I’ve spent quite a bit of time trying to find instructions on how to configure multi-tap for the Inovelli Blue 2-1 switches on Home Assistant ZHA.
I’ve found tidbits here and there - maybe a blueprint, plus some parameter info - but nothing that avoids the usual hours or days of fiddling with Home Assistant.
Has anyone here configured multi-tap for the specific set of givens in the first sentence above? If so, would you please share the steps needed to make it happen?
Thank you.
EDIT: Adding the steps here for easy reference (HA version 2023.1.6):
Go to the Home Assistant Settings area
Go to the devices list
Open an Inovelli Blue 2-1 switch
From the resulting device page, add an Automation
In the resulting popup titled “Create automation with device”, expand the “Do something when…” list and select the appropriate action, such as “Up button double clicked”
In the resulting “New Automation” page, click “Add Action” and then proceed with whatever action type path you prefer.
If you’re using the visual editor to create automations, just choose the “device” trigger type, and select your switch as the device. The various tap options will be in the selector for the trigger.
Thank you. I gave that a try, but it’s not detecting as double taps. Now that I’ve said that, I’ll double check that the switch parameters are set to enable multi-taps.
Click on Add Trigger and select “Device” from the drop down
Under Device, select your Blue Series device
Under Trigger select the button combo you want such as up_single, down_double, etc…
Add your actions and save the automation
ADVANCED:
After you’ve selected the device and trigger, hit the 3 dots under triggers and select Edit ID
Give it a name like “Up_Single”, “Down_Double” etc…
Under actions, start but picking “Choose” (Or If-Then will work too)
Under the condition inside the Choose, select “If Triggered By” and select the ID you just entered.
Add your actions for that trigger
Now go back up and add a second trigger, maybe down_triple
repeat these steps from the beginning until you’ve built out all the button combo’s you’d like for that switch. This helps keep everything clean and under 1 automation instead of having 15 different automations for each switch.
