I just installed a smart outlet in the floor that our Christmas Tree plugs into.
I’m creating a timer profile in Node Red to turn the lights on and off at specific times however, I’d like to use one of the scene buttons on a nearby red dimmer to all manual turn on and off of that outlet.
Guidance appreciated on how to go about this in Node Red.
Thanks!
Node red has an inovelli package that you can create a trigger from a scene call:
That should be enough to get you started!
This MIGHT be easier in just core home assistant just FYI. Here is a blueprint you can use:
I’m using the scene manager node but clearly am missing some important pieces to make this actually work 
In the scene manager node I have the node ID of the red dimmer listed and the entity ID of it and have mapped the button options I want to a pair of call service nodes that have the outlet I’m trying to control with the scenes.
Here is a screen shot of the call service node to turn the outlet on. Thinking I need something more specific in the data field?
You want to listen for zwave_js_value_notification. In the yellow box enter the node ID of the dimmer or switch triggering the scene.

Sorry, I’m lost now.
In the switch node, you say to enter the node ID of the dimmer. Are you referring to the node # which in this case would be 46 or are you referring to the friendly name?
Also, how are you configuring the settings in the events all node?
Is this right?
Might be easier to import the json I posted but here are screenshots The yellow “Change” box enter the zwave node ID of the switch. Not the friendly name.
Thank you for your help so far. Still on the struggle bus. Can you please take a look at my flow.
Also a tip request on how to post this neatly!

Hows this
That worked. What is the problem? The outlet isn’t turning on/off when you select the scene?
This is how I do my service calls to turn devices on/off
I updated the call service to “turn_on” and “turn_off” and the debug shows call service erros. Service not found.
The above was from an inject node test.
When I actually push the buttons on the switch I don’t see anything come into the debug window so think I’m missing something earlier in the flow also.
If you stick a debug on the zwave notification node does it get triggered when you activate the scene?
Did turn_on auto complete as you started typing?
Nothing!
Could this be because I have zwave2mqtt running?
Do you see the scenes activate in central scene? Which firmware is the dimmer? Did you recently upgrade to 1.61, if so you probably need to toggle param 50 to 1 and back to 7.
Keep that screen open and double tap the dimmer. Do you see the 2X from my screenshot?
No change on the screen after both trying to config button and double tap
Try toggling param 50 to 1 and then back to 7 and param 51 to 0 and back to 1.
50 was set at 1 originally and 51 is either enable to disable. I toggled both and changed back to where they were.
Still nothing in the central scene view and nothing showing in the debug window off the events all node.
