Philips HUE Lamps state

[gdimaria]

Hi,

I am using Schneider Philips HUE Libraries ( https://www.se.com/it/it/download/document/AN2_002/) with LM to control HUE Lamps.

It works fine,but... there is no mention of how to get the status of the lamps.

This is very important because in this way there is no correspondence of the states between those indicated in the Philips app on smartphone and those of the LM.

Ok, I can turn them on and off, but how can I associate the status of a lamp with an ETS object?

Can you help me? 


Thanks in advance

Ok, thanks....
Do you think it's better to get rid of Schneider libraries or I could try to integrate them with yours?
What is the shortest way to make everything working?
Thanks

Do you mean the AN scripts? Then yes you should use mine (also SE) from link above (:

hello, I was going crazy trying to command on a single group at a time, without succeeding. On and OFF acted on all groups. When I noticed in the function in the library what I think is an oversight:

Code:

1234567891011121314

function sendToGroup(Group_num,body_request)   local response = {}   socket.http.request({   url = "http://"..ip_add.."/api/"..user.."/groups/"..tostring(Light_num).."/action",   method = 'PUT',   sink = ltn12.sink.table(response),   headers = {   ['content-length'] = #body_request,   ['content-type'] = 'application/json',   },   source = ltn12.source.string(body_request),   })   return response end

I guess Light_num on url in 4 row is wrong and to be subsustite by Group_num.... am I right?
By the way, can I address a group by its name?

You are right about the wrong variable in the code. It seems that groups can only be accessed by a number but not by a name. Group 0 is a broadcast group that controls all lights together.

ok thanks.... another question:

-- Set name (Lookup in HUE app under light configuration) and feedback adresses (don't change statevalue, brivalue and colorvalue as they are used as memoryfield)
addressmapping = {
  -- Name   -- On/Off FB   -- Bright FB  -- Color FB
  ['Led Centrale Down'] = {state = '11/4/10', bri = '11/4/13', rgb = '11/4/12', statevalue = '', brivalue = '', colorvalue = ''},
  ['Led Destro Down'] = {state = '11/4/20', bri = '11/4/23', rgb = '11/4/22', statevalue = '', brivalue = '', colorvalue = ''},
  ['Led Sinistro Down'] = {state = '11/4/30', bri = '11/4/33', rgb = '11/4/32', statevalue = '', brivalue = '', colorvalue = ''},
  ['Led Centrale Up'] = {state = '12/4/10', bri = '12/4/13', rgb = '12/4/12', statevalue = '', brivalue = '', colorvalue = ''},
  ['Led Destro Up'] = {state = '12/4/20', bri = '12/4/23', rgb = '12/4/22', statevalue = '', brivalue = '', colorvalue = ''},
  ['Led Sinistro Up'] = {state = '12/4/30', bri = '12/4/33', rgb = '12/4/32', statevalue = '', brivalue = '', colorvalue = ''}

I can't get any feedback (neither commands) form rgb addresses.... actually I set them as 3 byte unsigned integer (232.600 colours), maybe is that wrong?

Tnx

Yes you can control by name by adding these 2 functions to your user.hue:

Code:

12345678910111213141516171819202122232425

function makeLightsTable()   local lights = getHueLights()   if lights then     lights = json.pdecode(lights)     LightsTable = {}     for _, foundlights in pairs(lights) do       LightsTable[foundlights.name] = tonumber(_)     end     storage.set("hue:lights", LightsTable)   end   return LightsTable end function makeGroupsTable()   local groups = getHueGroups()   if groups then     groups = json.pdecode(groups)     GroupsTable = {}     for _, foundgroups in pairs(groups) do       GroupsTable[foundgroups.name] = tonumber(_)     end     storage.set("hue:groups", GroupsTable)   end   return GroupsTable end

Then add this as a resident script at 0 seconds:

Code:

12345

--Create lights and groups table (resident at 0) require('user.hue') makeLightsTable() makeGroupsTable() os.sleep(600)

From now on you can get the lamp ID by name using this:

Code:

123456789

lamp_id = storage.get("hue:lights")["Plafondlamp Woonkamer"] or 0 body_msg = '{"on":false}' sendToLight(lamp_id,body_msg) -- or group_id = storage.get("hue:groups")["Woonkamer"] or 0 body_msg = '{"on":true}' sendToGroup(group_id,body_msg)

PS: You are correct, there once was a mistake in a older user.hue lib with the sendToGroup function, it was already corrected in my latest version(s)

Sorry, I don't understand... I can already control on/off and 0-100% brightness.... How I could use that system?  What I need is to set and feedback of RGB COLOURS....

[Erwin van der Zwart]

This was the answer on your initial question: By the way, can I address a group by its name?

I asumed you wanted to control the HUE group by name but I suppose you meant to use the KNX name instead of ‘1/1/1’ and the answer on that one is yes should work but never recommending that..

[gdimaria]

Sorry, I didn't explain myself well, I messed up a bit with more than one problem... and by now it's ok to control HUE Groups by number.

I have no problems to control on-off and 0-100% brightness.

What I need now is to set the RGB colors and receive feedback, both for groups and for individual lamps.

Can you provide me the correct scripts to do it?

The one for the groups and the one for single light.

Thanks

Well, i won't promose to provide anything, quite busy at the time, but the question is why doesn't it work for you and works for me and others..

Do you have color lights or white/yellow? as white/yellow are controlled by XY values and not HUE values (RGB), so i guess this is the case..

Don't worry, maybe I solved it.

I will let you know later if had troubles.

Thanks again

Hi,
since I also needed the color temperature feedback, I modified the "Hue feedback" script as per attached code.

But the result is that it assigns to all "ctstate" addresses the same value, that is, that of the first.

The rest of the script works fine.

Code:

I have missing something...
