New LED Light Strip Issue

Featured Replies

Posted

Just installed one of these:

Very cool, by the way.

It works perfectly fine from the Kasa app.

It shows up in the AC's Main Tab. It does not, however, show up in the list of 'Your Devices' when I try to add it to a program.

I can turn it on and off from the AC's Main Tab, so it is connected to the ISY.

I can also see it in PG3. And - it's the only node with more than one driver(9) in PG3.

I know it's a new item - if you need assistance with testing this, just let me know.

My AC is running 5.4.3 - My Kasa Node is running 3.0.9 - My PG3 is 3.0.40

I am noticing, however, that PG3 is reporting I'm running ISY version 5.3.0. (I've restarted everything this morning a few times.)

Please make sure logging is in Debug and restart the NS then let it run for a couple minutes and turn it on and off for the AC. Then download log package in the PG UI and PM that to me. I'm out of town so won't be able to look until this weekend.

I've been waiting for this issue to be resolved before I send you that stuff - hopefully I won't have to if it's related:

Thanks, the PM showed the issue.  That device doesn't have color temperature control.  Issue fixed in 3.1.10.

Thank you!

Just updated to 3.0.10 - I'm able to add them to programs now. 

Your Node server has many more options than the Kasa app has! One notable one is it looks like I may be able to set a color by RGB - and that's not in the app for these. I needed that because I've installed two of them and would very much like to match the two color-wise.

Awesome work - thanks again!

I won't have time to completely test everything until Friday as we leave tomorrow morning for the day, but if you would like me to test anything in particular, just let me know.

Great! Everything should work as expected because it's the exact same code that handles the original light strip which I have. But it's possible that I haven't tested everything.

@JimboAutomates Is there a way to control each zone independently? The KL420 series supports up to 50 zones, but I don't see a way to control them from the NS. What did I miss?

Sorry, currently it doesn't. I meant everything that works with the original strip will work with this one. Adding zone support will take a while.
