Hello,

The HEX colors doesn't work by me. How can I fix this?

glenndehaan commented 5 years ago

Hi,

Here are some things to check:

Is the bulb responding in the app to color changes?
What type of bulb do you have? (Maybe post a picture here)
Are you using the correct HEX values for you bulb. If not the bulb will default to the Warm color
Are you calling the correct $DEVICEID. Try to adjust the brightness. If that also doesn't work then you are not using the correct $DEVICEID

I also just had the issue that it didn't accept hex values:

In the sample payload, the hex value is in single quotes, but looks like the gateway only accepts double quotes:

Like this it works for me:

coap-client -m put -u "$TF_USERNAME" -k "$TF_PRESHARED_KEY" -e '{ "3311": [{"5706": "f5faf6" }] }' "coaps://$TF_GATEWAYIP:5684/15001/$TF_DEVICEID"

Ah oke yeah that is right since single quotes are not making a valid JSON object. Just to clarify did you copy the value with quotes from this overview: https://github.com/glenndehaan/ikea-tradfri-coap-docs#rgb-bulbs

That then I have to update this table to use double quotes

I have updated the docs so that the color table's won't have single quotes. This should avoid confusion
