LowLevelBadParameterError every 5 minutes

[srkinard]

I have one LIFX bulb that I bought to avoid swapping out the switch in the closet for a Zwave one.

This error pops up every 5 minutes in the log...not sure what to do to resolve it. It's a basic single-color bulb used with a Z-wave door sensor to trigger the closet light on and off when the door opens/closes.

Code: Select all

Error                           updateStateOnServer() caught exception: LowLevelBadParameterError -- invalid color level key whiteLevel for device Office Closet LIFX Bulb

The device shows up as LIFX White 5CE2EA to the plugin, and all options for the bulb are default.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Ross

Are you running on the latest version of the plugin?

If so, it maybe it is a new model not known to the plugin or it could be a bug?

Is it the Model field that is showing it as LIFX White 5CE2EA ?

Hey Jon,

The model in the LIFX app on my phone says LIFX White running Firmware v3.70

Not sure how new it is...I bought it in Feb 2021 from Amazon.

Thanks

Hi Ross,
I have uploaded a pre-release version of the LIFX Controller plugin to Github: LIFX Controller V6.1.5

I am not sure that it will fix your problem but the release includes:

• Discovery process is now more descriptive of LIFX models discovered.
• Updated product definitions with new LIFX lamps

Please give it a try and post the Indigo Event Log output of the plugin loading, so that I can see the discovery info which will hopefully aid resolving this issue for you (if this update doesn't do it).

Hi Ross,
The new discovery info has given me the info I need to research and resolve the bug, because that's what it is!

I will try and get an update to you later today. I haven't got any White only bulbs and so it may be a bit of trial and error; we'll see.

[autolog]

Hi Ross,
New version available as pre-release: LIFX Controller V6.1.6

Give this a go and see what happens.

[srkinard]

Hey Jon,

Updated the plugin and no error. I'll keep an eye on it and let you know if I pops back up in there.

Thanks for the update.

I don't anticipate the error reoccurring. I thought I had fixed this error in release 6.0.15; but obviously not!

I'll give it 24 hours and then make this an official release in the Indigo Plugin Store.
