Qubino Luxy Smart Switch

Installation via Domoticz:

Next in line to test the Luxy is Domoticz. This is an open source system that can run on different hardware. We test it with an RPI and Aeotec Z-Wave USB Stick.

First we remove the power from the old switch, then we unscrew it and placed the Luxy smart switch according to the supplied schematic. Make sure you have a blue wire in your wall socket, otherwise you cannot connect it.

The next step is to log in to the Domoticz and go to "Setup", "Hardware" and then go to setup again at the USB stick.

Then click on "include node secure" to start adding. To see the power module and perform the following actions: press 1x right button (3), then press 1x bottom button (4). The LED will turn white and then press and hold the right button (3) for 4-6 seconds. The LED will now flash green and light up fully after 10 seconds. I see it has been added and all configuration options are available.

When we go to our devices I see an on/off switch, RGBW switch, Wattage and KWH. To control these I add them to my dashboard.

At first the relay/connected lamp could not operate, but after installing the Beta from Domoticz it did.

Control:

I can dim the LED, turn it on/off and change color. I can also turn the relay on/off. I also see the total consumption and current consumption of the connected lamp (relay).

Example event:

You can of course automate different kinds of things. For example, if your alarm goes off, you could make the LED turn red. We have the alarm in Domoticz but use the sunset as an example. This can of course be any kind of trigger.

Because we cannot set a color directly from blocky, I first create a scene. I use this scene in blocky to make the LED red.
