I don’t have the hardware, so that would make it really hard to test. Sorry.

You are using the function for getting the status of a light, you should use: getSensorStatus Thanks I am now getting the correct status reading. Apologies for being slow here but I was expecting to get a reading of the various sensors, however I only get it's ID number and software version. What d...

I am trying to read the ambient light level off the Philips Hue Indoor Motion Sensor Once I have this data I will change the brightness of my monitors to match. It may be that i'm using the plugin incorrectly: I am trying to get the sensor status as per the following image: https://i.imgur.com/Hxs8...

Just wanted to say thanks for this great plugin.

I am having some trouble trying to change lights based on ambient light level of the motion sensor.

Is this plugin still actively worked on? I see the last comments were from last year.

Many thanks,

What are you trying to do and how?

I have reuploaded the plugin. It's available in the first post.

Try the newest version and come back if it still fails. There was a change in the API some versions ago that might cause the error you are experiencing.

If I may ask. How does your plugin get the events from the hue bridge ? Would like to react to events instead of making api calls. ( In case I will be able to create app myself // learning to code atm). Does your plugin somehow listen to events from the bridge ? Or are you polling the API ? You mod...

Is the Pulse command a special Hue Bridge command like colorloop? Because I would like to change the intensity (from lowest brightness up to highest) and change time (like 10 sec, or 60 sec). Ahh and btw.: When I want to set brightness to 100% I have to add the Dim Up command (with 100 at "Dim up i...

My Philips Hue plugin will not work with the IKEA Trådfri bridge. The API is diffrent. But I've seen on the web people using the Philips Hue Bridge with Trådfri lights (without the IKEA bridge). I currently don't have IKEA Trådfri so its hard to make a plugin. If I get my hands on one I will try.

I got the notification this time, it looks like the last one maybe got stuck in the spamfilter.

New version ready in the first post. Should fix the problem stoffix had and some others. :) 0.4.3 by Aquila 2018-03-03 - Fixed bug in SaveStatus where non-colored lights made an error. (Thanks to stoffix for reporting the bug.) - Fixed bug in "Search for new lights" 0.4.2 by Aquila 2016-10-18 - Non-...

Hi!

Sorry for late reply, the email notification seems to not work anymore.

The error comes because you use lights with no "hue" setting. I only have colored lights, so I have not noticd the error previously. I will look into it.

Oh I see, interesting. What version of Hue do you have? Is it Generation 1, 2 or 3? Is it "get status as command"? Hue bridge is gen 2 (there is no gen 3 bridge), most bulbs are gen 1 and some are gen 2. I have not gotten my hands on gen 3 bulb yet. I have to have use for the bulb to buy one, they ...

Just got a Hue gen3 starter kit and playing around with your plugin now. Working pretty well so far! Just wondering, I can't seem to make a cold white. How do I change the Kelvin to 4500? Using "change to white" makes it lime green and setting the "saturation" to 0 +" brightness" 254 on "change lig...

I use the bridge, EG and my own plugin (PhillipsHue), I don't get delays when handeling the lights. I do get delays in handeling events in EG with the remotes. This is because Phillips will only allow pull of data, no push. :( You mean you get delays when trying to relay message thru Philips' own r...
