  • Flash orignal firmware to shelly dimmer 2

    Hi,

    I hope someone can help.

    I've been trying to convert my shelly dimmer 2 back to shelly firmware from tasmota.

    I am comfortable flashing using a serial connection.

    I've used several ways, the closest I get is by using this tool: https://github.com/yaourdt/tasmota-to-mgos

    The problem is that the firmware file I download from the filebase does not seem to work correctly. I end with a half broken device that only shows me an index page with a listing of files:

    Code
    Index of /
Name    Modified    Size
passwd    01-Jan-1970 00:00    46
cert.pem    01-Jan-1970 00:00    1.1k
stm.bin    01-Jan-1970 00:00    37.5k
index.html.gz    01-Jan-1970 00:00    65.3k
conf0.json    01-Jan-1970 00:00    3
hwinfo_struct.json    01-Jan-1970 00:00    112
conf9.json    01-Jan-1970 00:00    270
Mongoose/6.18

    this clearly is not correct.

    I can correctly flash the Shelly Dimmer (1) recovery firmware. After that I have a seemingly functioning device, that I can update through the web interface. The only problem: the device now thinks it's a dimmer 1 not a dimmer 2. I don't know if this matters, but I assume I should want to have the correct firmware on it.
    I can not through the normal route update a dimmer 1 firmware with a dimmer 2 firmware, it seems to not accept that.

    Any thoughts?

  • "Rotary Switch" Button type

    Hi,

    After updating the firmware on my dimmer I found the option "rotary switch" under the possible "button types".

    I was looking for more info on this but could only find a reference to a guide where the creator flashes alternative firmware instead of the shelly firmware, I'm guessing that 'old information'.

    I emailed shelly with my questions but heard that this option is not supported (yet), which surprises me, since the option is clearly in the released firmware.. I'm guessing this might still be very new??

    Is there anyone out there that knows how to use this awesome feature? How to wire up the rotary switch, what kinds might be supported?

    Thanks a lot!
