Aqara OPPLE switches support

[PremiumUsername]

Are these switches supported presently, or on your radar for future support?

Aqara Opple switches

They seem very promising I think.

[lubbertkramer]

Following, saw them on Ali (https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/4000322297550.html) for a nice price. Saw they are zigbee 3.0

[addellll]

+1 on those. I saw them yesterday and price is amazing compered to other wall switches on market, and much more potential compered to the normal Aqara wall switch. I will order and report back.

[easybeat]

+1 on those please. Happy to see that this got the label "device integration". Crazy price of the switch. I've got already the other aquara switch and it works brilliant!

[geurti64]

👍
Following as well.
Very interesting scene selectors.

[djashjones]

Just got my 6 button version. Tried to add the device as a switch and it failed but I can see it in the deconz app. The first button switches on all my "Lights" and the second button switches them off.

Model: WXCJKG13LM
Model Identifier: lumi.remote.b686opcn01

What info do you guys need to get this device integrated?

[addellll]

@djashjones https://github.com/dresden-elektronik/deconz-rest-plugin/wiki/Request-Device-Support
Have you tried to listen for deconz_events in Home Assistant or Nodered?

[djashjones]

Sorry don't know how to listen to events in either HA, nor node-red (which I have both).

[addellll]

@djashjones
In HA -> Developer Tools -> Events
You write deconz_event in the lower box and press "Start listening".
After this you try press the Aqara Opple Switch and see if you get any responds. If sucessful you will see responds similar to the picture. The "event" number should change depening what button you press and if you press, long press or double press.
Please try it and report back :)

Just got my 6 button version.

How do you experience it, quality wise?

[djashjones]

Same quality as the 2 battery powered 2 button rocker I have. I do like it a lot. It's like the Ikea remote and the base is magnetic.

I will see what events get fired tonight when I get home from work.

[Xylomid]

Nothing shows up when I listen to deconz_event in home assistant while pressing buttons. I can see it in deconz like the screenshots above but not in phoscon.

What's weird is that it turns on / turn off my trafri bulbs which are linked in phoscon...

[djashjones]

Confirmed, Nothing in HA, event wise.

I have Ikea Tradfri bulbs (dimmable) and sockets.

Button 1, top Left, action = Switches off all my lights and sockets.
Button 2, top Right, action = Switches on all my lights and sockers.
Button 3, middle left, action = Decreases brightness on bulbs.
Button 4, middle Right, action = Increases bright on bulbs.

[geurti64]

Any news for Homey?

[mikekoumas]

same issue here as djashjones said
did you find any solution yet?

[mat1990dj]

+1, just received the 4-button switches and does as commented by @djashjones
I'm using pimatic that is using the REST API and it's not showing.
Calling the API on /api/ neither shows the MAC address on the list of all devices
What can we help to integrate the device?

Off topic: Just Receiver 6 Button version. There was no Instruktion in the Box. Could anyone Tell how top pair it? Reset Button seems to bei useless? Hold it up to 5 Seconds but nothing happens?

[fleshinachair]

Do you have the new Xiaomi homekit hub?

No. I'm unsing conbee with hassio.

[djashjones]

I think I paired it by holding the button down (top left, next the led) until it started flashing.

[Kroeliemonster]

I am also eagerly awaiting the integration of these switches. I went ahead and already bought a 6 button one, if there is anything that can be done to speed up the integration let me know.

[tuffelh]

I also have the 6- and 4-button Versions waiting for Support :)
Nice Quality btw...

[addellll]

Found on zigbee2mqtt git that this switches should be able to support "release after hold".
If true this switches will support event 1234.
For you guys that have the normal Aqara single/double rocker you might have noticed that it is not possible to dim lights in a good way. This because its only send one event when hold. The new Aqara Opple switch seams to be able to send both x001 (hold) and x003 (release after hold) event.

[djashjones]

This will be ideal for my bathroom when get supported. 1 for the on/off, 2 for dimming and the third row for the extractor fan manual on/off

[fleshinachair]

Or WLED, one to change brightness, one colour and one effects!

[eserero]

Just got mine :-) , 6 button variance
I concur it controls all the lights: 2 top buttons are on and off, the middle buttons are dim up or down and the 2 lower buttons are more yellow or less yellow color.
doesnt appear on domoticz at all or on phoscon :-(. is there any way to control what lights it controls?
is there a way to make it control only specific lights?

[MarcProe]

4-Button-Version:

[eserero]

So playing around a bit with deCONZ, and noticed there is a way to add xml file to extend the profiles, devices etc. is this something that can help here? or do we need to get some code support for these switches?

I tried looking at the user guide "extending the zcldb section, but not sure how to map things. it seems the mapping are correct (on/off , dimmer and color are all identified) but there are no events or configurations like there are with another xiaomi switch I have, and I couldnt yet find something obvious in the file that shows me how to link it to a specific type of device.

[Mimiix]

To all users here having generic questions: The device is implemented correctly and is functional.

For questions: Use Discord, or open a own issue (with the user question template!)

[elpaso666]

@Mimiix I have run sudo atp-get update/upgrade... it went tho, last line are like:
Setting up deconz (2.05.81-raspbian-buster-stable) ...
how ever in phoscon I see 2.05.71 / 9/14/2020 - old version, but new date :)

Exactly the same here.....I upgraded to latest version but phoscon app still shows 2.05.71 with a newer
date like elpaso666 mentioned.
I checked again via shell to update but now it says I am on the latest version.

