mitch236 Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 It would be very cool to be able to control the LED brightness of various switchlinc's etc.. based on programming of the ISY. That way, I could have the LED's be bright during the day and not so bright at night when the lights are out.
Michel Kohanim Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Hi, Only the newest SWLs and KPLs support this feature and you can program them via ISY. With kind regards, Michel
mitch236 Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 Michel, I can control the LED brightness. What I would like to do is have a scene control the brightness of the LED. Is that possible?
Michel Kohanim Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Hi mitch236, Unfortunately you cannot have a scene control the LED brightness but you can have programs control it. With kind regards, Michel Michel, I can control the LED brightness. What I would like to do is have a scene control the brightness of the LED. Is that possible?
Moshe Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Which versions of the KPL and SWL would allow the ISY to configure brightness of LED. What is the method for doing this? Thanks
Michel Kohanim Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Hi Moshe, KPL 2D and above and SWL 40 and above. The methods are: 1. Brightness button on the main page for the device 2. Through programs With kind regards, Michel
jkraus Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I am confused. I have a brand new SWL ordered 2 days ago and recieved today. On the switch it says ver 5, but ISY reports v38 and does not seem to control the LED brightness, but if I follow the manual method (set button 3 sec 3 times) I can set the LED to off (which is what I want), Can someone explain these versions and lack of ISY function?
Michel Kohanim Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 jkraus, Please do ensure that you are using the correct URL ... all SWLs with firmware above 35 (as reported by ISY) should work. With kind regards, Michel
jkraus Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 Michel, one question is that the ISY LED Brightness seems to only have the brightness "ON" Level as per the drop down box. What I am trying to do is have the LED off when the load is off, possible? Or am I just being dumb and the is it just means how "on" the LED is regardless of load state??
mitch236 Posted March 4, 2010 Author Posted March 4, 2010 I'm sure you could have the LED turn off when the load is off. You would have to write a program for it though. I can offer what I think might work, but I'm fairly new to this and there may be a better way to work it. Ex: If: Status 'YourSL' is Off Then: Set 'YourSL 0% (Backlight Level) Else Set 'YourSL' 100% (Backlight Level)
mitch236 Posted March 5, 2010 Author Posted March 5, 2010 ok, my brilliant idea doesn't work. It seems that I can't control the LED brightness of any of my SWL v.38. I tried writing a program that says: If Time is 8:00:00pm Then Set 'Porch' 0% (Backlight Level) What am I doing wrong?
Michel Kohanim Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 Hi mitch236, Before using any programs, would you be kind enough to use the button on the Main view for that device and see if that actually changes the brightness? If it does not, would you be kind enough to send me: 1. The model number for your switch 2. The firmware version With kind regards, Michel
