Fibaro RGB Controller

#1

1) Give a description of the problem
I have a Fibaro RGB controller that is plugged into a dedicated electrical outlet that is controlled by a smart ZWave wall switch. I want to keep the wall switch and the Fibaro in sync as far as power goes. So if I tell the Fibaro to turn off then I want the light switch to turn off. Same goes for turning on. If both are turned off and I turn the switch on, the Fibaro controller is still turned off. Is there a way to keep the 2 devices in sync as far as power goes?

2) What is the expected behavior?
If I turn on the Fibaro RGB controller I want the wall switch to be set to off, same goes for turning on.

I am very very knew to webCore. It looks to be very cool but I am just having a hard time wrapping my head around getting this problem I am trying to solve. Maybe I am over thinking it.

Thanks

Something like this should work for you. If you need an example thrown together, let me know:

IF
Fibaro/Wall Switch changes to ON
(Do this by select both devices, make sure the orange box says “Any devices”)
Then
With Fibaro Turn On
With Wall switch Turn On

Create a new condition:
IF
Fibaro/Wall Switch changes to OFF
(Do this by select both devices, make sure the orange box says “Any devices”)
Then
With Fibaro Turn Off
With Wall switch Turn Off

Thanks so much for the reply. That makes sense. Now I am wondering of I did everything correctly. Hopefully my screenshot below is viewable and you can tell me if I did this correctly.

You got it! If you have any troubles with that piston acting up, post back in here and we’ll get it fixed.

You shouldn’t really be powering the Fibaro from a smart switch… should be on permenant live.

I can’t see the sync behaving very well as the Fibaro needs a few seconds to reconnect to the mesh after being powered up.
