IKEA STYRBAR - Top 5 Home Assistant Blueprints

[@samiraslan9735]

Thanks for the wonderful video, I used Malte's one but I have an issue!! When dimming/brightening it stops after few steps! I guess you had the same issue in the video. Do you confirm?

[@smart_home_australia]

Yep, my conclusion was that although these are good each of them had an issue. I reverted back to Jeff KRZ, basic but works. When I get some time I plan on building my own.

I was able to import the blueprint (malte) but what do i have to do now? How to connect the lamps and what do i have to enter in the automation stage? I can not find anything online

[@smart_home_australia]

Go to SETTING > AUTOMATIONS and SCENES > BLUEPRINTS. Press the three dots to the right of the blueprint Select CREATE AUTOMATIONS. Now just populate the details and save. Done. :)

@@smart_home_australia thank you but i found that page already but i don't know how to proceed now 😅 it asks for the lamps but how to integrate them? Also i should add commands for the buttons but i never programmed and don't know how i should do that

[@smart_home_australia]

Which lamps do you have and how are you connecting them to Home Assistant? You'll need to integrate those to HA before they become available to be added to the automation based on the blueprint.

Tricky, not that much information. Although it should not need it you could add the following line to your configuration.yaml. websocket_api: This will enable, the websockets API.

Hi. I have the Malte blueprint. Is there an easy way to make left and right to toggle between colors? I have e Govee RGB light and I want left and right to switch colors.

[@smart_home_australia]

Simple answer, nope. I'm working on a some helpers that will cycle through colours that is looking promising and if I perfect it I'll release shortly.

[@darknessblades]

Did they change something to the remote breaking its function with ZHA? since I have one that works easily under ZHA

[@smart_home_australia]

Which of the Blueprints are you talking about? Or do you have a new one? In which case can you share the name of it.

[@darknessblades]

@@smart_home_australia I have a Ikea styrbar that does not need a blueprint to work with automations

[@smart_home_australia]

The Blueprints are there to make things simpler for those that don't understand the nuances of entities, plus some more advanced features such a looped triggers. But you are right, you don't have to use Blueprints.

[@esotericmoniker]

@@darknessblades I've been looking around to see how this could be possible but everything I've found seems to require a blueprint. I add the Styrbar to HA but it has not entities so you can't use it to do anything. What version is your Styrbar firmware, mine is 0x01000020.

5 times didn't do it. I had to puch 3 times. Maybe different FW or area?
