First of all: I use a RaspBee II on an RPi4 in a HassOS / Home Assistant installation, up to here everything works - except for the Fyrtur blinds
I am also aware of the git issue “DDF for Ikea Fyrtur roller blind #6110” and that the new, correct DDF has been added to version 2.21.0.
The Phoscon app via Home Assistant is version 2.21.2, so I should be able to connect and control the blind without any problems.
However, when I try to pair the Fyrtur blind (as a light) I don’t see any device. In the deCONZ App/Rest API I only get a device with the name “battery” or something similar. Of course, I also tried to pair the range extender that came with the Fyrtur blind first, which worked perfectly. The result with the roller blind itself remains the same.
On the Discord server, Mimiix said to me today that the DDF might not have loaded properly. How can I make sure it loads properly?
Or is there possibly another solution?
If any further information is needed, let me know.
We just got a Fyrtur delivered, only had Kadrilj so far for testing, I’ll do some comparison tests next week. I think they should work the same but the DDFs are quite different.
btw: after the last pairing I got a new device in Home Assistant, also called “Battery 5” but it only shows the battery status of the fyrtur blind, I think (it shows 50%, but the battery was fully loaded yesterday). It has no other controls available.
Then, it seems that it was paired correctly, recognized by DeConz as a “Window covering device” and certainly a battery sensor was created (that’s why it’s so called “battery 5”).
You told that you get a “battery” thing in REST-API then I just wanted to know what is displayed from REST-API , what you’re showing is DeCONZ, not REST-API (Introduction - deCONZ REST-API)
okay, that was my fault then. I thought deCONZ is the rest-api, as I described it on another place with “a chart with modules/device that are connected via a drawn line” nobody said it’s not the rest api, so I thought my guess is correct and didn’t know it better
Ok then, when it’s paired “correctly”, why I don’t get any controls over the blind or do I need to setup anything else?
I mean, I paired it as described in many how to’s (range extender as light in phoscon app and then the blind as light in phoscon app, after that both should be showing up in phoscon app, but just the range extender is there).
Phoscon is also based on REST-API but as closed software. That’s why I asked for what rest-api is displaying. That way we try to see where is the trouble (if there is one).
You can get it first using Phoscon (Help/API information)
Ok, so in Phoscon I can’t get any API Information about that “battery” device, because it isn’t shown there. The api information only shows the range extender.
Can I get those api information via deconz app also?
After selecting the “Battery 5” device, the “Basic Cluster”, in the “Clsuter info” can you click on “read” button and after that Ctrl+E and “preview” tab ?
You have take a look in “sensor” and “light” section, because like have said @BabaIsYou is the name is changed in deconz, it mean the device is reconised somewhere in the API.
You can too check if DDF are enabled and if your device use it, in deconz / help / debug view, can just enable flag “DDF” to test and re-include the device, the flag “info” can be usefull too.
The last @BabaIsYou procedure can show you the DDF used by your device too.
But how can I access it? I installed deconz/phoscon/etc. as an integration for home assistant. I did nothing by hand or edited something.
should I delete/reinstall that deconz home assistant integration? fortunately I have nothing important paired with my RaspBee atm.
Could this clear things up for me?