[elpaso666]

Hi,
try rebooting the RPI. after reboot I had latest version in Phoscon gui with available button to upgrade the FW, which I did and now I am on latest phoscon and latest FW where Aquara Opple button confirms it is updated as it works.

Thanks Jakub....that was the solution!! Aqara Opple works now.

Button 3, middle left, action = Decreases brightness on bulbs.
Button 4, middle Right, action = Increases bright on bulbs.

Got my opple 6-way today and have exactly the same behavior.

I'm on 2.5.79 with Firmware 26350500 on a ConBee 1

hi, I have same issue, how did you fix it?
I am on 2.05.88 with FW 26660700 (latest firmware), Conbee 2

Same for me. Pairing with Phoscon is working nicely but it always activates all Zigbee Devices without any scene being configured in ioBroker. It just does what it wants so I guess this switch is worthless...

[kooskaspers]

Switch works fine here, but I have to admit I’m not assigning actions through the Phoscon interface. I’m handling the button presses via node-red (and the corresponding deconz addon).

[MegaMatze]

Hmm then I wonder if this is related to ioBroker, which i use with deconz. Though I did not set up any commands to activate everything on a trigger.... kind of weird

[easybeat]

Hi
I've several aqara opple switches and they work fine. Also at the beginning I had problems with pairing them. I followed these steps.

1. Delete switch in phoscon app if it is already in there
2. Start pairing mode
3. press reset button for at least 13 seconds on the opple switch and release
4. Wait!!! until it is paired completely and you can see that manufactorer and switch name have changed in Phoscon
5. Close the process
6. press the top left button 1x
   With this process it did always work.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards
Beat

[kremer-io]

@easybeat thx for your post. Are you able to receive any events via websockets from the opple switch? In my case pairing works, but no events in websocket. (Conbee 2: 2.06.00 Firmware 26660700)

[easybeat]

Hi

yes I'm using them in ioBroker without any problems with the latest deconz Adapter 2.06.

Does that help?

Thanks
Beat

[SmartHomie1]

@easybeat thx for your post. Are you able to receive any events via websockets from the opple switch? In my case pairing works, but no events in websocket. (Conbee 2: 2.06.00 Firmware 26660700)

Have you tried a restart of deconz adapter instance? And an ioBroker restart? That was the solving step in my case with the Opple switch.

Sorry did not see that you mentioned that you are already on deconz 2.06 version. I'm not, I'm on 2.5.86 with previous Firmware.

[kremer-io]

Yes, I restarted deconz. There is no ioBroker involved on my side. I was just checking WebSocket.

[kremer-io]

I did some research on versions:

• When pairing in 2.06.00 --> No Events
• When pairing in 2.05.88 --> No Events
• When pairing in 2.05.85 --> Events are working
  • Upgrade to 2.06.00: Events still working (no new pairing)

It's looking like, that pairing is broken >= 2.05.88 (pairing works, but no events)

@easybeat Thx, your hint about your version pointed me in the right direction.

OK. very interesting. Please create a bug report and good you got them working. I think these are the best switches at the moment compatible with deconz.

Thanks

[accelle17]

I usually use the phoscon and deconz gui and do the following when pairing the oppleswitch:

1. Click 'Add new switch'
2. Press the oppleswitch button C located on the back for 6s
3. Go to deconz, click basic cluster and read attributes
4. Phoscon should show 'compound has been prepared', do not close it yet.
5. If your device shows on deconz like this, it's successful and not paired to all zigbee devices
   
6. If not, click on the oppleswitch device on deconz gui and hit F5 (Reset node) until you get above clusters. Repeat until successful, I usually do it 2-3 times.

[hwinkel]

@accelle17 I'm trying to reset the node as i just get a small window without all the clusters and my opple 3 gang is üaired with ALL deconz lights as described above. I'm running the latest 2.08.00 Version. How long takes such a F5 Reset usually? Nothing changes here. I'm Resetting with the menu as I'm connected via VNC from a MAC and would make sure there are no wroong funcion key mappings.

[mylesewen]

Many thanks @accelle17, I too have tried your solution but it doesn't work for me either :-(

I have 2 Aqara Opple 6 button switches that I added around a year ago that work perfectly fine and two news ones that I tried to add today that do not work. In Phoson (they appear, but do not obey any button assignments), instead button 1 (top left) switches most, if not all Zigbee devices off and button 2 (top right) switch all the devices back on again. In Home Assistant I don't see any deconz events for them at all.

Might this be a bug that is likely to get fixed in a newer firmware? (I'm currently running version 2.07.01 / 08/12/2020, firmware 26660700)

exactly the same here. Doensnt work. I can link the switch in phoscon, but I cant use it. Just to switsch all! Lights on and off with the first row

Just click the C button on the back once.

[Vincevega83]

the hint with pressing c on the back helped a little. In Phoscon i am now able to use the switch.
But how can I use it to control lights in home assistant? The button appears, but I cant use it...

[casch-at]

This procedure worked for me:

1. Click on "Add new switch"
2. Press the C-Button for at least 6 seconds
3. Press the button right beside the led light a couple of times (not fast) until the device was found, the led blinks always once when pressing the button.

You may need to repeat this steps (Deleting the device shouldn't be necessary, at least for me it worked)

The C-Button might work as well as the other mentioned, which would make sense.

The version information wasn't shown under the switch, but now it shows up. In deconz the cluster information "Multistate Input (Basic)" and "Lumi specific" where not shown when it didn't work, but now they show up, as they do for the other aqara switches.

I hope this will help some!

[Mimiix]

As this issue is resolved and it starts to become a #metoo issue I'm locking it.
