HE107 switch?
Hi, has anyone managed to get these working. I knew dimming might be an issue but thought that simple on off would work, apparently they are compatable with remotes other than HE200 so I assume the HE advanced protocol. Examples on wiki not working, any ideas?

Hi Garry,
No problem - glad you got it working, I would like to see Dimming on the RF sockets, sure would be a nice addition to the HAH using the xAPFlash sliders on the joggler for example
Could this not be done with a Lua script to interpret the slide actions and send out repeated "on" a number of times
Andrew
Good job Garry. I don't know if you already have write access to the DbZoo Wiki but if you were able to share a writeup on this it would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Derek.
Garry,
I know I designed URF, and I'm glad you find it flexible, but reading your post I was impressed myself ! V..E..R..Y N.I.C.E.

Gary,
this looks great, im going to give this a go tonight :)
thanks
Andrew
Thanks Gary,
Big Light made me laugh, reminds me of a Peter Kay sketch
when you say slider, i take it you mean via xAPFlash on the Joggler or Bretts xAP framework?
Andrew
A big thanks for that explanantion Garry. Got my lights working fine now
Thanks for the excellent write up Garry
Did you happen to test additional addresses with your devices?
I am using the following 4 addresses with my devices (HE108C)
First two addresses work which are 10 as in your demo above, and 8 in decimal
1010 = 2,1,1,2,2,1,1,2
1000 = 2,1,1,2,1,2,1,2
Second pair, 6 and 4 are not recongnised by either of my devices
0100 = 1,2,2,1,1,2,1,2
I will try some additional address this evening
Hi Garry,
Indeed it is :) and Dimming would be the icing on the cake for me
Do i use your endpoint purely by specifying <source>dbzoo.livebox.Plugboard:LoungeLights."percentage"</source>
with this uid=FF00EE00 ? XFX is reporting a different uid=FF00D801
Also as my HE107 sockets are the learning variety, do i need to initially pair them with the on and off codes listed above?
Cheers
Andrew
Thanks Garry,
Thats exactly what im trying at the moment, a Joggler xAPflash slider - the WIKI level control or lcontrol: seems to refer to a different control and not a slider:
lcontrol: (Level control) Almost identical to control except that it also includes a level=100%
key/pair in the message. This ensures that a level based endpoint, for example a dimmed light, always comes back on at 100% brightness.
however it does also state a slider can be used
slider: Allows a SWF slider control to be embedded onto your page, to either control or display BSC level= items
Cant seem to find how to specify a level with a slider however
Andrew
Hi Garry,
Yep thats looks more or less the same as i have, i would agree prehaps the slider sends level commands as its would make sense for the volume and screen brightness slider commands built into xAPflash
im not seeing any BSC data on XFX viewer when i move the sliders so i expect somethings not working... I may make the move to Corona for the dimming sliders and ditch the Jogglers
Thanks
Andrew
It turns out, there are 15 dim levels for the HE units. I guess this makes sense as there are 4 bits assigned to the level. I also found that sending an 'ON' command for the full on level caused the lamps to go into 'auto dim'.
So a couple of mods were required but many thanks for the original code.
I've also found that the address has an effect on the dim suffix, an even address always has one set of dim suffixes and an odd address has a second set.
I'll upload the new code and both sets of suffixes and some more addresses in the next day or so, as away from HAH at the mo....
Hi Garry
Mods are in the slider post in the corona forum
Cheers for the good work

I was thinking about getting some of these for the BIG lights swmbo insists on using despite all my table lamps i have rigged up to the HAH / Joggler from the comfort of the sofa
Heres a few codes from the RF Helper for RS3 on/off or RS17 dimmer sockets (http://www.dbzoo.com/public/rf-helper.html)
I have listed A1-A3 - my RS3 go from A1 - D4 prehaps try these combinations first
A1 ON 01010177046504650177060127101900001500
A1 OFF 01010177046504650177060127101900001400
A2 ON 01010177046504650177060127101900401500
A2 OFF 01010177046504650177060127101900401400
A3 ON 01010177046504650177060127101900101500
A3 OFF 01010177046504650177060127101900101400
