ly/2oLyvxs), ref. issue #464
Using deconz V2_05_34

I have tried the new switch editor. It works on my Hue and IKEA bulbs, but I can not get it to do anything with these dimmers, even if they are added to the same group. It looks from Phoscon like they turn on/off when clicking the switch, but these dimmers remain dark. Manually switching/dimming from Phoscon/Home Assistant works fine.

When I say manually switching and dimming works fine, I actually mean that it mostly work fine. Sometimes I have experienced they don't turn on when I toggle them on. I then have to toggle off, and adjust the dim-slider (most times once, other times a couple of times) to get them to turn on.
This is in Phoscon - in Home Assistant (with the deconz component),I have had no trouble.

Can you control them as group from the Phoscon App?

The rules which are created by the switch editor currently only work on groups. There were devices in the past which only supported unicast commands and would ignore group commands.

Hmm, yes, I think I actually had some problems with controlling them in a group, so this might be the explanation. Is there any configuration I can do to achieve this, or is it just a limitation of these devices?

[manup]

The limitation is in the devices firmware (if this is the case here), only workaround is to send just unicast commands.

Ok, thanks. I'll close the issue, and hope for a firmware upgrade for my devices :)
