New macro, new problem ;)

I've put together this macro:

function(event, engine)

local Lamp = ("Begane Grond/Hal/DIMMER/Trapgat")

    engine.fire("Begane Grond/Hal/MACRO/Traplamp aan avond/CANCEL") engine.delay(0,300)

engine.fire("Begane Grond/Hal/DIMMER/Trapgat/SET?LEVEL=60")  engine.delay(1800,0)

engine.fire("Begane Grond/Hal/DIMMER/Trapgat/SET?LEVEL=55")  engine.delay(1800,0)

engine.fire("Begane Grond/Hal/DIMMER/Trapgat/SET?LEVEL=50")  engine.delay(1800,0)

engine.fire("Begane Grond/Hal/DIMMER/Trapgat/SET?LEVEL=45")  engine.delay(1800,0)

engine.fire("Begane Grond/Hal/DIMMER/Trapgat/SET?LEVEL=40")  engine.delay(900,0)

engine.fire("Begane Grond/Hal/DIMMER/Trapgat/SET?LEVEL=35")  engine.delay(900,0)

engine.fire("Begane Grond/Hal/DIMMER/Trapgat/SET?LEVEL=30")  engine.delay(900,0)

engine.fire("Begane Grond/Hal/DIMMER/Trapgat/SET?LEVEL=25")  engine.delay(900,0)

engine.fire("Begane Grond/Hal/DIMMER/Trapgat/SET?LEVEL=20")  engine.delay(3600,0)

engine.fire("Begane Grond/Hal/DIMMER/Trapgat/SET?LEVEL=5")

end 

Now if it runs, each command is fired each minute. It's very strange, I don't see this behaviour on other macro's. The Dimmer is an KNX-dimmer from MDT. What is happening and how to solve it?

Hallo 1990,

Thank you for your help, it was the "2" reset funktion of the box I did not get.

So after it blink 2 times, it worked.

So now for more questions.

How do I make one of my buttons to turn on/off the Philips Hue in the living room?

 

And I have made a button that turn Beoplay M3 to a radio channel.

How do I regulate the volume it starts in, and what program to start.

I can see there is a V and a P to regulate but is seems to have no effect.

Hi Emil,

Do you have the BLI Essential or Pro?

I have upgraded to Pro

I have a small idea on usability of BeoLiving App.

1. I have the list of favourites for my Radio,TV and NetRadio sources. When I want to choose the station, I am chosing the source, then go to favourites and then choose the needed station. Then... interface sends me back to initial state. Often I do not like the first chosen station and I would like to see what else happens on other favourites stations. Then I need to go through three steps again.

Proposal: Can it be done that one stays on the Favourites page and able to try other stations until one's happy?

2. Well, I have finally chosen the station and now just enjoying the music, but suddenly need to go somewhere. I take my phone, login to app and then I need to open the room and source to be able to shut it down...

Could you please consider placing the "standby" button on the first screen?

Let's take the example of Beo4, 5, 6, Essense Remote (I do not have BeoRemote one, so I do not know) and BeoComs (!). Those are always ready to change the volume of the Media systems and have the possibility to switch everything off. (not BeoCom, though). That was very intuitive.

Actually you can shut down on the starting screen. Just tap the device icon in a room

FYI

you can also quick access the other available functions (lights, controlls, thermostat etc). Just tap the icon

 

Hi!

I have a minor proposal for the Beoliving app.

For all rooms in my home I have created several scenes. Mainly for steering lights, starting products at a certain time etc. Over time the list of scenes grows and I would very much like to be able to rearrange them. 

A scene that I create now might be a scene that I would like to have on the top of the list but it will position itself at the bottom since it is the last one created. 

In the B&O app, it is very easy to rearrange the list of products simply by dragging the product to the desired position. I wish it would be possible to do in the same way in the Beoliving app.

Could you please take this proposal in consideration for future updates?

Thank you,

Miki
