Fibaro RGBW Modes - blink when updating color?

Post by mbtr »

Hi,

I'm using a Fibaro RGBW Controller in combination with an Aeon Z-stick Gen5, a Raspberry Pi 2B and a generic RGB Led-strip. I added the RGBW-node to Domoticz, and on the Switches screen the RGBW-device seems to work as expected most of the time. However, when I use a JSon URL to manipulate the color, something odd happens; the brightness level seems to jump to 100 before going to the set value. This sometimes happens when using the colorpicker as well. To illustrate: the URL below will first make the ledstrip bright yellow, before dimming down to the 40 level. Any thoughts?

Code: Select all

json.htm?type=command&param=setcolbrightnessvalue&idx=XXXXX&hue=40&brightness=40&iswhite=false
(What seem to be) relevant parameters - others can be seen in the attached image:

Code: Select all

1. Enable/Disable ALL ON/OFF
ALL ON Active / ALL OFF Active

6: Associations command class choice
Normal (RGBW) - COLOR_CONTROL_SET/START/STOP_STATE_CHANGE
The Lightstrip will turn on based on motion sensors, so my goal is to animate colors and brightness based on motion. For colors I could use scenes in Blockly, but this seemed more complicated than a webpage (or bash script, ...) that handles both the animation and the colors.

Thanks in advance,

Marc
