[QUOTE="ronsonol, post: 151864, member: 48959"] Patrick, For dimmable, here is what I am seeing now; When the device is off, the first button still sends the bright command of 10 to turn it On. After polling now, dim is returned as 10, and the level image stays the same(yellow bars a tenth of the full image). If I send the bright command again, it shoots up to 20. After this I can dim back down to 10. If I dim again, the status turns to ON, with no yellow level bars in the image. If you know what I mean. I am not seeing the update to 90 like I was yesterday, but this may have been my mistake... I was also playing around with the remote for X10 I have. It will turn the device ON first, before it sends a dim command. I think the trouble here, when a device is off, the first button needs to send the ON command, not Bright 10. Using that sdk program from the forum you mentioned, when I turn on the lamp...the status shows as 100 in your plugin, with the correct image levels. Then, dim/bright work exactly as they should. If I use the toggle button, everything works as it should - the lamp goes on, 100%full image levels, and I can bright and dim as expected. Maybe this is how its suppose to work, I'm still a little unclear...I guess from using other software I get in the habit of pressing the first button to turn something on. Many thanks for all your great work, [/QUOTE]
