Fast On versus On

[Mecheng70]

@shbatm Is there anyway to default the Fast On to the normal and not just On.  Have 4 Aeotec RGB bulbs that have a parameter to change the ramp rate but that does not work like the "Fast On" and "Fast Off" buttons in AC.

There's no way to change the default, but you have a couple options for each light:

1. Use a template switch and change the turn on service to use the send_node_command service with the fast_on command.

2. Dashboard only: change the tap_action of a card/entity to use the service above. This won't work to toggle the light though, so you'll either need a separate on/off button or set tap and hold actions (with hold being off).

Ok. I'll look into that. Thanks

Something like this?

switch:
  - platform: template
    switches:
      rgb_network:
        friendly_name: "Network"
        value_template: "{{ is_state('light.network', 'on') }}"
        turn_on:
          service: isy994.send_node_command
          data:
            command: fast_on
          target:
            entity_id: light.network
        turn_off:
          service: isy994.send_node_command
          data:
            command: fast_off
          target:
            entity_id: light.network

I believe that this creates a switch.rgb_network
