This works great to quickly control the island lights in sync with the main kitchen light switch (including dimming via tap-and-hold).
However one thing that is not working is the double-tap levels enabled via parameters 53–56.
The docs for Group 3 say:
If param. 53 = 1, 2x press up sends SwitchMultiLevelSet to P55
If param. 54 = 1, 2x press down sends SwitchMultiLevelSet to P56
but this isn’t working for me.
In other words, I have parameters 53 and 54 enabled, and when I double-tap on the “Kitchen Ceiling Lights” switch, I’d like the “Kitchen Ceiling Lights” to go to the levels set in its parameters 55/56, and the “Kitchen Island Lights” to go to the levels set in its parameters 55/56 and the docs say that this should happen via Group 3 Association.
Both switches are running FW 1.2.0, in case that matters.
Thanks for the reply, Peter. I wonder why it’s not working for me if it’s working for you!
If I double-tap the top of the paddle on the “sending” switch (the one where the Association is configured), just its lights change to the level set in parameter 55 — the “receiving” switch does not turn on. However, if I single-tap the sending switch, both lights turn on to the values set in parameter 13. If I then tap-and-hold, both lights brighten (top) or dim (bottom) as expected.
It seems the only problem is the associated switch not reacting to double-taps.
I do have a third switch installed nearby that I could (temporarily) set up as a “sending” switch (add the same associations to the same “receiving” switch) if that would provide a helpful data point.
Whelp, this is interesting: after setting up the same two associations on the third VZW31-SN switch, controlling the same “receiving” VZW31-SN, it behaves as expected — a double-tap on the third switch moves both lights to the level set in parameters 55/56.
Any theories? (The behavior of the original switch has not changed.)
The association on the third switch continues to work correctly to send the 2x up/down message to the second switch, but the first switch still does not — the first switch only adjust its own lights to the levels in params 55/56, but not the second switch (even though it has the same associations as the third switch…)
