Scene with RGB controller


Question

Posted

I have a scene that needs to switch on my outside lights at sunset.

The scene switches on the normal outside lights, but my colour changing LED lights embeded in my driveway do not turn on with this scene. I would also like to know as part of the solution, how do I tell the RGB cotroller at which colour to turn on (or maybe use a specific colour chaning program like the default ones).

I am using HCL 3.6

Attached the picture of the scene

(Voor Ligte = Normal Wall lights that DO turn on by scene)

(Oprit Ligte = RGB lights that DO NOT turn on)

Thanks for helping

In v3 you can only turn it on to previous colour in block scene. Try setting RGBW to specific value.

    Thanks. How do I set that specific value?

    Also any idea why the RGB controller will not work as part of the scene. The 2x1.5 relay controlling the wall lights work when the scene execute, but not the RGB?

    Put some number  (e.g. 99) in green box. It may be, that command send to RGBW when action "turn on" is executed in V3 is malformed and therefore module does not react to it.

    OK I see that Ver 3 cannot do colours. Noted

     

    Then, Next question, why is the RGB node Dead all of the time, so by the time the scene runs, the RGB lights do not turn on because the node is dead?

    And it works quite good, I even made it to chenge the color while I told my Android Wear watch to change it to green, red, blue... it is a bit work to do, but it works well. Try it.

    @HomeSystem.sk I am aware of this solution, I even wrote a post or two on it myself

    @daniemare there can be multiple reasons for RGBW turning dead. Look for advices on forum and contact support if problem persists.
