I have a push button wall switch ( https://www.niko.eu/en/article/170-00000 ) in a bedroom. Short presses turn on and off the lights and long pressing let them dim up and down. The dimmer for the fluorescent T5 tubes is an Eltako EUD12Z-UC (https://www.eltako.com/fileadmin/down…internet_en.pdf).
Is it possible to automate this by adding a shelly behind the wall switch or in the electrical cabinet ? And which Shelly should i use for that ?
This is my first time installing a shelly and now i am wondering if i understood it all wrong and bought the wrong device for the job.
In a bedroom we have T5 TL lamps op top of a wardrobe. those are dimmable.
There are simple impulse wall switches at the moment. Just a short push switches on and off the lights in their previous state of brightness. A longer press dims up or down.
There are now two wall switches that do the same thing for these fluorescent lights.
Now i wanted to add a shelly to be able to add a remote button.
I thought for dimming i need the dimmer 2, but now i am starting to think that maybe it is not needed because i think the dimming is done by those eltako's in the electric cabinet ?
I installed it as you can see in the photos attached.
When i start calibration it dims up or down but then stops and says it fails. Also not sure what settings i should use for this setup.
Thanks for any feedback ..
