CCT Lamp Color_temp #1352

Open tegger2000 opened 2 years ago

tegger2000 commented 2 years ago

Hello, I have some lamps with white range. There is also the possibility with Hue and Alexa to switch between 5 white color cases. Is it possible with HABridge to emulate this as well ? If yes, how ?

bwssytems commented 2 years ago

You have to setup the color command by using the edit scren.

i'm sorry, but could you please give me an example of what I do at Tasmota for example ? For RGB colors the following works: http://192.168.123.234/cm?cmnd=Color%20(${color.r},${color.g},${color.b}) But for white I need a CT value CT | 153..500 = set color temperature from 153 (cold) to 500 (warm) for CT lights

When I ask Alexa - with color enabled device - it states "This device does not support it" (in German :-) when I am asking to make the light colder. So I guess it needs more.

German answer: I am still standing a bit on the tube I have lamps with Tasmota and the Tasmota Hue emulation. There I can choose with Alexa between, "Warm White, warmwhite, white, daily white and cold white (also German version) ". With an RGB-CCT lamp, the emulation does not work. In addition, I also have lamps with Esphome and Zigbee whose white light is variable. So is it possible to emulate a CCT lamp with ha-bridge or not ? For all three I need a color temperature value

Hmm... now I have nice GU10 Bulb with RGB and CCT... but via ha-bridge, I can only choose inside the RGB range... I thing CCT is some different HUE API which is not supported yet by ha-bridge? Gee... I think I have to reinstall a java IDE :-)

So the api version that habridge supports hsb, xy and ct. So maybe it is the device type return it does not like.

steviehs commented 2 years ago

I think it is just an understanding problem :-) (Layer 8 :-)

The device is a home assistant device controlled via api. Aside from color, it suports also color temperature. But where do I set this ct in habridge?

This is how the http body of "color items" looks like: grafik

So where do I place something similar for color_temp? For my understanding I would expect another row called "color temp items"? Could you give me an example how it would work?

Ahh, gotcha. The habridge does not have CT passing mechanism currently only the ones listed here https://github.com/bwssytems/ha-bridge#value-passing-controls
