(NEW RELEASE) version 3.8 of the Edge Driver “Zigbee Level ColorTemp Bulb Mc”:
-
Added new profile for color temperature with range between 2000k and 6500k
-
New Circadian Lighting Function as Custom Capability and can be activate and deactivate from automations or escenes:
-
This Function requires the offset in hours of your local time with UTC time to be entered in preferences. Because the Lua functions for the Edge driver only return UTC time. If this is corrected, it will be removed.
-
The active schedule for Circadian lighting will be from 6 a.m. at 6 p.m.
-
The variation of Color temperature will be between 2700 k and the maximum value chosen in preferences between 3000k and 6000k
-
The variation of intensity will be made between the minimum and maximum values chosen in preferences by the user. The preferences “Circadian Lighting MIN Level %” and “Circadian Lighting MAX Level %” are used.
-
The Color Temperature and Level values are updated every 10 minutes
-
The variation curve of the set will be as in the following examples:
-
Out of the active schedule, when the light is turned on it will turn on with the level and Color Temperature values of the last shutdown. It can be manually changed and will remain until changed again or powered up within the active circadian lighting schedule.
-
The priority logic of the different functions will be:
-
If Random ON-OFF is Enabled:
- Progressive ON and OFF are deactivated
- Circadian Lighting is deactivated
-
If Progressive ON and / or OFF is activated:
- Random ON-OFF is deactivated
- Circadian Lighting is deactivated
-
If Circadian Lighting is Activated:
- Random ON-OFF is deactivated
- Progressive ON and OFF is disabled
-
If external commands of variation by steps of the Level or ColorTemp are sent:
- All running Timers are stopped and the values recived are kept
- NO functions are disabled
-
For each device paired to the driver, you can choose different functions and settings at the same time.
-
As we already have the local time, I have changed the information for the next random change in the Random ON-OFF function. The time at which the next change will be made is now displayed. Thus it is reduced to a single event per change in history.
-
