Is Domoticz able to activate RGBW animation programs?

[BakSeeDaa]

I have a FIBARO RGBW Controller and I know it has 5 nice animation programs built in. I don't know how to activate theses programs in Domoticz. I was hoping there is a way to select and start an animation program using a Lua script.

Predefined animation programs

6 = Fireplace
7 = Storm
8 = Rainbow
9 = Aurora
10 = LPD

Hi,

I'm looking for the same thing. I've just found how to start them manually via parameter 72 of the controller settings page.

Here is a simple way to set the animation:

// 6 = Fireplace
http://localhost:8080/json.htm?type=com ... 2_Ng%3D%3D
// 7 = Storm
http://localhost:8080/json.htm?type=com ... 2_Nw%3D%3D
// 8 = Rainbow
http://localhost:8080/json.htm?type=com ... 2_OA%3D%3D
// 9 = Aurora
http://localhost:8080/json.htm?type=com ... 2_OQ%3D%3D
// 10 = LPD
http://localhost:8080/json.htm?type=com ... =72_MTA%3D

Replace localhost and 8080 with your Domoticz web server values. Replace idx with the Node Id of the Fibaro RGBW module.

The cryptic string following the configuration parameter number (72), is simply the number 6-10, base64 encoded and URL encoded. For example from Developer tools console in browser type:

> encodeURIComponent(btoa(8))
"OA%3D%3D"

Anybody know how to lookup the idx from LUA, JSON or from the Web UI?

Hi,

I'm trying to get your url's to work, but I always receive "status" : "ERR". Do I need to use the nodeID as the IDX?

When I manually set parameter 72 in the node settings, I am able to activate the effects.

Any joy with this ?

I Have tried the API url's, But no joy.
{
"status" : "ERR"
}

I can activate via parameter 72 but not via API. I would like to activate via API in blocky... If doorbell rings then play a different program.

Any ideas ?

[RobertH]

Use inspect element and then see under network the url it sends in Chrome.

Awesome idea... didn't think of that. thanks

Its working a treat. I was using the idx values from the devices list which was incorrect.

Thank again

Can someone help me out here by fixing this command?

if I send http://192.168.2.5:8080/json.htm?type=c ... itchcmd=On the fibaro RGBW controller will switch on.
but somehow if I send http://192.168.2.5:8080/json.htm?type=c ... 2_Nw%3D%3D to set parameter 72 to a program, I'll get ERROR, whats wrong with this command?

MiLight also have a animation (change to all colors in a circle), is that also posible to activate via domoticz?

Have you been able to get it working? Once setting the idx of the switch i also get the ERROR.

Currently i can only figure out how to do this by going in to the hardware menu and manually changing item 72

just a newbe (and interested) question....
have you tried to use the zwave hardware list idx instead of the active device id (under switches)
idx=174 is the switch idx.... but what avout using the Hardware row idx?

[dre68]

i've tried to use the z=wave index, no error after issueing the command, but also no result. I applied switchcmd to the same idx and another light responded, It seems that the device idx is the correct number to use, because the light I wish to set the program for is responding to switchcmd with that idx. pfff I wish I could figure it out

[emme]

I found a way (well.. really HE clarify the way!! )

you have to specify the value in an encoded way
once you had all your links create a selector switch and add the commands
mine looks like this

Note1
the IDX link is the ZWave Device Hardware not the Selector Switch, nor the RGB Switch

Note2
the OFF signal on selector does not power it off, it just stop the program leaving the current color
you have to issue the OFF switchcmd using the RGB Switch

hope this would help!

I'm now looking a way to force the color using JSON

Here is a simple way to set the animation:

// 6 = Fireplace
http://localhost:8080/json.htm?type=com ... 2_Ng%3D%3D
// 7 = Storm
http://localhost:8080/json.htm?type=com ... 2_Nw%3D%3D
// 8 = Rainbow
http://localhost:8080/json.htm?type=com ... 2_OA%3D%3D
// 9 = Aurora
http://localhost:8080/json.htm?type=com ... 2_OQ%3D%3D
// 10 = LPD
http://localhost:8080/json.htm?type=com ... =72_MTA%3D

Replace localhost and 8080 with your Domoticz web server values. Replace idx with the index of the RGBW module.

The cryptic string following the configuration parameter number (72), is simply the number 6-10, base64 encoded and URL encoded. For example from Developer tools console in browser type:

> encodeURIComponent(btoa(8))
"OA%3D%3D"

Anybody know how to lookup the idx from LUA, JSON or from the Web UI?

Thank You very much @2manynodes. This works great.

Some notes about the idx value passed in the URL.

This is NOT the device idx found in the Domoticz devices list.
This is NOT the ZWave devices node ID

It's another value, not very easy to find out. I found it out using Firefox Browser by doing the following:

Open Setup->Hardware-OpenZWave-Setup
Mark the node
Right click "Apply configuration for this device" and selected "Inspect Element"
Select the "Network" tab
Click "Apply configuration for this device" (Left mouse button)
In the file list, click the last entry, the one with "json" in it
Look for the value in the Request URL on the right pane, following "&idx"

Cheers!

[dre68]

Yep BakSeeDaa and 2manynodes, you're my heroes for today. finally I've managed to change the parameter

[Derik]

buy some of this controller...
Only some have a few printscreens how to find the idx...
Still working fine?
Or perhaps better, more options?

[dhanjel]

It is working fine. I added it to my system last night.

Go to the hardware tab, press F12 (chrome) and select the network tab. Click on "Setup" for z-wave so you see all the devices. Then if you click on the request in the developer panel (Poll... something if I remember correctly) you have a tab to the right called "Preview", find the node for the RGBW device in the response, expand it and there you have your idx.

Then create a virtual selector switch with the values mentioned above and you should be up and running.

[Derik]

@ bakseedaa....
Will you please te me see with some printscreens where i can find the idx?
I do not understand your story about the idx

THANKS

[stuiow]

Enable developer in Chrome (F12 key).
Go to openzwave
Locate your RGBW device
Select a program to run (i popped in 9 in Option 72).
When you then click apply configuration to device, you will find lines of code appear, one will be a long link.
Look for the IDX code, thats what your after (in my case, its IDX41) (see circled)

[Brutus]

To switch the animation program off you can use the following URL:

http://192.168.1.5:8080/json.htm?type=c ... tchcmd=Off

Change the IDX to the IDX of the RGBW switch in your installation.
