Hello! I have 10 White Series Dimmers in my house, connected to SmartThings. I also picked up a pack of Ikea Bilresa scroll wheel remotes, which as the name suggests, includes a wheel control as well as a button.
In SmartThings, setting up the scroll wheel, there is an option to “control devices by rotating” which further allows you to “Adjust brightness” or “Adjust color temperature” of compatible devices. Unfortunately, when I try to select one of these, the only devices listed are the switch devices themselves (as in, I can use the wheel to adjust the LED bar on the switch) but not the lights they control. Also strangely, but useful for debugging, only 4 of my 10 switches show up in the list, and I’m not sure what’s different about those 4.
However! Looking through the devices in the advanced SmartThings panel shows that what these devices have in common is that they support the following commands: statelessSwitchLevelStep and statelessColorTemperatureStep. I hoped that I could maybe find an easy way to hack support for the former into the official White series ST driver, but it looks like the source on github is pretty outdated and doesn’t include anything from the white series.
So, three questions:
- Is it possible to add support for the statelessSwitchLevelStep command in the controlled light’s drivers?
- Is there anything I can do to help with #1?
- Does anybody have any guesses why only four of my ten switches support these commands?
- All but two of the switches have neutral setups. The ones without neutral are not among the ones that support the stateless commands.
- The ones that show up seem to be the ones I installed first, but I don’t remember if I’ve unpaired/reset them since installing the ones that don’t show up.
- All the switches are using app version 2.3.66-1, using the Inovelli White Series driver from the official Inovelli Edge Driver channel, version 2026-08-31T23:02:46.xxxxx
- All were purchased at the same time, and all are running 1.1.5 firmware.
