Lamps show 54% should be 50% ??

Hi

I created a scene to dim both my lounge lamps to 50%. The scene appears to work and the lamps dim down, however when looking in Vera web UI the two lamps often show 54% and not 50%

Any idea why ?

Thanks

Its doing the same for a 20% scene, they show as 24% in the Vera Web UI

Also is it not possible to create a scene and dim to 25% or 75% I could only seem to set 20% or 70%

You would need to input the desired values in the advanced tab of the scene creation to get anything not an increment of 10.

Garrett thanks, I have managed to change my scenes that had 20% and 70% dim levels so they are now 25% and 75% !

However now when looking in the Devices tab in Vera web UI after I run the scene to dim the lounge lights 25% the two lounge light devices are showing as 29%.

Likewise for the 75% scene the devices show as 79%. However initially for a few seconds they were showing correctly at 75% but then change themselves to 79%

So they seem to add 4% for some reason ? Anyone else seen this behaviour?

Thanks

I have a bunch of dimmers here and never observed this!
What dimmers are you using?

Strange,
I have ACT dimmers as well (US version though).
I am sorry cw-kid, I could only speculate… hopefully someone else can chime in here…

I have the UK verson. I set up a scene to test, but I’ve been unable to duplicate the unusual behaviour.

Weird… Just ran a 75% scene and gone in to devices tab and they currently say 75% on both lamps… But I dunno a minute later I look again and they now say 79%
