    TreatLife 3 Way Smart Dimmer Switch (DS02S)
    Flashing OpenBeken on BK7231T TreatLife 3 Way Smart Dimmer Switch (DS02S): A Guide
    A 3 way smart switch with dimmer.

    This allows you to turn on and off a light with dimming capabilities
    This device was originally supported by Tasmota (Tasmota Docs).

    Pretty straight forward to get this flashed to OpenBeken. The below image shows the pinout and the important MCU reset pull low. Connect 3.3V power, ground, your tx/rx pins and pull the MCU's nReset pin low (MCU Datasheet) and then flash using the flash tool BK7231GUIFlashTool (BK7231GUIFlashTool).

    Below is an excerpt from the Tasmota docs showing the dpid values.

    Code: text Expand Select all Copy to clipboard
    The “DpId”:1 line shows the switch’s on/off status
“DpId”:2 shows the current brightness value (you have to convert it from HEX to decimal and divide by 10 get the percentage: “DpIdData”:”00000182” converts from HEX 182 to decimal 386/10=38.6%.
“DpId”:3 shows the current minimum brightness (also need to convert from HEX to decimal and divide by ten: “DpIdData”:”0000000A” = 1.0%)
“DpId”:4 shows the current dimmer mode (00 is definitely “Mode 1” from the stock Tuya/Smart Life firmware).

    Hello, this "dimmer mode" is a new thing to me, but I still think it should be easy to configure this device.
    Code: text Expand Select all Copy to clipboard
    

startDriver TuyaMCU
setChannelType 1 toggle
setChannelType 2 dimmer
tuyaMcu_setDimmerRange 0 1000
linkTuyaMCUOutputToChannel 1 1 1
linkTuyaMCUOutputToChannel 2 2 2

    Wouldn't that be enough? The other two parms might work well with default values, let's try.
    If not, please provide the log, with debug messages included.

    What do you mean by "disconnecting relay from input"? This device is using TuyaMCU. The TuyaMCU processes both touch buttons and dimming. I don't think it's possible to hack TuyaMCU to detach on/off functionality from that. It is only easily doable when device is using WiFi module for main processing.
    You could maybe cut the traces from TuyaMCU to buttons and reroute them to WiFi module unused GPIOs, that could work...
    Of course that's assuming I understood you well.

    Btw, is this device using CB3S or WB3S?

    Thank you for your help! When I have a chance, I will get that setup and do some testing. I really appreciate your time and assistance!

    It sounds as if you understood my 'disconnecting' request correctly and I believe you probably are right on the fact that it won't be as straightforward as I would like considering the MCU is handling all the input processing. I recently retrofitted a fan to a 3-way switch and wanted to be more easily able to control the smart lights and the fan controller from what appears to be a single switch on the wall (aka this switch as it would provide on/off for the lights and 'dimmer' slide-like increments for the fan speeds). I know Tasmota offered an option to disconnect the input from the relay but, like I noted above, you're probably right given the MCU is doing the lifting here and don't believe the Tasmota version would work either. I will have to do some more research into if there may be a better solution up to and potentially making the traveler connected switches just dumb switches with input monitoring via a Shelly or similar device.

    The switch is currently using the WB3S.

    Again, thank you so much for your help! If you have any other questions around the switch, let me know. Happy to keep poking at it beyond using your example config above.

    we also obviously have that, you can script channels anyway you want, you can use Btn_ScriptOnly and manually script Click, DblClick, 3 and 4x click events to for example run timers or toggle relays or anything, but still, in your case all processing is done on MCU, so the only way to go is to reroute trace to the WiFi module.

    Hmm if you want to have external switch you can always use Tasmota Device Group support, put any Tasmota or OBK switch into the same group as this switch, and they will power on/off in sync.

    Ok, so now... please test the config and if you need anything more, I'm here to help

    I spoke too soon, the button on the physical device was working as expected but I am not getting any sort of control from the web interface toggle. The state is not updating nor does the dimmer appear to be doing anything.

    Go to the Web App, enable all logs (debug ones also), do you get TuyaMCU packets?

    Try rebooting device, or totally powering it off for few seconds and again turn on.

    Do you get any kind of TyuaMCU communication working?

    Hey there!

    Sharing a photo of the latest (to my knowledge) board with the WB3S chip. Board is labelled v2.1, with a revision date of 2020/06/23.

    Not sure if I am missing something, but I can't seem to pull a bus connection. Were you connecting to the RX/TX on the chip itself, or going through the board pins? Do you have an updated diagram which you used with the Beken-chip version?

    Solution is in the first post. It's a TuyaMCU device, you have to reset the MCU or cut traces to avoid interference.

    I’ll give it another shot later. I tried both the “alligator clip to short” and “press and hold” methods - but neither seemed to work. The photo also described grounding GPIO-0, was that necessary here?

    Is your MCU in TSSOP 28-Pin case? Check the linked datasheet where the nRESET pin exactly is.

    I don't think that GPIO0 means anything for Beken, it's not needed

    Remember to do a firmware read and backup first.

