My prefer effect is bugged

psychomuser commented 3 years ago

Hi, sorry for my english language. I love your integration, and I love the shadow effect of cololight.

My prefer effect is: Color Scheme: Shadow | Red, Yellow Cycle Speed: 24 Mode: 13

If I create this effect from integration menu, the cololight lamp shows a effect with Red, Yellow AND GREEN. Why does it turn green? With the official Lifesmart App this effect work properly. I tried with different cycle speeds and mode, but the issue still remain.

I tried with different color ("red, white", "Yellow, White" ecc), and this effect work properly (without adding wrong colors).

PS: i can't create the effect manually, I tried to add to the configuration.yaml this strings:

light:
  - platform: cololight
    name: Cololight
    host: 192.168.188.25
    custom_effects:
      - name: RedYellow
        color_scheme: Shadow
        color: Red, Yellow
        cycle_speed: 24
        mode: 13

but it doesn't work, even after reboot.

Thank You for your helps, and for creating this integration :)

Thanks for raising!

You are correct, trying with the same settings I also get green.

Unfortunately I couldn't find a quick work around to solve the problem, and won't be able to spend time to resolve it properly for some weeks.

Apologies,

Thank You for reply, is there any way to create the effect manually? I tried but it didn't work

Hey @psychomuser,

This has been fixed with Release v.1.2.3.

The Shadow colour scheme had an additional colour that wasn't in the UI, this caused the calculations to be out by 1 for this scheme. I have added the missing colour, and can confirm that setting - Colour Scheme: Shadow | Red, Yellow Cycle Speed: 24 Mode: 13

Now has the desired effect.

It's working! Thank you so much!

I'd like to offer you a coffee, do you have a donation link?
