Hi, perhaps a very quick yes/no question, but hopefully there’s more to it than that….
Is it in any way possible to add (pair) an arbitrary ZigBee 3.0 device the Legrand Valena Home+Control network?  Let’s begin with something simple; Smart Lights.
I know that Ledvance and Phillips Hue is listed as compatible, but what about IKEA devices?  IKEA’s devices are widely acceptable, available world wide, low cost, high quality – can they be used?  If not, where is the limitation? Is it technical difficulties or is it just a business decision?

(hoping for a Yes) 😊

Hello Oyvind,

All Z3.0 devices can’t be linked to the Legrand Gateway. For example : a switch from another brand. The only possible thing is to link Z3.0 devices (Legrand and from other brands) to a third-party Z3.0 compatible hub. But of course, you will loose the possibility to manage Legrand devices via Home + Control app in this case

Concerning Z3.0 lights – as we are not a lighting manufacturer – we try to make it work in the Legrand network and Home + Control app for the majority of them. It’s a bit difficult because of the differences of lights behavior between the different manufacturers

We did some tests on Ikea Z3.0 lights :

Many thanks for your reply, Leslie.

If I wanted to test some IKEA lights – how do I do that? By selecting Ledvance, or by selecting Phillips Hue?

I haven’t found any other possible options in the Home + Control App.

Hi again,

In Home + Control app when you go in the Zigbee 3.0 “Other devices” section, you’ll just have to click on the “Connected lighting” section and it will launch the association process. Ledvance and Phillips are just brand examples

Have a good day,

<p>Sorry, I can’t understand, NOK is a NO or a OK? next to driver. Cause I’m interested in that specific device</p>

<p>NOK means Not-OK.  It does not work.</p>

<p>Just a feedback. On my side, IKEA Tradfri Driver is well paired with the Legrand Gateway and I’m able to manage brightness and ON/OFF. </p>

<p>IKEA have several “drivers” – which one do you have?<br />Also, when you say you can control brightness, are you refering to the Home&Control App or some other automation platform?</p>

<p>Yes I mean control it in the Home&Control app (I paired them with the Legrand Switch Hub). </p><p>For the driver, I have both 10W and 30W. I bought them 4 months ago. </p><p>For the 10W : Ikea Tradfri Driver 503.561.87 (https://www.ikea.com/fr/fr/p/tradfri-transformateur-electrique-connecte-connecte-gris-50356187/)</p><p>For the 30W : Ikea Tradfri Driver 603.426.56 (https://www.ikea.com/fr/fr/p/tradfri-transformateur-electrique-connecte-connecte-gris-60342656/)</p><p> </p><p> </p>

<p>What exactly do you mean by “the Legrand Switch Hub”?  Do you have a link? The only gateways I find online are the original “Legrand/Bubendorf Diamond Gateway” and the “Netatmo Radiant® Smart Gateway”.<br />Do you mean any of those?</p><p> </p>

<p>Yes it’s the Diamond Gateway (see attached photo). The link : https://www.legrand.fr/pro/catalogue/pack-de-demarrage-dooxie-with-netatmo-pour-installation-connectee-1-prise-et-1-commande-sans-fils-blanc-sans-plaque</p><p> </p><p>To pair the IKEA driver to the Diamond, just had to reset IKEA Driver and put in in pairing mode (by pressing the reset button 6 seconds) and for the Legrand part, just follow the instruction in the app.</p>
