3 years ago Which device handler are you using with these dimmers? I am using mwav3's device handler without any issues with HomeKit. I am actually having the opposite problem where my light switches are not being detected as switches by Hoobs.

3 years ago Thanks for sharing this. I moved recently from Wink to SmartThings due to Wink’s new subscription model and was unaware of device handlers. They weren’t needed with Wink at least for me.
The code you referenced didn’t really do what I was after. It added a series of buttons but it was unclear exactly how they are to be used. I suppose presets or something like that.
What did work, and somewhat less than perfect, was to use the fan I found at: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/constjs/jcdevhandlers/master/devicetypes/jscgs350/my-ge-fan-control-switch.src/my-ge-fan-control-switch.groovy
It shows as a fan unfortunately, but does give me the dimming capabilities I was looking for.

3 years ago I am using the fan DTH as well - I have 2 models of GE/Jasco dimmers, nothing else works. I've been trying to hack the fan control switch to show as a switch or light, rather than a spinning fan (homebridge UI and Apple Home) which is somewhat distracting, but no luck so far. My first attempt at hacking device handlers so lots to learn. I have yet to figure out what makes these "fans".
