Looking for some ideas on how to best control my bedroom zwave devices.
I had just a Zwave Light (using milight) and zwave fan controller.
Both switches are in a 2 switch gangbox. I use a cooper aspire light switch to control my milight in my bedroom (works great).
I recently installed a zwave roller shade. So now I have a situation where I have 3 things to control and only a 2 switch gangbox.
I am not for cutting or doing anything drastic to add another switch. If I did I would just get a 4 button scene controller and map them to full open, full closed, up and down.
I have ruled out using a tablet to replace it all because its a bedroom and can’t stay lit up all the time.
I do use a tablet in my kitchen to control everything.
Here is an example of one of my Minimote buttons code:
– Master fan low - high –
local dID = 99 – Master fan switch
local value = luup.variable_get(“urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1”, “LoadLevelStatus”, dID)
value = tonumber(value)
value = value + 33
if value > 99 then value = 33 end
luup.call_action(“urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1”, “SetLoadLevelTarget”, {newLoadlevelTarget =
value}, dID)
You could modify it so that one button operates it : Off, Low, Med, High, Off, Etc. by changing (if value > 99 then value = 33 end) 33 to 0.
