Dimmer Switch RGB notification not configurable?

Home Assistant user here. I have the new Red series dimmer and I just got all the fancy scenes set up. I can’t seem to get the notification LEDs to respond to me though. I’ve tried everything here to no avail, including the Node Red custom node.

zwave.set_config_parameter

{
  "node_id": 2,
  "parameter": 8,
  "size": 4,
  "value": 74975765
}

Neither this nor any of the other values I copied from the above thread or from the spreadsheet do anything. I’m 100% my switch’s node id is 2, as that’s what I’m using to control the button presses.

What could I be doing wrong? Is the parameter not actually 8? Are there further zwcfg_*.xml settings I’m missing?

According to the logs, it’s receiving the messages, but the light doesn’t change. It’s forever blue.

As a note, this is a duplicate question that I asked on the HA forums.

Thanks to an HA user, I got an answer pretty quick.

“parameter”: 16

I haven’t found out where that comes from since the manual I have says parameter 8 is the correct one, but at this point I don’t care because it’s working!

maybe a typo from a difference of parameter between on/off switch vs dimmer. At least you got it working !

And just in case you didn’t see this in the other forum, check out:

It makes short work of coming up with the code for parameter 16.
