Adjusting On Level for Switches during certain Times.

[rmlinnovator]

Ok I am trying to figure out how to adjust my bathroom lights to come on at a lower level during mornings and nights.

 

I have created a scene. Assigned the keypad load button as the controller of the scene. I then have created the following program:

 

If
       On Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri
       From     6:00:00AM
       To       7:30:00AM (same day)
   And From    11:00:00PM
       To       5:00:00AM (next day)

Then
       In Scene 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master Bath' Set 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master Bath KL (load)' 25% (On Level)
       In Scene 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master Bath' Set 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master Bath KL (load)' 30.0 Sec (Ramp Rate)
       In Scene 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master WC' Set 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master Bath WC' 25% (On Level)

Else
       In Scene 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master Bath' Set 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master Bath KL (load)' 70% (On Level)
       In Scene 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master Bath' Set 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master Bath KL (load)' 0.5 Sec (Ramp Rate)
       In Scene 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master WC' Set 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master Bath WC' 60% (On Level)

 

However, this isn't working for me lights come on to regular set levels at all times. Can someone point me in the right direction.

Describe what Controller is turning the bathroom lights On.

 

The Adjust Scene first parameter is the name of the Controller, not the name of the Scene. Changing the On Level and Ramp Rate for the Scene name changes what happens when the Scene is turned On using a Program (PLM is the Controller).

 

Each Controller has a unique set of Responder values so it is necessary to select the Controller being used.

Lee thanks for the reply I am using the 6 button Keypad Link with the Load button as the controller of the scene.

 

Which is signified as Master Bath KL (load) above.

 

(The Scene is Called "Master Bath")

 

Not sure what I need to do different to make this work.

[LeeG]

Yes. Use the KeypadLinc Primary button as the first parameter in the Adjust Scene. It should already be a Controller in the Scene definition.

[rmlinnovator]

Hm...Thanks Lee yes that is the way I have it setup but it doesn't seem to work.

 

(Master Bath KL (load) is my primary On button)

[LeeG]

The original Program is not using the KeypadLinc load button as the first parameter. Did you change the Program and Save. The Programs | Summary will show if a Save is pending. The first parameter in the posted Adjust Scene is not the load button.

 

In Scene 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master Bath' Set 'Master Bed / Master Bath / Master Bath KL (load)' 25% (On Level)

 

What is the firmware level of the KeypadLinc. Some older devices required a power cycle to have changes to the Local On Level and Local Ramp Rate take effect.

Gotcha!

 

Yes I think I understand now. I had been adjusting the scene and not the Keypad button. I am guessing this should work now.
