VINCELdUB Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Hi Dan, I am beta testing as well. There may be an issue with the drivers you are adding. . Happy Automating! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dew1551 Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Thanks. I found out that I did have a duplicate name for 2cof the same device. I didn't see it when checking on screen but spotted it right away as soon as I printed the list to do the check! Josh was very responsive and everything went well when the name was changed to eliminate the duplicate name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VINCELdUB Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Let's start with a few questions. Have you managed to get it to connect at all? 1- I had an issue with it loading the HomeKit due to the fact I had two lights that had the same name. One was not even identified. Or working but was in the project. I would click on advance settings on web interface, clear the json file. And the clear cache button. Restart home bridge. Then try again. But be sure there are no duplicate names before you save file. Happy Automating! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dew1551 Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Yes I am up and running! Fixing the duplicate name fixed it right up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Pressnell Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Just FYI, the latest version of the appliance firmware and the C4 driver disallows duplicate names entirely, so this shouldn't be a problem for anyone else. Thanks guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
