I have two VZW31-SN switches configured for a virtual 3-way. Pressing the paddle on either switch causes the load (5-bulb chandelier) to operate as expected - on/off/dimmer, and the LEDs on the switches stay synchronized. But when I operate the light from Alexa things get… odd. The switch with the l…

Associate group 3 as well. You need 2, 3 and 4 done for it to work right.

Can you setup associations between the two devices? That’s what I do and they stay synchronized all the time. I don’t use Hubitat.

I have associations setup, in both directions (switch with load to virtual, and vice-versa). The associations work fine, as long as the action (on/off/dimmer) is performed at the switch. When the command comes from the Hubitat, the dimmer level does not get updated on the virtual switch. The on/off …

With Zigbee, I do not know what you mean by associations. Isn’t that a Z-Wave term? I thought Zigbee bindings was essentially the same thing as Z-Wave associations.

I have two groups. What is the third group you are asking about?

There is apparently some confusion in the post, lol. My question is about a z-wave association, not Zigbee. My switches are VZW31. I have four associations total, two for group 2 (load switch → virtual switch, and virtual switch → load switch) and two for group 4 (same). The associations work nicel…

Thank you for the suggestion. I associated group 3 both directions, but it did not change the behavior.

I stand corrected. The switches now work exactly as expected. I tried them again just now (about 3 hours after creating the group 3 associations) and the virtual switch dimmer level is now kept in sync with the load switch when commanded from the hub (and Alexa). Thank you for the fix!

Did you set all 3 groups?
