Lutron Caseta Dimmers are no longer fading on in webcore

piston

#1

1) Give a description of the problem

I recently returned after being away for a week and noticed that my Lurton Caseta Dimmers are no longer fading on to a given percentage in Webcore. What has changed since I have been away?

2) What is the expected behaviour?

I have been using the “Fade Level” for about 2 years now in pistons, but it appears to cause errors now.

3) What is happening/not happening?

The dimmers are not fading ON by the input percentage.

4) Post a Green Snapshot of the pistonimage

Below follows a test piston that I have been using to trouble shoot the issue. This has always worked for me.

5) Attach logs after turning logging level to Full

As you can see at +98ms I am now getting a java error that states command is not supported.
I can dim it in Smarthings and using Alexa.

Marking this as resolved as it is a duplicate of what can be found here

Probably the same thing that’s happening to the users in the thread here.


#3

Yep, sounds like a widespread problem with any wifi dimmable devices on ST. Through a linked thread on my thread, it sounds like it’s gotten the attention of ST engineers, so hopefully we’ll get a fix soon!


#4

In this thread the error message refers to the ‘placeholder’ device type, which is what you’d expect with a modern C2C integration. Curiously yours had a Lutron device type which is more typical of a DTH.

Cloud integrations do seem to be the common factor at the moment.

Thanks @orangebucket for the link.
