INSTEON Commands (indigo.insteon.*)
Commands that are specific to INSTEON devices.
Send Scene ON
This command will send an INSTEON Scene ON command to the specified PowerLinc scene.
| Command Syntax Examples |
indigo.insteon.sendSceneOn(11)
|
indigo.insteon.sendSceneOn(11, sendCleanUps=False)
|
indigo.insteon.sendSceneOn(11, suppressLogging=True)
|
indigo.insteon.sendSceneOn(11, updateStatesOnly=True)
|
indigo.insteon.sendSceneOn("working in office scene")
|
indigo.insteon.sendSceneOn("working in office scene", sendCleanUps=False)
|
| Parameters |
| Parameter | Required | Type | Description |
| direct parameter | Yes | integer or string | either the scene number or the scene name - we encourage numbers since they won't change and the scene names can. |
sendCleanUps | No | boolean | a boolean indicating if cleanup messages should be sent to each device in the scene after the scene command - this will have the PowerLinc send each device a message to make sure it received the command. You might want to stop cleanup messages from being sent because it involves adding a lot of INSTEON traffic and might effect performance (particularly if a group has a lot of responders). But, of course, disabling it may reduce reliability of some modules receiving the scene command so it's usually best to ignore this setting. (default is True) |
suppressLogging | No | boolean | a boolean indicating if entries in the event log should be suppressed (default is False) |
updateStatesOnly | No | boolean | use if you only want Indigo's internal device state representation to be updated - no actual INSTEON command will be sent on RF or the power line (default is False) |
Send Scene OFF
This command will send an INSTEON Scene OFF command to the specified PowerLinc scene.
| Command Syntax Examples |
indigo.insteon.sendSceneOff(11)
|
indigo.insteon.sendSceneOff(11, sendCleanUps=False)
|
indigo.insteon.sendSceneOff(11, suppressLogging=True)
|
indigo.insteon.sendSceneOff(11, updateStatesOnly=True)
|
indigo.insteon.sendSceneOff("working in office scene")
|
indigo.insteon.sendSceneOff("working in office scene", sendCleanUps=False)
|
