✅ Fibaro HC3/HC3L
✅ Standalone
The Bond plugin will quickly add your Bond bridge to your Fibaro controller.
- Blinds will be supported with Open/Close & Stop Actions
- Fireplaces, Fans & Generic Devices will be supported and will dynamically add the required buttons (HC3/HC3L only)
* Before you being this process, please ensure that you have connected your Bond Bridge to your home network and setup and configured your blinds via the Bond app.
This guide assumes that you have already purchased the Bond plugin from within the automationbridge interface.
Step 1 - Click the Add button under the Bond logo to begin.
Step 2 - The Bond bridge will now be discovered on your network, and if successful its IP address will be automatically entered, if not, then manually enter its IP address, then you need to locate the access token from the Bond App.
Step 3 - It will now try and connect to the Bond bridge, setting up the required authentication. Click Next to proceed.
Step 4 - It will now fully connect and retrieve the available devices.
Click OK to proceed to the plugin settings page, from here you can perform a Sync to add new devices for existing hubs, or add subsequent hubs.
If you are using the Fibaro HC3 controller, you will find Virtual Device(s) has been created for each of the corresponding Bond device.
For example Blinds are created like this, with the Open/Close & Stop actions.
Other devices will be created as a binary switch device, if other actions are defined in the Bond app for these, they will also be added to the Quick App, for example for a Fireplace.
Please Note : While the automationbridge maintains a link to the Bond bridge to receive any status/position changes, using the original remote with a device will NOT be picked up by the Bond bridge, and therefore unable to be updated within the automationbridge.
This completes the Bond setup, now you can navigate back to the home page of the automationbridge, and enable as required for each device and smart home integration.
And then link to each platform by following these instructions.
