Useful References for the Shelly Button1

  • Thought these references would be of use:

    • Direct Device to Device communication (DDD) . This is a particularly helpful reference as it covers the http:// calls to the various devices from the Action page of the Shelly Button1 webpage. There is also similar information posted here on this website
    • Shelly Family API Overview. Useful from a developers perspective, not so sure about how helpful it is when dealing with direct calls to other shelly devices from the Shelly Button1?

  • Key for the Shelly Button1 Indicator LED Colours: (from Shelly - Technical support)

    • Blue: static.: the device is acting as an Access point.
    • Blue: blinking fast: the device is trying to move from AP to client mode.
    • Blue: continuous blinking: the device is connected to cloud or MQTT.
    • Blue: After use of the reset button: the device blinks in blue until the 5th second when it then starts to blink faster.
    • Note: The blue light is only seen when it is attached to a powered USB.
    • White (also looks like light blue): Blinking continuously. This takes place after the button has been pushed (once, twice or three times).
    • White: Blinking: .Follows the release of the button. This continues until there is feedback that the command has been received from the cloud, MQTT or action URL.
    • White: Single blink followed by no light: If there is no feedback from the three above mentioned sources, the LED blinks white and then the device goes into sleep mode.
    • Green: blink: command has been received.
    • Red: static: the command has not been completed

    Thanks for this information. :thumbup:

    • White: Blinking: .Follows the release of the button. This continues until there is feedback that the command has been received from the cloud, MQTT or action URL.

    For me this white led strobes for what seems like 30 seconds and is very bright especially at night. Is there a way to shorten that strobe or turn it off? I couldn't find anything in the web interface for the button other than turning the WiFi blue led off.

    I should also mention the Shelly button is interacting with home assistant and running an automation. Could this be a setting in home assistant?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.
