Can scenes/themes only be used as a trigger? I want to use them to change the color at a particular time/day (my contractor setup Halloween... ) and if I'm Rule Machineing it right, that doesn't seem to work (they don't show up in any list).
On to my snag. When creating a rule, and setting the scene/theme as a Trigger, there are no options for Select Attribute so I can't move on.
@Hubirat wasn't sure from the thread if you got it working. Here is how I was able to "push" a "button" like that in rule machine. In the image below, "Morning exercise" is the name of my theme:
Another shoutout to Russ for adding a new feature to his Luxor integration.
You can now optionally add a prefix that will be applied to all of the child devices of a controller. This is helpful if you have multiple controllers. An example will make it clearer.
Before the change, If you had 2 controllers named "C1" and "C2" and you created a theme in the Luxor app named "Theme1", then Hubitat would have 2 child devices with the same name: "Theme1" as a child of "C1" and "Theme1" as a child of "C2", each controlling a different set of lights.
In the new version, if you apply the prefixes "C1_" and "C2_" to the respective controllers, your child devices will be named "C1_Theme1" and "C2_Theme1". This makes it easier to select the correct child device in various apps like Rule Machine.
To upgrade simply do an "Update" in the "Hubitat Package Manager" app.
Here are the details from his readme:
Configuration
You only need to know your Luxor controller's IP address. You can find this on the controller itself under the Wifi/Wired settings page.
Enter the IP Address on the setup page and click Next.
Optionally, add a prefix for the naming convention. Useful if you have multiple controllers. Include any separators and spaces that you want. EG "Front: " will create a device "Front: Luxor ZDC Controller".
The screen will refresh every 2 seconds, up to 2 minutes, looking for the controller.
When the controller is found, select "Save" and wait up to 1 minute for all of the devices to be configured.
@Hubirat, Russ just pushed an update that has fixed the theme naming problem for me.
Do an update in HPM, It should upgrade you to version 1.2.2.
Once installed I reran the app, which fixed everything. I suspect that you can also hit the refresh button on each of your Luxor devices or simply wait until it runs it's next update cycle.
I realize this thread is almost a year old but i am having an issue with this app recreating the child devices almost every night,,, i have Hubitat connected to Homeseer and running some automation in Homeseer but my devices keep dropping out as i mentioned. When i check them in Hubitat, the ID on the child devices are different and they dropped out if the Maker API,, any insight to what i may be doing wrong?
) and if I'm Rule Machineing it right, that doesn't seem to work (they don't show up in any list).
is off my back and I can actually use RM to set up some rules (well, really just add to an existing rule).
