Programatically Changing On Levels

[wpmjones]

The light in our master bathroom is on a ToggleLinc Dimmer (2466DW). During the day, I want the On Level to be 65%. At night, I'd like the On Level to be 35%. Is there a way to programatically change the On Level on a particular device? I would probably use sunrise and sunset as conditions and just change the On Level. I just couldn't find an option for it.

 

Thanks!

Sure. Define an ISY Scene with the ToggleLinc as a Controller. Use the Program Adjust Scene statement, selecting the ToggleLinc switch for both the In Scene and Set parameters. This combination changes the Local On Level (or Local Ramp Rate) of the ToggleLinc.

 

If
       From    Sunset 
       To      Sunrise (next day)

Then
       In Scene 'ICON Dimmer 1' Set 'ICON Dimmer 1' 35% (On Level)

Else
       In Scene 'ICON Dimmer 1' Set 'ICON Dimmer 1' 65% (On Level)

I have wondered if there is any long term affect on re-writing the programming on a switchlink 2x/day 365 days per year doing this. Comments?

Thanks Lee! That is not an option I was familiar with. I've got it set up and it looks like it is working. I love the quick and knowledgeable responses on these forums!