    Thanks! I think it was my attempt at grounding NRST - I went ahead and just soldered to the pad near the bottom of the board (with the button) after tracing it from the MCU. Flashed a handful of different BK chips now, slowly getting the hang of branching out to new devices - most just didn't have a Tuya MCU, so it was a bit more straightforward.

    Appreciate all the work here, this OpenBeken project is coming along pretty awesome!

    Apologies for not replying earlier, I was away and unable to get to provide any information you were looking for.

    Looking at the logs I am not seeing any entries about TuyaMCU appearing, please see the excerpt below (this is post reboot as you requested). Mostly looks to be just ap and mqtt checks. I have also added (from the native UI) a screenshot showing that it appears the mcu driver is loaded. I can wait a while and also post later logs as well if need be. What else can I do to help figure out what is going on? Again, I really appreciate your help!

    In Web App, set log level to Extra Debug, then keep log open, then clear log, then reboot device (while keeping log open) and show log starting from the very start of the device. Your log starts at Time = 71 seconds, which is above one minute of uptime already.

    @Matt_J , you also seem to have this device, is it working for you?

    I toggled the state on via the web interface, went to inspect and didn't see any change. I physically pushed the on button of the switch, saw the lights come on, and then turned it back off. This may be the output found in the log, otherwise it is just the repeated heart beat as seen above.

    There are no heartbeats at all.
    Try different baud rate.
    Common baud rates are 9600 bit/s and 115200 bit/s, the 9600 is default one.
    Alter your autoexec.bat to read:
    Code: text Expand Select all Copy to clipboard
    
tuyaMcu_setBaudRate 115200 

    somewhere after startDriver TuyaMCU and try again.


    Another possibility to check would be to turn off the powersave. Remove "PowerSave" line if you have it. Maybe it somehow interferes with TuyaMCU.

    That would appear to be it! It is now working as expected. I can now control it from the web UI. Thank you so much for your help! I am going to edit the first post with these notes so that way anyone else that needs it has the information available.

    Next up is doing the home assistant mqtt side of things. I will edit the first post for that when I get to it as well.

    I really appreciate all the help p.kaczmarek2!

    I'm late to the party :) looks like it was resolved. EDIT: the addition of the 115200 baud rate fixed things for me too.

    I've also got different variants of the Treatlife series and I'll post some configs for those under separate threads (DS02 - single pole dimmer, DS02F - fan variant).

    Hi Everyone,

    So I followed the guide and flashed a DS02S (But single pole instead of 3 way, weird I know) with version 2.1 board successfully.
    I got it connected to my wifi and homeassistant, but I'm experiencing 2 odd behaviors.

    If it is not connected to the MQTT server and is manually turned ON after a small period of time it turns OFF.
    If it's turned OFF and loses its connection to the MQTT server upon reconnect it turns back ON.

    Is there anything I can do about this?

    Thanks for all the hard work, this is the first device I've tried to flash and I'm looking forward to doing more.

    Maybe it's again the WiFi state issue and you need to put

tuyaMcu_defWiFiState 4

    in your autoexec.bat, after starting TuyaMCU driver?

    Hi Everyone,

    Adding tuyaMcu_defWiFiState 4 resolved the issue with it turning off after a short time without a MTQQ connection.

    I've got another weird behavior, if I change the brightness using the web UI to a value below 10 it doesn't adjust the brightness. Setting the value to something above 10 works as expected.

    Here I dim the light to 40 using the web UI (the brightness changes) then set it to 2 (nothing happens)

    Thanks again

    Added after 1 [hours] 48 [minutes]:

    Figured it out just needed to adjust the dimmer range in the config.

    tuyaMcu_setDimmerRange 100 1000

    works nicely.

    Added after 33 [minutes]:

    So after some source code reading and fiddling I've figured out the following:

    dpId 4 corresponds with the dimming mode (Valid values are 0,1,2)
    dpId 3 corresponds with the minimum dimming level (Valid values range is 10 - 1000)

    I'm using tuyaMcu_sendState in my autoexec bat to send the values

    So my autoexec.bat now looks like:

    Thank you for sharing information. This is very useful.

    I am aware about some devices being problematic without wifi state 0x04. I am considering making a 0x04 global default so even without MQTT all devices think that they are connected to cloud, but I am not sure yet if it's safe to do such a global breaking change in one of the updates.

    I followed the templates provided in this thread. The web GUI now shows a toggle button for power, and a slider for the dimmer. Unfortunately, whenever I toggle the power, a few seconds after I hear the relay click, the state reverts back to the original state in the GUI. For instance, if the GUI is showing it is ON, I click the button, it shows OFF, the relay clicks, then the GUI reverts back to ON, but without the relay changing state.

    Could this be an issue with OpenBeken? I was having the exact same problem when I flashed the device with ESPhome, which was the whole reason for trying to use OpenBeken instead. Anybody know how to solve the issue?

    This looks correct.

    Let's investigate more.

    Do a fresh reboot of the device (turn off mains totally).

    Open OBK page.

    Press the physical button on the device (NOT in OBK panel) - does OBK follow the state of the device correctly?

    Press physical button on the device again - did OBK follow the state?

    And press physical button again - did OBK follow the state?

    I am asking because I want to know whether OBK is able to "receive" the changes that are made on the device by touching physical touch button.
