How to add new device on HassIO?!

I just bought an “iluminize 511.202” Zigbee dimmer and believed the zigbee2mqtt page that it was super simple to add unsupported devices … xD

However, I just can’t get it to work… I TRIED to follow this guide


And this one

But I can’t even figure out how to

docker ps

to find the Container ID

I have a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ with the “normal” Hassio image on it. I did figure out how to ssh into the base device (not through the addon), but that’s it for me…

So what I tried until now is, I added the devices.js file to share/zigbee2mqtt and enabled "zigbee_shepherd_devices": true
Then I added

    {
        zigbeeModel: ['Schalt-Aktor 511.202'],
        model: '511.202',
        vendor: 'Iluminize',
        description: 'Zigbee 3.0 Schalt-Aktor 200W ',
        extend: generic.light_onoff_brightness,
    },

and restarted the addon.

Then I enabled devices join and put the dimmer into pairing mode - even though it seems it was (correctly?!) added to the database.db and devices.yaml files …

and:

'0x14b457abcde2c7c7':
  friendly_name: '0x14b457abcde2c7c7'
  retain: true

… the logs, still say:

  zigbee2mqtt:warn 8/1/2019, 6:15:39 PM Device with modelID '511.202' is not supported.
  zigbee2mqtt:warn 8/1/2019, 6:15:39 PM Please see: https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/how_tos/how_to_support_new_devices.html

BTW: The dimmer seems to be exactly the same hardware as the ROBB ROB_200-004-0, Sunricher ZG9101SAC-HP and iCasa ICZB-IW11D

Anyone can help?! Or point me into the right direction?! a “for Dummies” guide would be highly appreciated

Hello, i have had the same problem here. you must set “zigbeeModel: [‘511.202’]” and set model to the name you decided.
Greetings!

Thanks - that kind of works … however, brightness does not work :frowning:

And also, zigbee2mqtt crashes a couple of minutes after I started it now - don’t know if that’s related or not

EDIT: also, it was not auto detected, but I had to add it manually to Home Assistant … is that normal?

EDIT2: I just found out, that this device does not support dimming … lol - great advertising on their part… fooled me :woman_shrugging:

There is an similar device with the same size that supports dimming. It’s the 511.201 dimm-aktor.
I’m not using Home Assistant so i can’t tell if this is normal or not
