This has been gone over before, but I can't get it to work.  I'm trying to have the ISY change the local on level for my bathroom light switch to be 12% late at night and 90% during waking hours.  I created a scene with only the master bath light in it (as a responder).  I created two programs to change the on level in that scene (just the "Then" part for testing.  I'm using the "Run then" command to execute the program).  Here is what I have:

 

Program 1

Then
        In Scene 'Master Bath / Mbath Test' Set 'Master Bath / Master Bath Light 16.C0.22.1' 12% (On Level)
 
Program 2
Then
        In Scene 'Master Bath / Mbath Test' Set 'Master Bath / Master Bath Light 16.C0.22.1' 90% (On Level)
 

Neither of these are changing the Local On Level (pressing the wall switch).

What am I missing?

When you operate a device locally there is no scene involved. It is all internal between the switch contacts and the dimmer electronics.

If it is a SwitcLinc then set the switchlinc On level, not an unrelated scene.

Ensuite Lights Level.adjust Copy - [ID 001A][Parent 00FA]

If
        From     8:00:05AM
        To      11:00:00PM (same day)
 
Then
        Set 'Master Bedroom / Ensuite Lights' On Level 100%
        Set 'Master Bedroom / Ensuite Lights' Ramp Rate 0.5 seconds
 
Else
        Set 'Master Bedroom / Ensuite Lights' On Level 20%
        Set 'Master Bedroom / Ensuite Lights' Ramp Rate 2.0 seconds

How did you set the switchlinc on level programmatically ?  What specifically did you use for your Actions? 

If I use, "Your Devices" I only get the options to set Device On, Off, Turn on to a percentage etc., set backlight level, beeper volume.  No options for setting local On Level or Ramp Rate.

If I use Adjust Scene, my device doesn't show up.  Only scenes or devices that are in scenes.  So I put my single device in a Scene.  I then see "On Level" and "Ramp Rate".  But it only adjust those settings for the scene, not locally on the device.

I should note, I'm using version 4.7.

Time to bite the bullet and upgrade to the real ISY!   This a basic setting that I think was included in v4 but then I haven't used v4 for about 5 years now.

I don't use scenes unless I have to.

Okay, I'm not crazy!  (well, I may still be crazy...) 

I don't have all those options on V4.7.  I've been itching to move to 5.x, but haven't had the time to focus on it (my first 2.5 year old is pretty distracting ?).

It sounds like v5 might be officially released soon.  I may just try and go beta though.  I like all those options!

Thanks!

IMHO: "beta" and "alpha" are very bad labels UDI has assigned every version of v5 so far. It's a non-committal cop out for releases and causing UDI a very  bad market reputation, hurting their sales.

They dont want to make it official until they get zwave plus certification. Michel has stated multiple times they wont make it official until they are certified 

If you create a scene called "Master Bath Light" and add only that one light/device (let's call it "Light Bulb") into the scene ("Light Bulb" has to be added as a Controller).

Create a program from say 11pm to 6am (next day)

Then:

In Scene 'Light Bulb' Set 'Light Bulb' 12% (On Level)

Else:

In Scene 'Light Bulb' Set 'Light Bulb' 90% (On Level)

 

This is what you DON'T want to do:

Then:

In Scene 'Master Bath Light' Set 'Light Bulb' 12% (On Level)

Else:

In Scene 'Master Bath Light' Set 'Light Bulb' 90% (On Level)
