I am using homebridge-zipabox-platform v1.8.0 in the accessories type list I do not see dimmer as Type of accessory, anything special needed to enable it?

Hello,

I think you talk about the list found inside the plugin parameters from the config-ui interface. I check and yes, I forgot to add this type inside the drop down list. But you can still configure it directly in your config.json.

Follow this process :

  1. Configure through the config-ui plugin parameters like a simple light
  2. Save - No reboot needed
  3. Go to the tab "Config" in config-ui
  4. Found your light and change the parameter from "type": "light" to "type" : "dimmer"
  5. Save and reboot

Let me know if this work or not.
