I’ve got a few dimmable Wemo bulbs setup around the house. They’re working just fine in OH2. Currently, I have both the Items and Things configured through PaperUI. I did initially configure everything in files and got that working properly, as well. The only piece I’m can’t figure out is how to get the brightness level to display in the sitemap. My Thing is bound to the brightness outlet of the bulb and when I was using files for configuration, I had entries similar to this in my items file Dimmer Porch "Porch Light [%d %%]" { channel="wemo:MZ100:Bridge-1_0-231445B010xxxx:94103EA2B278xxxx:brightness" }
I found an example of this in the docs. So, my question is:
How do I get the brightness value to display and can this be done in PaperUI?
Ok, so two questions.
Thanks
PaperUI is an adminstration UI. It does not show sitemaps and it doesn’t show or let you control Items. It only lets you control some Things for testing purposes.
You need to create a sitemap and use Basic UI or Classic UI or use HABpanel.
Sorry, i misspoke. I used PaperUI to configure everything, but I also have BasicUI installed and its in BasicUI where the value is not being displayed. I also have a sitemap. But is there anything wrong with the syntax of my items entry? Is there a way to accomplish this in PaperUI, or must this be done in an items file?
Thanks
I’m getting these errors in the logs for my Wemo bulbs:
2017-07-20 23:06:02.069 [ERROR] [ome.binding.wemo.handler.WemoHandler] - Failed to get actual state for device 'wemo:socket:Socket-1_0-221710K01048A3': Could not call WeMo
Switch item=Porch_Light_Switch label="Porch Light Switch"
Slider item=GarageLight_Brightness label="Garage Brightness"
Switch item=Garage_Light_Switch label="Garage Light Switch"
Switch item=PatioLight_Switch label="Patio Light Switch"```
In Habmin, the brightness level is displayed, but not in BasicUI. I've googled and found no definitive answer, can someone provide some insight?
I'm having trouble formatting the item definitions. They should be preceded with the text:
```Dimmer Porch_Light_Brightness "Porch Light Brightness```
and
```Dimmer GarageLight_Brightness "Garage Light Brightness```
I wrapped those lines with three backticks, but they got cutoff anyway.
The error I see in the logs is:
```Failed to get endDevices for bridge 'wemo:bridge:Bridge-1_0-231551B01006E7'
