SpotLight Issue On/OFF #467

Open MiAutomations opened 2 years ago

MiAutomations commented 2 years ago

The Spotlight function is not working properly on the RLC-812A once I can power it ON but I can't Power OFF over the Home Assistant integration

The spotlight in 812A is little different from RLC-8xx

812A didn't have auto mode, because there is no IR lights in the night mode, the spotlight is always on in the night ou scheduled and I think the problem maybe is related to this, some diference in the way to turn off or on ... Can you please check ?

Thank you for your support in advance

To add to this. If "Night mode" is disabled to prevent the spotlight from coming on then switching the spotlight on via the Integration turns this on.

I tried changing the Night mode to a schedule and it looks like switching the light on via the integration works by forcing the schedule on all the time and then switching from the schedule to Auto. If this is the case and the only way to make it work it may be better to fully disable night mode when switching off and then switch on via the schedule.

Also having this issue on the RLC-811A and Duo 2. I'm able to use the plugin to turn the spotlight on but the plugin is unable to turn the spotlight off afterwards. After the spotlight is turned on by the plugin, the Reolink NVR camera spotlight setting changes to "On as scheduled" and must manually be turned off via the Reolink web app.
