Philips Hue control from Loxone

[Antti_K]

Hi,

I was wondering if it could be possible to integrate Philips Hue system to Loxone?
Are there any suitable extensions awailable on the market? Or can it be done by using Config software?

And how about the visualization of Hue lights in the Loxone app?

I saw there was some discussion on german forum...but don't really understand it


Best regards

Well, my English is not so good and it is possible, that you can't understand this also :-)

In the German discussion you can find an PicoC-Script. Use it in the program-block (16). At the top of the script you have to insert your data (IP of the HUE-Bridge etc.). Also you have to set the type of your lamps and the ID's of your lamps/groups. The output of the light controller has to be connected with the input of your program-block. That's it.

Because there is no way to set the actual state in the light controller, it doesn't make sense to retrieve the state from the bridge. But it would be possible.

Thanks Sven!

I'll have a look on that and will give it a go.
Just need to wait few more days for my Hue order to arrive

Don't forget to obtain a user-ID from you bridge. Link to documentation is provided inside the pico-code

Ok Guys!

I Think I need some assistance:

- I created username in my Hue Bridge (2.0) with API Debug tool. (http://www.developers.meethue.com/do...etting-started)
- I added lighting controller and program module to Loxone config. (http://forum.loxone.com/attachments/...xample.loxplan)
- I changed the IP address of my bridge to the pico-code. Line 152.
- I changed the username and IP address to the line 163 inside the code.

What am I missing since the lights won't lit up?

I can control the lights with my smartphone app. So they are connected to the bridge..


Hilfe!

Antti_K, you're using outdated code...
the newest code is availabel here: https://www.loxforum.com/forum/faqs-...xone-verwenden

don't forget to set the type of signal you're sending to the programm (RGB, LUMITECH, 0-100%, ON/OFF) and the which lamp-ID should be connected to the according input.

Also check the logs for compiler erros... there is also DEBUG-flag in the code to get more detailed logging information.


I've translated the comments on inputTypes for you, so you can set them more easily:

// Hier die Funktion des Eingangs definieren:
// 0 = RGB-Eingang (Eingang LoxoneFormat, 9-stellige Zahl die RGB codiert mit 100100100 für weiß. Ansteuerung der Lampe via Hue/Sat/Bri
// 1 = Dimmereingang. Eingangswert muss im Bereich DIMMER_MIN / DIMMER_MAX sein. Ansteuerung der Lampe via Bri.
// 2 = ON/OF - Eingang (z.B. für Steckdosen-Adapter)
// 3 = RGB-Eingang (wie '0', aber steuert Lampengruppe via Hue/Sat/Bri)
// 4 = RGB-Eingang (wie '0', aber ansteuerung der Lampe via X/Y/Bri)
// 5 = Dimmereingang (wie '1', Ansteuerung der Lampe via Bri/Ct, GlŸhlampensimulation)
// 6 = RGB-Eingang (wie '0', aber steuert Lampengruppe via X/Y/Bri)

// 0 = RGB-Signal (Loxone foramtted, RGB is encoded using 9 diggist (3 digits red, 3 for green 3 for blue. White is encoded as 100100100, half dimmed blue is 000000050). Lamp will receive an Hue/Sat/Bri command
// 1 = Dimming Signal (Percentage. Set min/max values in variables DIMMER_MIN / DIMMER_MAX). Lamp will receive "Bri"-Command
// 2 = ON/OFF Signal (0/1. used for socket adapters)
// 3 = Like type "0" but sends Hue/Sat/Bri command to a group of lamp
// 4 = Like type "0" but sends X/Y/Bri command to a single lamp
// 5 = Like type "1" but sends Bri/Ct command, simulating a classic bulb
// 6 = Like type "4" but sends Hue/Sat/Bri command to a group of lamp

Hi,

Getting closer.. I think.
Lamps are not lit, but now it only says in the log that "Creating Stream failed ", after I try to put them on from Loxone app.

I have two lamps: Lamp 1 is Hue Bloom and lamp 2 is Hue Iris. These I have configured as "RGB" in the config.

Here is what I have in my program...Can you see something weird?:

Antti, that's totally unreadable. Post your code as an attachment, so it won't get f*cked up by your editor...

[Antti_K]

Sorry about that... I'm such a noob

Please find my code attached.

[Andreas Lackner]

If you feed an RGB-signal (white will bei 100100100), you've to use inputType 0,3,4,6
If you feed an Percentage-Signal (DIMMER_MIN to DIMMER_MAX), you've to use input type 1,2,5

So maybe lines 38/39 should be
inputType[0] = 0;
inputType[1] = 0;

Also change Line 13 to
int DEBUG_LEVEL=2;
so full log is writen.

Makes some tests and post log...

[Antti_K]

Hi

Those changes sure made some difference in the log. But was not able to lit those lamps :/
In the log it is shown when I start my smartphone app, and try to control the lights.

[Andreas Lackner]

Are you sure about the bridges IP-address? I don't know the structure of your network, but be sure hue bridge can be reached by your loxone server.

[Gast]

Hi Andreas Lackner, hi svethi

I already wrote into the German forum, as I saw a long discussion there. I am not sure, if I done it right, I will try the English forum, maybe it is more suitable.

I already have working Hue integration with Loxone. I have Loxone miniserver1, I have 25x Hue Bulbs White Ambiance. I am using the most recent version of your script. I am able to turn them on and off as well as dim them to some % of the power. I am using RGB output in Loxone, and 0 as the input config in the script.

I am trying to change the White temperature with Loxone. from 2200K - 6000K or similar. I set up moods in Loxone Lightscontroler module, but it does not help.
I have tried a lot of resources, I have tried playing around with different config setup.

Does anyone of you have a White Ambiance E27 light bulb? Are you able to change the white temperature with Loxone?

I would be super happy to get this working, as I have already spent countless hours trying. I am a technical person, but I can't solve this one.

If you may share a little bit of your knowledge, it would be really appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance.

update :

it looks like i need no help after all , i want to post a update should there be someone having the same issues i had ...

everything was correct configured, only difference is i am using Markers ... the marker had to be changed from digital to analog , now it works like a charm (with the LUMITECH configuration) , i'm not sure why this made it work and i am more than happy to learn something more about it, if you can explain it to me that would be nice ...

friendly greetings.

Hello Mighty5nake,

thank you for your comment. I am sorry I could have not helped earlier. It seems, that your comment may help me.
I am using Lumitech now and bulbs are White Ambiance. I am able to turn on, off and to change MOOD-white temperature, which is great.
But now for some reason, I am unable to use dimming function. Do you say switching to Analog may help?

Hi Mighty5nake, i am unable to use dimming. i tried to follow your steps. what are markers please?

[mbee]

Thank you very much Mighty5nake for the "markers in analog" trick! I was searching how to use the "tunable white" Hue bulbs with Loxone for months, now everything is working fine.
Gast : what Mighty5nake calls a marker is a Memory flag. Set them to analog (otherwise they can only put 1 or 0, which explains why you cannot dim your lights).

Hi all,
I do not want to open a new thread.
I prepare pico code as in image. 2 first lights are RBB and last 3 is white. My problem is with turning off the lights. When I use double click the lights RGB go off only and White is still on. When I tap 1 and switch between modes the White lights move to off. I wondering how to off all lights by double-clic.
The only solution/workaround is to set up the white tube as an RGB and in that case double click works
