I am experiencing the same issue with ikea 5 button controls

[vvac]

Experiencing similar issue with E2001/2002 on ZHA. Same HA Version.

Single press gives correct reusult.
Double press gives single press result.
Triple press gives double press result.

Weird stuff happens.

Try increasing the number for the double press helper until your double press is recognized

[vvac]

If you meant increasing the below parameter:

(Optional) Helper - Double Press delay
Max delay between the first and the second button press for the double press event. Provide a value only if you are using a double press action. Increase this value if you notice that the double press action is not triggered properly.

then it doesn't help, all double/triple presses I wrote about were made within the threshold.

After further testing the state is as follows:

What works as expected

• on left/right buttons: double press works as expected
• on the up/down buttons hold works as expected

What doesnt work as expected

• up/down buttons: double press gives single press result, but it doesn't look like a blueprint problem - when snooping zha_events I can see that double up/down press fires a single event unless they are VERY slow. Double left/right press produces two consecutive events normally.

• left/right buttons long press and hold produce events as follows:

1. Release of left/right
2. Short Press of up/down
3. Press of left/right
4. Hold of left/right
   and finally
5. Relese of left/right

All the above makes me think that the E2001/2002 firmware changed its behavior or the way of handling it by ZHA integration changed as the events aren't fired as expected. Blueprint misbehaviors are the direct effect of the unexpected zha_events being fired/not fired by the integration.

Best,
Tomasz

I'll have to look at over the weekend. Virtual Simulated Double press has been problematic as far as I know and heard from others.

Same issue here with the IKEA E2001/E2002 STYRBAR Remote control. It did work with the earlier controller blueprint from you @yarafie in combination with an older light hook blueprint from 2022 I believe. And also still using the legacy Z2M action entity.

To add to this. This version for the E200/E2002: https://github.com/yarafie/awesome-ha-blueprints/blob/c2f0ea6f93a443302b5302788d4d0b84f5b2915e/blueprints/controllers/ikea_e2001_e2002/ikea_e2001_e2002.yaml works with the 2022.07.03 Hook blueprint for the double press event.
