All,
Trying to use a Virtual device as a temporary dimmer value storage variable. Having trouble with the virtual device piece.
Example use case
- Front porch light is set at Dim 25%
- Upon Motion trigger, increase porch light to Dim 80%
- After 5 minutes, return to prior value
What works
- I can successfully and repeatedly set one dimmer to another dimmer values
What I cannot get to work correctly/repeatedly
- Saving Light A value to a virtual device
- Move the Virtual Device value back to a real dimmer
I have tried creating a virtual device from scratch and also tried copying a real dimmer to a new virtual device. FYI all my dimmers are Cooper.
I believe the issue is that the virtual device is not configured correctly, since I can move values from real dimmer to real dimmer at will.
Any thoughts on how to set up the virtual device or other suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Vector
