[Plugin now available in Beta] Help with Yeelight Bulb

[weiweipossible]

I'm fixing up some of the Yeelight commands, and for the mono light there is warm and cool white buttons. Are these modes possible with the mono light?

From the "support" header in discover response message, you can find all the supported actions for each different type of device.
For "mono", it only supports "set_bright", no rgb or ct adjustment.

Still waiting my mono one's from ali...made some test with rgbw one with mono selection

using Full Light button doesn't works, it set bulb on a cold with with mid bright, can you help please ?

Thanks, I was thinking I'd missed something seeing those buttons there for the mono light.

How do you change the RGBW to mono in Domoticz?

[deennoo]

Delet rgbw and add the new as a mono

[corbin]

The reason the Full light button doesn't work as you expect is that only the brightness command is currently sent, as it expects a Mono light where setting brightness is sufficient.

With a RGBW light, it should go to full brightness for the colour it is currently set to. What if you send warm white or cool white prior to the full light command?

What do you mean by prior ? before sending full bright ?

[corbin]

yes, if you want a white light at full brightness.

otherwise it will go to full brightness for the currently set colour.

[deennoo]

Back to rgbw, will spoke about mono when mine arrive.

My probleme is that actually, when i turn on the bulb it start a 100% bright and cold white.

With last domo stable.

As a bed room light : not so good.

I'm helping another HA to implented yeelight, they do it great (as you) on/off don't change temp and bright.

[corbin]

When using the "Limitless_LedOn" command, my lights are turning on to the same brightness they were last at, when I use Domoticz or the Yeelight Android app. Yes the bedroom light is nice to be dim! one of the reasons I started looking for these kind of lights.

So I think your lights could be behaving differently, or maybe you are not triggering the "Limitless_LedOn" command, which sends:

Code: Select all

{"id":1,"method":"set_power","params":["on", "smooth", 500]}\r\n

[deennoo]

I made some dummy device and lua script to improve yeelight implantation, i think that natively domotigz have to add the device for each yeelight bulb

Interest of this dummy device : they can be trigger with api, or scene, or lua script

add to this lua script :

PORT = '55443'
--PIN = "4";
if devicechanged[DomDevice] then
   if(devicechanged[DomDevice]=='Off') then 
     DomValue = 0;
     runcommandoff = "sudo echo -ne '{\"id\":1,\"method\":\"set_power\", \"params\":[\"off\", \"smooth\", 500]}\\r\\n' | nc -w1 " ..IP.." " ..PORT.."";;
     os.execute(runcommandoff);
   else
     DomValue = otherdevices_svalues[DomDevice];   
   CalcValue = ((DomValue-1) * 48)+1700;
   end
   if CalcValue==nil then CalcValue=0 end
     runcommand = " sudo echo -ne '{\"id\":1, \"method\":\"set_scene\",\"params\":[\"ct\"," .. CalcValue .. ", 75]}\\r\\n' | nc -w1 " ..IP.." " ..PORT.."";
   os.execute(runcommand);

Yeelight Sceen selector :

Working on the lua script

This one allow to choose sceen, as disco can't work, and ccan not be call from the api, for yeelight bulb,
Want to add red alerte sceen need help from @weiweipossible to get mobile app scene if possible, send me an MP please.

Hi Deennoo,
I've done much the same with Lua to control my light.
My light is used mainly as a security warning, showing different colours and flash patterns depending on the warning.
It's also a welcome and night light.
they all use different colo(u)r flow 'start_cf' commands, configured in Lua.
Creating Disco won't be too difficult.
It looks like endless smooth 0.5s transitions between red, yellow/green, pale blue, pink

Can you share you lua please ? To see if they use sale kind of api.

The code can be included with -

package.path = '/home/pi/domoticz/scripts/lua/?.lua;' .. package.path
YEE = require("Yee")

It can be run either from Domoticz Lua, or from a stand-alone Lua test script.
It should be able to support multiple lamps, but that's untested.
It uses a socket, but could probably use io.popen(url) instead to get the lamp's status.

As i'm not a script coder familiar (i begin with this), please can you comment this ? and add an real lua script who use it ?

[deennoo]

Good work guys, the way Domoticz works scripting is needed to do this fine control. It is a good thing you can make it do what you want rather than be limited to what the GUI offers.

Gui can be change, by using appropriate device (not the limitlessled ones who was done for another hardware

Exemple : for rgbw bulb
using a RGBW switch at creation instead of a limitless one (who add unusful button)
and add selector for pre registred scene
and dimmer slider set as a white temp slider.

bright dimmer can stay a dummy and lua script device, i made it for my comfort.

Easy to say, but surely not easy to do for none Domoticz c++ Dev

Hi i have 3 yeelight i am running in my home automation setup. When i register into domoticz yeelight is registered as RGB bulb and i am able to tun on and off lights and as well change colours but i want to create a scene so that when i set the scene normal mode i want the Yeelight to be able to switch to normal Yellow/White mode as opposed to RGB mode - can anyone help please.

I tried few commands with various parameters but cant seem to be able to do so. I even registered the lights only as mono but no luck.

My aim to to setup 3 scenes that i can use with alexa - Normal mode (Normal Yellow/White lights , Movie - Blue colour and Music mode - Trigger Disco Lights)

Any help from the forum would much appreciate

My solution was to use the white dummy dimmer + lua script and then trigger it from scene (it will turn bulb on and off)

[somiarun]

what do you mean when you say White Dummy Dimmer - you mean add a virtual sensor

I am on domoticz 3.5877 but there is no white dummy dimmer only RGB or RGBW
