External level step and external color temperature steps are used to increase or decrease a certain value step by step from a routine or with a device such as a button, for example.
I have a remote control with 6 buttons and in each button I have routines to increase and decrease one or more bulbs in fixed steps.
button 1:
- pressed: turn off
- Pressed twice: decrease level 10%
- Pressed 3 times: decrease level 20%
button 2:
- pressed: turn on
- Pressed 2 times: increase level 10%
- Pressed 3 times: increase level 20%
You can do the same for color temperature.
