The plugin has only been tested with a limited number of devices, mostly just what I have at my home.
There was no list of tested devices so I just created one in the Wiki: https://github.com/awahlig/homebridge-casambi/wiki/Tested-devices
Thanks for the screenshots. First step in debugging the problem with your control unit would be to take a look at the Homebridge logs. Could you provide them?
Also, does the state in HomeKit change when you switch the light using the physical controls or the Casambi App?
Hi and thanks for the reply. So I went to check the issue again and record the log. I checked and the Homebridge and Home icons for my accessory were both responding to commands initiated on the Casambi APP. So I could see that the device was switching on/off. I then had a look at the log and I noticed it seemed to be searching for a scene and I guessed that maybe there needed to be an on or off scene available for Home/Homebridge to work so I created one and straight away I had control of the device in both Home and Homebridge. I then deleted the scene just to be sure and now I have control of the device in all three apps even without a scene on Casambi. So I'm not really sure what the issue was but following is the log that I recorded from today which shows activity before I created the scene, with the scene in place and finally after I deleted the scene. Hope this helps and makes sense. Ignore the scenes referred to in 159 IP address, this is not connected to the Casambi

Thanks for the log, it confirms that your device is supported by the plugin. Like the luminaries that I tested, it exposes a "dimmer" control type so from the point of view of the plugin, it works the same way. I've added it to the list of tested devices.
Creating and deleting the scene should have no impact.
In my experience, a more likely reason why it didn't work before is some kind of a problem communicating with the device. The commands go from the Homebridge plugin to the Casambi servers, then to your Gateway device over WiFi and from there to the light or control unit over Bluetooth. There's a lot that can go wrong on that path, particularly with the Gateway device, which must be in radio range of WiFi and Bluetooth and running the Casambi app at all times. Personally I had problems finding a good spot for it with no interference.
I'll close the issue for now, let me know if you'll keep having problems.
I have been trying out this plugin and have made some progress. I have successfully set it up on Homebridge and my accessory (a CBU-ASD https://casambi.com/ecosystem/cbu-asd/ ) is visible both in the Homebridge accessories page and also in the Homekit page, see screen shots. I can switch the icon on/off in both HomeBrdige and Homekit and it looks like everything is working but the light does not switch off. I am able to control the light as expected in the Casambi APP without any problem. I was wondering if this is because the CBU-ASd is not a conventional dimmer. Is there a list of compatible Casambi devices that have been tested with this plugin?
