Hi guys,
I need some ideas how to connect a Gunnarp led panel. I am not able to put it in pairing mode, the only way is to connect to the tradfri remote controller. How can I link both at the same time to the zigbee controller? As soon as I connect the remote to the led panel, it disconnects from the zigbee controller, or when I connect to the controller, it forgets the led panel. All ideas would be appretiated.

Why can't you put the gunnarp into pairing mode? Usually you can put Ikea lamps into pairing mode by turning them off and on at roughly 1s intervals for 6 times.

I know theoretically how to put into pairing mode, but it does not work. Turn on and off 6 times. I tried it for weeks, did not succeed.

When did you buy the lamp? Maybe the pairing logic part is just plain defective. Usually Ikea has like a 365 days "no questions asked" return policy... or maybe watch a video or something to see the correct rhythm of switching the power to the lamp on and off (I know it sounds stupid, but once you learned like the right "groove" for the things, they're easy to put into pairing mode, but if you don't, you can try for weeks and never succeed, and the printed manual alone really isn't helpful with that at all)
But yeah, afaik, there is no "hack" to pair a lamp by binding it to a remote first and then carrying that bind into a pairing with a Zigbee network, sorry
