Connecting to Phillips HUE
-
@fcostazini Use the SNAPSHOT version
-
@jkandasa THanks! i'll try it right away
-
@jkandasa The philip hue gateway is up and running but i can't add any sensor. I mean i can't find or autodetect any. should i add them manually? in that case, how?
-
@fcostazini I guess sensors will be added automatically. @Fraid can guide in detail.
-
Got it!
For future references: First, the IP address of the philip Hue should include the protocol: "http://192.168.86.201", second, you should generate a new user for philip hue (with any app like postman) like this: First, press the sync button on the philip hue bridge
post -> url: http://192.168.86.201/api" -> body: raw -> {"devicetype":"philipseHueauthorizedUser xyz"} . This will get you a new user. That's the user you should use.That's it.
Thanks!!!

The problem now is that i can't create an operation for the lights to turn them ON or OFF. Toggle is working just fine. Any sugestion?
-
@fcostazini What is the issue are you facing?
-
@jkandasa When i create an operation with Toggle, the lights work like a charm. But if i try with ON or OFF nothing happend. In the log i see it says:
[org.mycontroller.standalone.message.McActionEngine:145] Not supported opration! OperationTable for sensor variable:[On]
-
@fcostazini Kindly use
0
forOFF
and1
forON
as a payload. -
@jkandasa It's working! Thanks. it would be great to have a simple tool to create massive operations. Like "create all ON operation for selected Binary sensors" or something like that.
Thanks again!
