Domoticz scripts

Milight Python script (API V6 - setup: Milight iBox + RGBW bulbs)

This Python script is able to communicate with a iBox (API version v6; see http://www.limitlessled.com/dev/). The script can turn on or off all lights (all zones), including the iBox, as well as changing the brightness and activating the DISCO mode. This script works perfect in combination with a virtual switch (ON/OFF) in Domoticz.

Domoticz integration

1. Put the script in your Domoticz scripts folder
2. Change the IP address of the iBox controller in the script: variable UDP_IP
3. Add a virtual/dummy switch in Domoticz (see https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Wemo#Creating_Dummy_Switches)
4. The ON action of the dummy switch could be set to: script:///<script location>/milight-home.sh ON This action will turn on the lights of the bulbs and the iBox. If you only want to have the bulbs on, execute the script as follows (put a device identifier (00 (=iBox), 07 (= RGBWW) or 08 (=RGBW)) as second last argument; specify the zone (00 or 01-04) as last argument): script:///<script location>/milight-home.sh ON 07 01 or script:///<script location>/milight-home.sh ON 08 01
5. The OFF action of the dummy switch could be set to: script:///<script location>/milight-home.sh OFF

Standalone usage

The script can also be executed in standalone mode of course:

$ python milight-home.py ON <device> <zone> (<device> = 00, 07 or 08) (<zone> = 00, or 01-04)
$ python milight-home.py OFF <device> <zone> (<device> = 00, 07 or 08) (<zone> = 00, or 01-04)
$ python milight-home.py DISCO1 <device> <zone>
$ python milight-home.py <command> <device> <zone> (see below for the list of valid <command>)

Complete command list (besides ON and OFF):

ON/OFF/DISCO[1-9]/DISCOFASTER/DISCOSLOWER/WHITE/BRIGHT[0-25-50-75-100]/RED/GREEN/BLUE/AQUA

Advanced usage: pass in the full 9 byte command

The script allows you to pass in the full 9 byte command (see http://www.limitlessled.com/dev/ for documentation). This can be useful when you want to tryout some commands or when you are debugging your setup.

$ python milight-home.py CMD <full 9 byte command> <zone>

For example:

$ python milight-home.py CMD "31 00 00 07 03 01 00 00 00 00" 00
