Question regarding basic configuration and multiple rockers on one actor

[Basti-Fantasti]

Hi,

I have some questions regarding the configuration of the actors, rockers and virtual rockers in the devices file

In my physical setup I currently have

• 7xFSR61 for lights
• 2xFSB61 for Blinds
• 7 Rockers single and double types (so 2 or 4 triggers/switches)

I've been using these now for several years with my own custom enocean component in HA.
It works more or less 😄
I have adjusted the internal enocean module to be able to communicate with my FSR61 and FSB61 (basic light on/off and Shutters up and down)

Now I found this project and think it's way more convenient and flexible to use.

To be able to trigger the physical FSR61 and FSB61 I added 9 emulatedRockers to my devices file.
I've set them up like this:

[emulatedRocker1]
address = 0xFFFFFFFF
rorg    = 0xF6
func    = 0x02
type    = 0x01
sender  = 0xFF963481
virtual = 1

...

[emulatedRocker9]
address = 0xFFFFFFFF
rorg    = 0xF6
func    = 0x02
type    = 0x01
sender  = 0xFF963489
virtual = 1

That's the base ID + Offset (0x80+ 1-9) as a senders UID
I assume, the rorg,func and type fields belong to the specs of the single rocker F6-02-01
The address field could be a plain broadcast ?!?

I've configured one of my physical rockers for testing purpose
It's a double rocker with the address fetched using the protocol

[rocker_buero_og]
address = 0x0031E010
rorg = 0xF6
type = 0x02
func = 0x02

• How can I use physical rockers inside HA to trigger non enocean devices? E.g. I would toggle some Shellies or Zigbee devices using my physical rockers. This rocker shown above has 4 triggers which could be used (if possible)

Now I have added the first FSR61 for my office light - also for testing:

[fsr61_buero_og]
address = 0x050FD2DD # The address of your FSR61
model   = eltako/fsr61
sender  = 0xFF963481 # UID of emulatedRocker1

Adress is read from sticker on device.
And the sender in this case would be the emulatedRocker1

• Is this configuration right so far?
• I have paired the physical rockers directly with the FSR61 and FSB61, so they work 1:1 from rocker to actor

The procedure as described in the docs says to bring the device (actor) into pairing mode, then set the LEARN property in the enocean mqtt entity. But which virtualRocker will be paired with the actor?

I assume the procedure to successfully pair the emulatedRockers with the Actors would be like this:

1. Set Actor in Pairing mode
2. Enable `LEARN' mode for enocean MQTT
3. Go to desired entity which is set with physical actor ID and sender ID of emulatedRocker
4. Press pairing button

• Disable LEARN mode for enocean MQTT

Would this be the complete and correct procedure?

Any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance
Bastian

Hello,

If you want your HA to send command to your FSR61 and FSB61, you don't need to add their paired rock switch to the HA configuration. To pair them, you need to remove the sender ID in FSR61 and FSB61 and just follow this procedure:

• Enable learn mode from MQTT
• Set actor in pairing mode
• Optional : check the last_seen sensor from the device you are trying to pair, it should be set to the time you activate the pairing mode in the device
• Disable learn mode from MQTT

To use a rocker switch to trigger command inside HA, your configuration is correct. In your automation, you can set a device trigger when a button is pressed and then use a device condition to determine which button was triggered.

Hello Christophe,

thanks for your response and your detailed answers.

Everything should be clear now 😄
I'll try to switch to the extension on the next weekend.

Thanks again

Best regards

I have now added my physical rockers to the configuration.
But when pressing one of the rockers, I can see that the action is registered by the Python Enocean backend, but it says not recognized.

Is there something wrong with this configuration?

[rocker_buero_og]
address = 0x0031E010
rorg = 0xF6
type = 0x02
func = 0x02

How exactly can I tell the Type and Func codes?
It's a double rocker with 4 triggers.
But also in the mqtt item the events are not registered or shown when I trigger one of the rockers.

I have the same rocker switch configuration and the device appears like that on HA

Do you have the same ?
