The list applies to Steinel Connect Mesh variants. Available controls and readings depend on each device’s equipment and firmware. The gateway detects these functions automatically and displays each device separately in the web interface and Home Assistant.
Import an existing Steinel Connect network from the cloud or an app-exported JSON backup. Devices must share the imported NetKey/AppKey pair, have a valid DeviceKey and use Company ID 0x0563. Models must be bound to the imported AppKey.
The gateway supports up to 16 imported devices, 8 elements per device and 16 distinct sensor publication group addresses. These publication addresses are not a limit on the number of lighting groups configured in Steinel Connect.

The gateway enables controls from imported model bindings and authenticated device replies. Live Composition Data adds identity/model validation; a missing reply does not block SIG communication, but a confirmed mismatch does. It exposes one output per device and reads all Sensor elements. Sensorless variants provide output controls without their own sensor readings.
Device details show the model, manufacturer/product identifiers, Mesh models and firmware/hardware revisions when provided by the device. The list uses imported device names and lowercase Mesh addresses. UUID and Composition VID are not shown in regular web details.
The main list contains Steinel devices. Entries without a manufacturer identifier appear in a separate section for identification and reports; devices identified as another manufacturer are excluded.
NightmatIQ Plus exposes its operating mode, twilight threshold, illuminance and actual output. Brightness, motion and motion run-time controls are not exposed for this twilight sensor, even if its firmware advertises the corresponding generic Mesh models.
Groups, neighbouring groups, Master/Slave, scenes and schedules remain configured in Steinel Connect. The gateway uses this configuration without changing it. Manual output control can interact with a device’s automatic controller.
Provisioning new devices, lamp firmware updates and independently controlled multi-channel outputs are outside the gateway’s scope.
Older proprietary Bluetooth/Smart Remote firmware may require the manufacturer’s Mesh conversion. Conversion may be irreversible. Ordinary non-connected and Z-Wave/KNX/DALI-only variants, client-only remotes and the Control PRO II, True Presence, DCS and OEM ranges are not included in the device list.
