Help restoring previous state on LEDs

#21

Wooh must admit most of that is beyond me :frowning:
but i will give it a go tomorrow when i can get my head around it getting late here (UK)
one thing i did notice on that is you capture the attributes on a separate “with” to the restore shall i separate mine?
And noticed on mine it says after the capture “Only if store is empty” but yours doesn’t say whys that.
Thanks for all your help

#22

ehh, if you look through it a bit i am sure you will figure it out.

ok.

no that was just the flow for my piston.

yeah, i was thinking about that. lets remove that for now. just dont hold on to the button multiple times within seconds of each other, so the captured valuea do not get overwritten. :slight_smile:

#23

import this one and try:

Thanks for all your effort with that pal…
But that didn’t work either stays green all the time.
Maybe it’s like you say it’s the device not allowing it I’ll try and contact the guy who wrote the firmware to see his thoughts.

#25

sure thing. sorry to hear. mind if i ask, what is the brand of the bulb?

#26

It’s not a bulb it’s a RGB controller (H801) for my LED step lights.
I flashed it with SmartThings firmware which works great.
There is a setting in the Smartapp to restore previous state on boot so it must remember.

Sorry about the late reply I got a message saying reached maximum posts for a new member lol

#27

ok. if you dont mind my asking the obvious, did you import the piston i posted or modify the one you had, for the last try?

#28

also, would you try this one please and post the log output?

Hi sorry been in bed night time here :slight_smile:
Yeah I imported your piston , I’ve just imported that piston but can’t test it till later now as I’m in work :frowning:
Thanks

#30

hey, no worries, all of us have to sleep and work. :slight_smile:

#31

Just tried that latest one and it didnt work either :frowning:
I did notice though after the 10 second wait the light flickered but stayed green and also if the lights are off when the piston runs it will flash green then turn off as it should its only when the lights are on it doesn’t work properly.

#32

hmm … do you have the log output? what were the values?

#33

From what i can make out it seems to run and do what it should i can’t see any errors

thanks. now please turn off logging and lets see the values printed from these statements:

#35

actually please delete line 47, 48 and 51, 52 and try it again.

so remove the restore statement for saturation and hue and their corresponding waits.

#36

just tried still no luck.
i’m not sure how you see the values for statements
is it in that evaluation console?
i set it to value but didn’t know what to put lol
if you have no more ideas don’t worry about it i’ll leave it as i’m not that bothered about getting it to work i just thought it would be handy

#37

from the logs you shared here are the values. in seq, they are level, saturation, color, hue and switch. as you can see only level, color and switch have a value. so, we should only capture and restore level, color and switch values and not the others.

#38

if you do update the piston with this, please share an anonymized snapshot of the piston.

thanks.

#39

Changed Them and still the same lol
Thanks for all your help on this I think I’m going to leave it now it’s taking up to much of both our time.
Thanks for all your help though

too bad. yeah, i am not feeling like we are making any progress with this one.

next step would be to look at the live logging in the IDE and see if can get more details of what might be happening.

but, like you say may not be worth the trouble :-/

sorry.
