Gradually turn on lights.

[Matohl]

@pabla Yes, I used it before in Reactor but do you know if it's working in MSR as well?

[Pabla]

@matohl Can't confirm for MSR unfortunately

[Matohl]

@toggledbits Great!

[toggledbits]

Don't sweat it. Let me take a look and give a mapping a try. Just keep in mind, I don't have the device, so I'm flying totally blind--I can build, but I can't test. I rely on your hands and eyes for that.

[Matohl]

Dont worry, I was refering to your comment "...mappings for color lights, which were incomplete...". We will take us on the Harmony when it comes

Can confirm that Vera Reactor has Harmony support. You’re able to start/end activities and send device commands too

Sounds promising if it already works in Reactor plugin for Vera.

In addition I'd need to be able to also tell which Harmony Activity is currently active? Or if the Power Off activity is active etc.

The AltHue plugin works fine as well

In MSR or in the Reactor plugin for Vera?

[Pabla]

@cw-kid Yes

@cw-kid Both

[cw-kid]

@matohl Is it ?

I can't see how to run a Hue Scene or start the ColorLoop off the Hue Bridge.

There doesn't appear to be any Actions implemented yet against the AltHue device.

[Matohl]

@cw-kid You are running the AltHue app in Vera, right? Not looking at the Hue app but do you see your lamps in MSR as entities?

[Matohl]

@cw-kid ! Like this?

[cw-kid]

Yes the AltHue plugin.

Yes I see my Hue lamps listed in the Entities

I can turn them on and off and control other basic stuff.

But can't see how to initiate a hue scene for example.

[Matohl]

Ok Hue scenes I missed that. That is probably not implemented yet

[cw-kid]

AltHue lamps in Vera are standard Vera RGB dimmer devices are they not. That is why they are working now with MSR for basic controls.

However I don't think any of the AltHue plugin specific functions have been implemented yet in to MSR.

[cw-kid]

You can see better what I mean from this screen shot from PLEG.

We are currently missing the functions of the althue service ID

RunHueScene and SetEffect (ColorLoop) etc.

[cw-kid]

And here is a list of all the Harmony plugin service id functions

[therealdb]

As @rigpapa said, he needs to map them.

Since we're at it, I think both my VeraAlexa and VeraTelegram plug-ins are good candidate as a native MSR plug-in, since they could be written as node.js/bash script. Virtual HTTP Devices plug-in is using standard services, so we should be good.

[cw-kid]

Indeed.

I'm not currently using your Telegram Vera plugin, I'm just sending out HTTP requests from Vera also now from MSR, to their Cloud API / my Telegram account.

MSR Doesn't natively support Telegram messenger either by the looks of it.

[therealdb]

And that’s ok if you want to send text only, but images/videos could be complex, since you need to send a file as well.
