ON OFF information on SWITCH 067773

Hy

To date with current firmware, only toggle information is available on these switches.

Is it possible to also access the ON and OFF information when the switch is activated?

 

Thank you for your response

Hello Jean-Marc,

A NLT – as all wireless switches – must be considered as a “dumb” device, which means that it’s only a signal repetitor and can’t know its own ON/OFF state. Via the API you must check the “on” value (true/false) of the wired switch linked to it to know the state

hi

In the first firmwares it was possible to know if you had pressed the ON or OFF button. but now we only have the Toggle information. Is it not possible to get all the informations namely ON OFF and TOGGLE

 

Thank you for your response

Hello Jean-Marc,

When you say “in the old firmware”, you are talking about what was shown by the API ? Or are you talking about the LED behavior on the switch ?

Hello,

Jumping on this thread as I am faced to similar limitations. I have no word to express my dissatisfaction in regards to Legrand!

In my house I have spent thousands of euros in Legrand Netatmo devices (Wired switches, Output wall, NLTs, Presence Sensors, etc..) everything is Legrand Netatmo.

To me (but probably for all Legrand Netatmo users) all wireless device are useless because:

  • States and controls are not exposed to “Home+Control App” and so by some extend not exposed to Apple Shortcut nor on Homekit!
  • These devices requires to be paired with a wired devices.

As a consequence you cannot use them to be part of any automation.

For example:

  • If Presence is detected Then switch On wired switch
    • You can’t have the state of Presence sensor
    • The fact that Presence sensor requires a pairing with wired device makes it an automatic switch.

Inded, users cannot control the flow of their automation. Its absurd as they may want to control  wire switch with presence sensor state AND other conditions.

  • Same applies with NLTs: If my Location is X Then Control NLT

These are huge limitations in automation world.

Please request features so these wireless devices become usefull.

Regards,

Romain

 

 

Hello Romain,

Wireless switches only act as ZigBee repeaters in a Home + Control installation with a Legrand/Bticino gateway. The “intelligence” stands in the wired devices. So, only wired switches are exposed in HomeKit and the on/off state change displayed by the API is only related to wired ones

Our wireless devices are ZigBee 3.0 compatible. It can be possible to use them via a Z3.0 hub (of course they are not linked anymore to the Legrand gateway) and maybe it could fit your needs

This being said, I forwarded your request and remarks to the relevant teams
