    Philips hue LWB010 dimable Warm white light not dimable

    I have a number of Philips Hue LWB010 lamps which are dimable but show only as on/off devices in Homeseer. The Jowihue page correctly shows the device as dimmable but the option to enable this is greyed out on the homeseer page. See screenshots below.

    Is it possible to correct this or does it need a lamp type update ?
    thanks

    It should be recognised as an dimmable device already. Could you try the following steps to check if there is an issue with initialising the database?

    1. IN the HS installation directory you will find a subdirectory Config. IN this directory there is a file called JowiHueImports.xml.old. Rename this file to JowiHueImports.xml
    2. After a maimum of 30 minutes the plugin should find this file and import this. You will see lines in the log rgarding the import.
    3. If any errors occur in the log, let me know?
    4. If no errors occur, the devices for the bulbs should change, so the dimmer functions are added. If it doesn't, restart the plugin once and check if this changed the devices?


    Thanks,

    Wim

      Hi Wim,
      I followed those instructions and get the following in the log.

        The error for the Lamptypes is the issue here. I have seen one other user with the same issue, but did not yet see the cause behind it yet The error on sensortypes is new for me, will have to chack if I missed something there.

        I have to work on that! Hoping to come up with something soon!

            I'm having a similar issue but just with the colour gu10 bulbs (LCT003). the other 46 bulbs have recognised correctly.

              sorry I spoke to early, I'm having the same issue with the colour candles (LCT012), white gu10's (LTW013), v1 colour bayonet (LCT007) and the white bayonets (LWB006)


              in fact the only ones that have been detected properly and show as dimmable are the new colour bayonet bulbs (LCT015)

                This issue will be resolved with the new beta. I have to solve one other issue before I can release it. It will probably need a refresh of the devicevalues once the new version is installed (proprties of the device, JowiHue tab and press refresh devicevalues)

                    I am testing the issue with another user. The concurrency issue came back after all, I was too enhousiastic ...
                    I am still hoping soon, but it will have to wait until after Christmas for sure. was hoping for better news!

                    Happy Christmas!

                        Finally solved the issue here. Has been on of the most stubborn issues so far. Dimming and CT devices should start working with the new beta 2.0.2.13

                        Happy New Year

                          Hi

                          i tried installing the new beta but it fails, even in developer mode. I am missing something to be able to install Betas?

                            Mike,

                            No, there is some issue when installing an update on an active plugin. This is is an issue on the manage plugins page that need to be solved by HST.
                            Easiest way is to first disable the plugin and then install the beta. after installing enable the plugin again.

                              Thanks for getting this working. I disabled the plugin and then upgraded. All bulbs now are dimmable. There does seem to be a problem with tap switches though.
