Hi all,
from my previous smarthome central unit I know that the color on the Aeotec Smart Switch 7 can be changed, i.e. when the switch is off or at a certain time.
In the forum I found some information for smart switch 6, but unfortunately it didn`t work
I also tried to send some basic messages, but nothing happend
Can anyone here help me out with some information or already knows what has to be done?
Thank you
Carsten
I’m wondering if there’s a setting for these Aeotec light switches to have the LED indicator come on when the switch is off. Currently the indicator light is on when the switch is on and off when the switch is off. It would be easier to locate the switch in the dark if the indicator was visible. My other brands of light switches work this way (GE, Zooz)
All my Aeotec Smart Switch 7 : ON=White ; OFF=Green
Technically it is possible, but that functionality isn’t build into the app.
It is also possible to do it with raw z-wave commands (if included unsecure), but can’t look them up until I get home.
That would be very helpful, I already tried something but always failed.
It will change the behaviour of the LED of what state the socket is in. (On or Off)
You can send the command with the Flow card (you might need to enable “power user” in the mobile app for this flow card)
Brightness control:
0x26, 0x01, 0x63
Where the 0x63 is the brightness value, for some reason it won’t work (well) with decimal numbers so you’ll have to convert the value to a hexadecimal number.
where 0x00 is off (0%) and 0x63 is maximum brightness (100%). (Decimal wise it is 0 - 99)
Default ON (50%): 0x26, 0x01, 0x31
Default OFF (10%): 0x26, 0x01, 0x0A
Color control:
This is done in RGB fashion:
0x33, 0x05, 0x03, 0x02, 255, 0x03, 255, 0x04, 255
Where the first 255 is the Red channel
The second 255 is the Green channel
The third 255 is the Blue channel
this can be done with any decimal values, from 0 - 255
Examples:
White (Default ON): 0x33, 0x05, 0x03, 0x02, 255, 0x03, 255, 0x04, 255
Red: 0x33, 0x05, 0x03, 0x02, 255, 0x03, 0, 0x04, 0
Green (Default OFF): 0x33, 0x05, 0x03, 0x02, 0, 0x03, 255, 0x04, 0
Blue: 0x33, 0x05, 0x03, 0x02, 0, 0x03, 0, 0x04, 255
Yellow: 0x33, 0x05, 0x03, 0x02, 255, 0x03, 255, 0x04, 0
Cyan: 0x33, 0x05, 0x03, 0x02, 0, 0x03, 255, 0x04, 255
Magenta: 0x33, 0x05, 0x03, 0x02, 255, 0x03, 0, 0x04, 255
perfect, thank you very much for your help.
I will check it
@Caseda thank you for providing the options and details.
I tried to change the device at knot 77 with the following command:
77 0x26 0x01 0x20
but nothing happened. Could you please tell me where you found the parameter information?
I wasn`t able to find it myself
There is a comma inbetween each value in my commands for a reason, I don’t see that in your command?
The information is not easily findable, if you dont know which (2) document you need on the sigma (z-wave creator) website, I would highly recommend not even trying as it consists of about 1300-1500 pages of information.
The comma is present, I found the reason, the LED was set to night light mode, there the command was ignored when the time is met.
After changing to on/off state everything is as expected, thank you @Caseda
I have just one question for the color command, the first (0x33) is the command class, the second( 0,05) is ??? and the third (0x03) is the length of the message, right?
Second value is the “set” command, so the device know you are setting a value in the previously mentioned command class.
Further your analogie is correct.
Though “length”, I guess “the amount of colors” is more precise.
