I recently upgraded my home lighting system with Leviton VRMX1-1LZ dimmers, aiming for seamless integration with my SmartThings setup. The goal was to achieve instantaneous scene triggering, but I encountered a slight delay—around 0.5 to 2 seconds—when using the dimmers to activate scenes. This delay, while minor, was noticeable and slightly frustrating, especially when expecting a more polished smart home experience.
After some research, I came across advice suggesting that including the dimmers directly with the hub could significantly reduce latency. I purchased a VRCPG programmer remote, hoping it would facilitate this process. However, I’m still unclear on the exact steps to include the dimmers directly with the hub for the fastest response times. If anyone has successfully done this or has tips, I’d greatly appreciate the guidance!
In the meantime, I’ve been experimenting with different configurations and have found that using the dimmers in conjunction with SmartThings routines works adequately, though I’m eager to eliminate that last bit of delay for a truly seamless experience. It’s been a fascinating learning process, and I’m excited to continue refining my setup for optimal performance.
