dimTo() fails to set level

Hello,
I've got a very strange problem. This code fails to set the dimmer level
whereas this code does what is expected:
Code: Select all
dz.openURL("http://192.168.21.240:8080/json.htm?type=command¶m=switchlight&idx=577&switchcmd=Set%20Level&level=50")
Is anybody having a clue?
I'm running stable 2022.1
Thank you

What kind of device is it?
Do you get an error when the dzvents code is executed?

Thanks waltervl. This is a dummy device. The following error is sometimes reported (not all the time)
Code: Select all
Error: Setting a wrong level value 52 to Selector device 82289
It is definitely not a selector but a dimmer

Then I would advise to delete it and try to recreate it again.
Something is wrong in your configuration.
Also check if there is not a device with exactly the same name (eg "lights living room") as DzVents sometimes gets confused on this.

Good shot, thank you for kind advise. I was not aware that despite the fact I'm always using idx, we must not get two devices with same names.
