RGB LUA CALLS setting colours and brightness

[Jamie mccrostie 82]

When setting the value for a RGB strip, how is the colour number represented in the call?

i.e fibaro:setValue("122","?")

example colour number shown on RGB colour  properties #0000FF .

 

Also is the brightness and colour represented in this number or are they set separately?

Thanks

The format is :     

 

fibaro:call(rgbwModul, "setColor", red, green, blue, white); 

fibaro:call(rgbwModul, "turnOn"); 

 

where rgbwModul is your modules ID and the four colours can have a value from 0 to 255. If you only have a RGB led strip, then white should be changed to "0". That is " + 0 + ".

Hi,
the call works fine with numbers, but do we have a chance to "GET", "SAVE", "CALL" the settings?

With fibaro.get i will receive a STRING (ex. 255,40,71,0) this string cannot be used directly to call this colors.

 

Any idea how I can do that?

                fibaro.call(i, "turnOn")

            end

        end

    end

end
