There are 3 types of light controls in the original RadioRA
- Switch
- Dimmer
- Grafik Eye
Each type has associated RS232 commands, which must be used for the control to operate properly.
BLRadioRA recognizes and deals with "Dimmer" only, using the command meant for "Dimmer"
SDL,<Zone Number>,<Dimmer Level>(,<Fade Time>){(,<System)}
There are warnings all over the place in the documentation that using "Dimmer" command for other types as "Switches" or "Grafik Eye" will lead to "unexcpected results"
Quote: "If the Zone Number is a Switch, GRAFIK Eye Control Unit, or a Sivoia Control, the unit may respond to this
command with unexpected results."
While I'm yet to face major problems managing switches I do face serious problems managing "Grafik Eye" controls where the results are "unexpected" indeed.
I think Blade must do a major overhaul here and properly recognize the 3 types of devices and not to lump them under one type only that leads to "unexpected" results.
Thanks,
