This release absolutely wouldn't have happened without you and everyone else who tested (especially those last 2 bugs, which were particularly devious, and I originally didn't even think to test the lights in the fashion you and Trey were using them, until you guys mentioned it). So thanks to everyone who contributed.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sturgeo Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Does anyone have any recommended settings for the auto output AV device when using an Xbox Series X? It appears that when you turn the console off, watts drops to approx. 30, this triggers the room off as intended. After a few minutes watts then jump to 70+ for a few seconds before the console goes into standby, this triggers the output select device to turn the TV back on. I've just increased the energy poll rate to 4 seconds to see if it helps. Edit: Instead of using the built in options, I've done it in programming with a 5 minute timer which is started when the device triggers the min action. The max action then has a condition to check that the timer isn't running before triggering the source selection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Time2Jet Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 I am having an issue with multipe LB130 bulbs in a scene where they will not turn all of the way off.. the issue is that they still slightly glow when "Off" in the scene. The scene is bound to a keypad button, as are the individual lamps. They turn all of the way off when the operated individually. What am I missing?

It does. It's a pretty thorough driver. Considering the low cost of devices, it's a really good driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neil12011 Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 For triggering an AV device, I have my Xbox and Wii setup, but it won't automatically switch inputs even though I have the wattages set correctly? I had to manually add the "when output has reached maximum value" programming to make it switch over. Am I missing something? This works great, but I thought the properties setting would negate having to do this, not that it's a huge deal, just want to make sure I'm setting things up properly. Great driver by the way!

therockhr Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 What is the best way to turn the brightness up and down either via a c4 keypad or like a Lutron pico remote? I don’t see a command to do that (like a button link). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G'day, I've never used the PICO, but does it not have full push/hold/release capabilities? Devices like the Bond SideKick and C4 Configurable keypads have the ability to push and hold (which will trigger dimming until released). In that case, it could just use a BUTTON_LINK Sorry for taking so long to respond (was away for the past 2 days, due to Melbourne Cup weekend) Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the PICO doesn't have a button_link, you should be able to use the Button commands Programming. You'd use press for the button push, and release for button release. If the PICO doesn't have a click command, you might need to do some timer programming to emulate a single click instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

therockhr Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Say I want Button 1 to Dim Up and Button 2 to Dim Down what commands for the TP-Link should i put in the Button 1 Press and Release and then the same for Button 2 Press and Release? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew luecke Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 So firstly, I've never used Lutron, but its a bit weird they don't have BUTTON_LINK's under connections if thats the case (even our ELK M1 Alarm driver has BUTTON_LINK's for things like Function keys, and that's not even a primary function of the device). So, I'd firstly speak to Lutron about getting it added.. Otherwise, COMPLETELY untested (and you may need to fudge around with it). You'll have to do this for every button I guess Make a timer called clickActive for 750ms (or however long until dimming is delayed for) On Button Press ReStart ClickActive timer Press Top Button (Light) On Button Release Release Top Button if ClickActive Timer is Running Single Click Top Button (light)..Or just do the on command Stop ClickActive Timer I'm guessing that should work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therockhr Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Thanks. I am using the original caseta pico driver and not the new leap driver so it may have been added. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, you can certainly work around it using the programming I mentioned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
