Status Group for getting status of a virtual device
Posted: Sat Feb 18, 2017 12:06 pm
I've been experimenting with the homebridge plug-in for controlling stuff via Siri (my house is all Apple and not yet ready to shell out $ for Amazon Alexa). I am using Indigo Virtual Devices for this purpose, in order to execute scenes which control Osram Lightify color changing bulbs.. I understand the Virtual Device 'Status Variable' and use it to get status for these lights (variable set to true/false). However, I don't quite understand how I can be using the 'Status Group'.. The 'Status Group' will execute an action group.. but does this somehow return a boolean value or is it supposed to set a different indigo variable to true/false. Apologies for not getting it, as I just started digging into the Action Group stuff.. Any examples on the 'Status Group' usage would be helpful
thanks in advance!
