I recently installed an Aeotec Nano Dimmer in my bedroom and connected it to my Homey system. It’s been a great addition, but I noticed that the ramp rate—the time it takes for the lights to transition from off to on after pressing the switch—was quite slow. This was a bit frustrating, especially when I wanted the lights to come on more quickly in the mornings.
After some research, I discovered that the ramp rate is customizable by adjusting Parameter 125. However, I wasn’t entirely sure how to go about changing the parameters. I reached out to the community for guidance and was pleasantly surprised by the helpful responses I received.
One user suggested using the Raw Configuration Parameters feature in Homey. They explained that I needed to input the ID, size, and value for Parameter 125. With their assistance, I figured out the correct format and successfully adjusted the ramp rate to my liking.
The process was a bit nerve-wracking at first, but it turned out to be straightforward once I had the right information. Now, my lights transition smoothly and quickly, making my mornings much more enjoyable.
I’d like to share a quick tip for anyone else looking to adjust their Aeotec Nano Dimmer’s ramp rate: take your time to understand the parameters and don’t hesitate to ask for help. The community here is incredibly supportive, and with a little guidance, you can make your smart home work exactly how you want it to.
Happy dimming everyone!
