New Philips Hue bulb.

Hi Nathan,
I've just received a new Philips Hue bulb (supposedly slightly brighter than the old models), and it's now being recognised by the Plugins.

Relevant (I hope) part of debug log is

u'33': {u'name': u'NEW NEW NEW', u'swversion': u'66014919', u'manufacturername': u'Philips', u'state': {u'on': True, u'hue': 14910, u'colormode': u'ct', u'effect': u'none', u'alert': u'none', u'xy': [0.45960000000000001, 0.41049999999999998], u'reachable': True, u'bri': 254, u'ct': 370, u'sat': 144}, u'uniqueid': u'00:17:88:01:10:54:36:e3-0b', u'type': u'Extended color light', u'modelid': u'LCT007'},

I've added LCT007 to the list of Hue Bulbs in plugin.py as below, and it's now recognised.
Code: Select all
#   (compatible Hue bulb devices)
kHueBulbDeviceIDs = ['LCT001', 'LCT002', 'LCT003', 'LCT007']

Regards

... and I've just realised I'm a few releases behind with respect to the hue plugin. I'll going to declare groundhog day and go back into hibernation.

Haha. Hey Paul.

Yea. I added the new Hue bulb a revision or two back.

Happy automating!

Re: New Philips Hue bulb.

Version 1.4.0 Posted

Note this version is only compatible with Indigo 7. Indigo 6 and earlier users should NOT upgrade.

  • Added support for color picker in RGB and HSB color setting actions.
  • Added support for color and white temperature UI features in Indigo.
  • Added Toggle Debugging menu item in Hue Lights plugin menu.
  • Changed Hue Lights to now require Indigo 7 or later.
  • Changed LightStrip Plus handling so it appears with the original Hue LigthStrip model in Edit Device Settings dialog.
  • Updated Hue Group device name to show that it's no longer experimental.
