TX Ultimate 4 Gang US (T5-4-120)

[mon3y78]

Hi, I'm having some issues with the TX Ultimate 4 Gang US (T5-4-120):

The NeoPixel Light doesn't fully illuminate (photo attached).
When I press the buttons, the corresponding light doesn't turn on.
I've read the posts about other errors but haven't found a correct solution. Considering that the LEDs on the longer sides are 10, could it be correct to illuminate for L1 from 1 to 3, L2 from 3 to 5, L3 from 5 to 8, L4 from 8 to 10?

I've tried to figure out what to change in the code, but I can't get it right! Any help or solution?

It seems 4 channel isn't supported. I have EU version and it works only half.

Same here. Simple Explanation (I think): Our switch (T5-4C-120), has 32 LEDs, but only 28 are addressed in @danielscheidler's firmware. Therefore no 100% border with light with the Rainbow effect and also not with the night light or NeoPixel light. Perhaps Daniel finds some time and passion for adding a config for this 4 Gang switch. I could lend one model and provide some monetary reimbursement for the effort.

I could also join with a beer or a coffee! 🍻

@mon3y78, that would be so great, thanks a lot. For what I see now (not tested that much due to other projects), the config has to be revised to achieve the following:

• Activation of the fourth switch
• Activation of all 32 LEDs instead of 28 by now.
• Activation of the correct LED in case of action -> matching the light to the corresponding switch when it is activated and is later also active. Example: In my case, the bottom right-hand corner lights up when the top switch is active, which looks strange. Shouldn't the LED on the right or left (or both) at the height of the switch light up?

Can you get this working?

You can try https://github.com/mon3y78/4gangus/blob/main/4gangus.yaml.

The only problem that remains is the one with the side LEDs.

Hi @mon3y78,

thanks for the link. I just installed it, works perfectly with restriction of the lighting for the 4th switch. Is this what you meant by "The only problem that remains is the one with the side LEDs"? I see, you identified the correct side-LEDs and within the device settings in HA, I can turn on and off LEDs for switch 4. The only thing I see, is that they don't turn on/off automatically when pushing the button 4. On switch 1-3 that works fine. Is this the only issue you have with the configuration?

good evening, has anyone managed to make the lights work on relay4, if so what did they do?

good evening, has anyone managed to make the lights work on relay4, if so what did they do?

Try this:
In the script REFRESH_LED_DEFAULT change the first part of the condition ${relay_count}>1 with ${relay_count}==4 for all the "if" and not change the second part of the condition.

Let me know

[mon3y78]

I am using the code I posted earlier. The buttons themselves work. The only problem is with Neopixel. Have you try?

[coraado]

the ultimate tx must arrive, I'm reading up on it as soon as it arrives, I'll try and let you know

[coraado]

hi, I flashed but the lights on relay 4 don't work, I noticed that when relay 4 is activated, button 4 doesn't activate, because if you activate it manually the LEDs light up, so you need to understand why button 4 doesn't activate automatically when you activate the relay 4

[Zagor4]

@coraado have you tryied this?

Try this:

[coraado]

done it works
Thank you

[Zagor4]

@coraado have you got the left side leds problem?

[coraado]

no

[Zagor4]

@coraado so if you switch on the nightlight you see all the perimeter of the device with light?

[coraado]

lights up everything around, everything ok

[Zagor4]

I am using the code I posted earlier. The buttons themselves work. The only problem is with Neopixel. Have you try?

@mon3y78 please read the last Coraado's comment... Could be possible that you have an hardware problem on your device ?
Are you sure that left side leds of your TX ultimate are ok and not burned ?

[mon3y78]

@Zagor4 I remember that with the original firmware it worked. Is it possible to perform a factory reset? Do you know how? I couldn’t find any information online.

[Zagor4]

@mon3y78 is not possible perform a factory reset because when you installed the ESPHome firmware you erased the original firmware overwriting it with the ESPHome one.
I could try to erase the bigger part of the code in order to create a new LED test firmware! (with only one function that switch on and switch off the nightlight. But i need 2 or 3 days... (when i will have freetime)

[mon3y78]

@Zagor4 Thank you for what you do! I’m waiting for your update to run the test!
