Milight with single-color white LED stripe

---

It took a while, but here is a screenshot of the remote control

@schulz Thanks. It suprises me that the full color remote can be paired with single led strip controller. In this case the corresponding device is
the MilightFullColorZone. You can add this as follows:

• In the pimatic web front end choose “Devices” from the menu.
• On the “Devices” page choose “Discover Devices” (located in the top-right corner of the window)
• After 20 secs the list of Discovered Devices should contain entry for “Milight V6 Full Color Zone”
• Click on that entry and save the device on the following page
• Now you need to add the device to page for display … I guess you already know how to do this

Thank you very much, now he has recognized him!
I still have a question, the color change slider is always visible on the devices, although they are single-color LED strips, can it be removed somehow?
Furthermore, both devices have a slider for color change and dimmer! Isn’t there a button to turn it on and off?
Thank you very much

You could define a button and combine it with rules that set the dim level to 0 / 100%

Removing the slider is only possible by css-inject.

Is there a guide to it?

Here you find some samples for css-inject https://forum.pimatic.org/topic/4183/new-plugin-pimatic-css-inject

For creating a button no guide is needed, isn’t it?

Sorry, I think I also need help creating a button, I’m a beginner

Go to device section and create a DummyButton device. Give it a name and go to the rules section.

Create two rules.
When button-name is turned on then set dim level of milight-device to 100

When button-name is turned off then set dim level of milight-device to 0

Rules are untested and just out of my mind.

That means in the menu then but two different devices appear on or?

I’ve tried out the rules and it works, but it presents me with another problem!
First of all I have a second switch and secondly the dimming level is always set to 100% when switching on again!
I would like to switch a staircase lighting on and off and it should always be set to the last level when switching on!
It would be ideal if the slider for the color change would disappear and instead a button for on and off, which always switches to the last set dimming value!
Is that doable?
Furthermore, I haven’t found out yet how to move devices into the created groups?

Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator

Create a variable e.g. stair-dimlevel and a rule.

When milight-device.dimlevel changes then set $stair-dimlevel to milight-device.dimlevel

When dummy-button is turned on then set dim level of milight-device to $stair-dimlevel

Then there is the problem when switching on, if you switch off via the dummy, then the dimming level is to 0, means switching on with the dummy is no longer possible.

Add an exclusion to the rule.
When bla and dim level > 0

Works, thank you very much!
I just don’t know yet how to move the individual devices into the groups?
Is it also possible to integrate the dummy button into the right switch where the two sliders are currently?
I tried to read through this with the css-inject, but I can’t figure it out!

Moving devices into groups is quite easy. Just touch the device at the grey circle and move it to the desired group.

The CSS change is not easily possible and requires know how of web development. I can help you by hiding the unwanted slider but not with the grouping of multiple elements into one device.
For CSS questions please use the css-inject thread I linked some posts before.

Okay, if you can help me remove the slider, I’d appreciate it!

Please repost this question in this thread: https://forum.pimatic.org/topic/4183/new-plugin-pimatic-css-inject/

Just a side comment: It should also be possible choose the remote control for dual white in the App and pair it with the LED controller (using link command). You may need to “unlink” the LED controller first.

If that succeeds the MilightWWCWZone device type can be used.

Pairing with this remote control goes over the app,
but unfortunately it doesn’t work with pimatic and WWCW?!!

Did you try the next “remote control” shown on the right hand side of the screenshot you posted?
