And for those using Home Assistant, there are a couple videos up as well:
Hopefully, the interface hasn’t changed too much since then.

I’m excited to try out this configuration and it should (hopefully) work great. Like @harjms mentioned, the best thing to use is going to be group binding. We may need to make some adjustments on the Hubitat driver to more easily be able to set this up.
You will pass through the power to the modules by either just connecting the line and load with a wire nut, or you can put both wires into the “line” screw on the switch. I believe this is shown in the wiring diagram on the support site. Do you only have one switch location in your gang box for both fans?
Thanks!
Yes, unfortunately only 1 switch, and the fans are daisy chained, so only the 1 hot and 1 load.
Can’t wait to try this, as one of the HBs is offline, and resetting them is a royal PITA!

This is super embarrassing – I set these up in preparation for when they arrived, but I’m scratching my head as to figure out why you got this bc my automations look correct in Shopify. Question for you – did you have an order where you had a partial delivery (ie: you ordered a product that is in stock + the canopy module that is on pre-order)?
I’m wondering if maybe the automation saw the item that was in stock was delivered and just sent you both emails. I have emails set up for each product.
Edit: I just did some stalking and it appears that yes, that is the case with your order. I’ll have to go back to the drawing board on these automations… I’m surprised this hasn’t come up before – thanks for letting me know!

I did, and also got the premature message.

If you still want a “remote” you can look into the now discontinued Lutron Connected Bulb remotes which can be bound to the fan or lightm or other zigbee remotes. There are other battery powered zigbee buttons too.

I thought it may have gone out early since it said I had already received the module. The switches I ordered are sitting on my desk waiting for the module to arrive. Looking forward to getting it all installed and seeing what it can do.

Good idea. To be fair the HB remotes are never used… but I might use your idea and simply emulate a remote with a multibutton device…
Thanks!

Project Update:
Modules are enroute to the US and here are the estimated dates from the manufacturer/freight forwarder.
Estimated Arrival at Port = 2/22
Estimated Arrival at Inovelli HQ = 3/5 (my birthday!)
The manufacturer will be out of office from 2/7 to 2/18 for Chinese New Year, so I won’t be able to track this one as closely as I’d like, but I’d say those dates are pretty conservative based on what we’ve seen in the past.
Those of you that will be using this with the Blue Series 2-1 switch, we will be releasing FW V2.17 that I highly recommend updating to as it has dual bindings which can be used with the canopy. If you can’t update, we’re happy to do it for you here at HQ, but worst case, you’ll be able to bind the paddle to either the fan’s motor or fan’s light and then use scene control for the config button.
It’s been a pleasure working on this one and I’m excited to hear how everyone likes it!

You’ll have to explain that to the plebs like me… I thought that was how it would work already, paddle for light or fan, and config button to cycle the other.
Yeah certainly lol.
Initially we were launching this product along with the 2-1 with the following user experience:
- Install the Canopy Module in the fan and you’ll have remote control of both the fan and light from your app and/or voice control like any normal smart switch
- Then you could install a 2-1 Switch on the wall (if you wanted wall control) and use that switch as a remote to control the canopy module
- The current firmware on the Blue Series 2-1 Switch only supports one endpoint for Zigbee Bindings, so we recommended using the Blue Series 2-1 paddle to control either the light portion of the canopy module or the fan portion (I’ve found that it’s better to control the light) and then use the configuration button to control the fan speed (or lights).
- Since the current firmware on the Blue 2-1 only supports one endpoint of Zigbee Binding, you would use multi-tap scene control for your configuration button (ie: tap 1x = turns on/off the fan, tap 2x = turns fan on low, tap 3x = turns fan on medium, tap 4x = turns fan on high)
However, we wanted the Blue Series 2-1 to have multiple Zigbee Binding endpoints so that if your hub ever went offline, your Zigbee bindings would still work (multi-tap scene control wouldn’t work as it goes through the hub to process), so we had the manufacturer work on the firmware to allow this.
So now, instead of using multi-tap scene control, you will bind a separate endpoint using the configuration button (ie: you’d have one endpoint control the lights via the paddle, and a separate endpoint controlling the fan via the config button).
There are two options to control the fan via the config button:
- Option #1 = Similar to multi-tap scene control in that you’ll tap 1x to turn on the fan, 2x to turn it to low, 3x to turn it to medium, 4x to turn it to high
- Option #2 = Cycle through the speeds in that if you tap it 1x, the fan turns on, tap it 1x again, it goes to low, tap it 1x again it goes to medium, tap it 1x again it goes to high, tap it 1x it turns off
Here’s a YT video of me testing it Option #2:

Just to be clear, this project is for the fan canopy module only. It doesn’t come with an accompanying switch. As Eric explained, you can control the module in a number of ways. Whatever switch you mate it with will need to be programmed to do the requisite actions on the module.
Just bringing this up because you stated you thought that is “how it would work that way already”. It doesn’t ship with a pre-programmed switch. You add your own and program it accordingly.

Hmmmm…I’ll probably have to stick with scene control then, so I can have it cycle off–>high–>medium–>low–>off, as that is the cycle I - and my dad! - are used to with the pull cord. The lower the learning curve, the better 
So you would want it to perform like this:
- Tap 1x = On
- Tap 1x again = Low
- Tap 1x again = Medium
- Tap 1x again = High
- Tap 1x again = Medium
- Tap 1x again = Low
- Tap 1x again = Off
No, I think he just meant
Yeah, what @stephen.brown2 said 
. (Assuming we are starting from off, of course!) At least for all the fans in my house, that’s how the pull chain works: If off and you pull the chain, it turns on high, again medium, again low, again off.
Maybe different fans work differently with the pull chain control? In any case, that’s what i’m used to…
I actually love this, if that coud be the behavior rhat would be nice

When you use the config button to set speed, do you have a visual indicator built in?
I’ve done this through my hub, but it would be nice if it worked with built-in bindings in the firmware.
- One color for the light intensity indicator (white)
- The paddle controls light intensity, and the light bar displays the current level.
- When the Config button is pressed, it controls the fan speed.
- When the fan speed is changed, it temporarily indicates the fan speed on the light bar in a different color (Blue)
- After a set time (10 seconds), the light bar switches back to indicating light level (and other notifications.)

Option #2 sounds great to me. On top of that, I think my preferred setup would be:
- A long-press on the config button turns the fan off, regardless of its current speed
- Other uses of the config button (double-click, triple-click, etc) have no direct effect on the fan module and can be used for scene control to control other devices
If only the latter part is available, I could implement the former through my home automation system. But I’d prefer to have the long-press-to-turn-off work via Zigbee binding directly to the canopy module.
I believe it has been stated elsewhere that the 2-in-1 LED indicator shifts to show fan speed briefly before going back to normal when using the config button, yes. Not sure where I remember that from though…
