If a light is in an off state, and you then use Domoticz to change the brightness or colour of that light, would you like Domoticz to turn the light on before adjusting the colour/brightness?

Thanks

But try adding it manually (from the hardware setup page), specifying it's IP address and the type RGBW

ErikJ wrote:Hi,

Are there are some more users who have difficulties to get the right warm white color? In my configuration the color is between very warm white (little orange) or warm white with a slightly green. At this moment I use the code: ff8800 (hue 30). I also have Hue bulbs but they have a different code for the same color: d0ff00 (hue 71). If I switch the codes between the hue and the Yeelight they are not the same (Hue color on Yeelight turns green, and Yeelight color on hue more orange).

If I use the Yeelink app on my iPhone, I can configure the perfect color. A color which is more similar with a traditional warm white bulb. The annoying thing is that I cannot recreate that color within Domoticz.

Are there some more options to adjust the colors different?

echo -ne '{"id":1,"method":"set_rgb","params":[16746496, "smooth", 500]}\r\n' | nc -w1 192.168.5.17 55443

Method: set_rgb
Usage: This method is used to change the color of a smart LED.
Parameters: 3.
"rgb_value" is the target color, whose type is integer. It should be
expressed in decimal integer ranges from 0 to 16777215 (hex: 0xFFFFFF).
 "effect": Refer to "set_ct_abx" method.
 "duration": Refer to "set_ct_abx" method.
Request Example: {"id":1,"method":"set_rgb","params":[255, "smooth", 500]}
Response Example: {"id":1, "result":["ok"]}
NOTE: Only accepted if the smart LED is currently in "on" state.

A WW WC desklamp got a wifi connection, does api is the same as the e27 ones ?

corbin wrote:The colour codes here http://planetpixelemporium.com/tutorialpages/light.html look to match up to what the Yeelight outputs.

ie Cool White Fluorescent
212, 235, 255 = D4EBFF = 13954047

Code: Select all

echo -ne '{"id":1,"method":"set_rgb","params":[13954047, "smooth", 500]}\r\n' | nc -w1 192.168.5.17 55443

It should work with the same api, but like the strip light I don't have one to test.

corbin wrote:Hi ErikJ,
You can run that command from the command line - Does your Synology have access to one? Or if you have Linux it should work on that too.

That translation is converting from 3 decimal numbers (RGB) to 3 Hex numbers, and then to a single decimal

On Windows there is the built in calculator, put it in programmer mode and then it will convert between decimal and hex for you. There are also heaps of web pages that will do it as well, eg http://www.subnetonline.com/pages/conve ... to-dec.php

Hi Corbin,

The command line was no option on the Synology (no result). So I installed a copy of ubuntu and with the line you provide me I can change the color. But even than no luck with getting the right color. I also discovered that not all hex codes could be converted to decimal (for example (100W Tungsten) 255, 214, 170 = #FFD6AA = error decimal). And if I use the code #FFD6AA in Domoticz the Yeelight light turns green and the hue also.

I used these sites for the conversion http://www.rapidtables.com/convert/color/rgb-to-hex.htm and http://www.rapidtables.com/convert/numb ... =%23800080

Is there a way to read out the color of the lamp itself?

{"id":1,"method":"get_prop","params":["power","rgb"]}\r\n

FFBB66 is close to 3000
The YeeLight API supports colour temperature commands
