Indigo Domotics

Feel free to post questions and comments on the Hue Lights plugin in this thread.

Version 0.9.2 Posted

See original topic for download link.

Changes since version 0.9
0.9.2

• Corrected error in actionControlDimmerRelay that prevented setBrightness call from working.

0.9.1

• Added "Set Brightness with Ramp Rate" action, similar in functionality to the action available in Dimmer Extender.
• Refined brightening and dimming action speed to more closely match the brightening and dimming speed of SwitchLinc Dimmers when their paddle is held down.
• Modified internal method names to make plugin scripting easier and more consistent with the way Dimmer Extender can be scripted.

Started having these errors on my system, Love your work... and contributions,

Hue Lights Error Error in plugin execution runConcurrentThread:

Hue Lights Error plugin runConcurrentThread function returned or failed (will attempt again in 10 seconds)


Any Ideas, have restarted indigo and plugin a few times.

Thankx

Version 0.9.3 Posted

See original topic for download link.

Changes since version 0.9
0.9.3

• Added more error checking. Worked around a bug in the "colormath" library that would throw a ZeroDivisionError if the "y" color component were zero.

0.9.2

• Corrected error in actionControlDimmerRelay that prevented setBrightness call from working.

0.9.1

• Added "Set Brightness with Ramp Rate" action, similar in functionality to the action available in Dimmer Extender.
• Refined brightening and dimming action speed to more closely match the brightening and dimming speed of SwitchLinc Dimmers when their paddle is held down.

Hey Keith.

Yep. That started showing up on mine as well a few days ago. I'd fixed it but just hadn't posted the update yet. Try out the 0.9.3 version. Let me know if you see any other errors.

Not sure if related but upgraded indigo to 6-b2 and added a couple more hue lamps and started getting this error on new lamps.

Hue Hall no problems installed a few days ago.
Hue GR Right and Hue GR Left have err below.



Hue Lights "Hue Hall" on to 100 at ramp rate 0.0 sec.
Hue Lights Error Default ramp rate could not be obtained: empty string for float()
Hue Lights "Hue GR Right" on to 100 at ramp rate 0.5 sec.
Hue Lights Error Default ramp rate could not be obtained: empty string for float()
Hue Lights "Hue GR LEFT" on to 100 at ramp rate 0.5 sec.
Hue Lights Error Default ramp rate could not be obtained: empty string for float()
Hue Lights "Hue GR LEFT" off at ramp rate 0.5 sec.
Hue Lights Error Default ramp rate could not be obtained: empty string for float()
Hue Lights "Hue GR Right" off at ramp rate 0.5 sec.
Hue Lights "Hue Hall" off at ramp rate 0.0 sec.

If you need anything else let me know i've got 9 more bulbs to setup and figure out how to control.

Many thanks and great work

Hi Keith.

Thanks for the report. Though the log does give some clues as to possible problems, I'll need a bit more info if you could. Could you please turn on debug logging in the Hue Lights configuration (Plugins -> Hue Lights -> Configure... -> Enable Debugging)? Once that's turned on, try to reproduce the errors you showed in the logs above then copy and paste the output from the Indigo log into your reply.

Let me know if this is not what you need...

Ah! Thanks! That's what I needed.

I think I've fixed it. Give this version a try.

Looks to be working perfectly now

Thank you again
Keith Dutton

Excellent! Let me know if you see any more errors.

Yikes, where are you guys getting these bulbs? The Apple store states a 3 to 4 month
shipping estimate.

Thanks,

Carl

I had to walk into my local Apple Store to pick up my kit (it was the last kit on the shelf). You can check your local Apple Store's stock online by adding a bulb or kit to your cart then selecting Pick up as the delivery option, then select your closest store. You can also see which stores have them in stock by clicking the Change store link.

Thanks, but I'm a long way from any Apple store these days here in Montana.
I see them being hawked on eBay for ridiculous prices...maybe get anxious and
cave on some.

Hmmm... yea, that'd make it difficult. Perhaps if you know someone near an Apple Store who could go and get some for you and then mail them to you.
