The "new" Milight IBox and milight binding

I have a Nodemcu set up and I am able to control both old and new bulbs through the web UI of the nodemcu… were you able to integrate the device with this openhab binding… or with openhab in general?

EDIT: as you said, scanning does not work, but I was curious if you were able to add manually either through PaperUI or through config files. ive attempted both and could not get it working

Hi,
I have a 6w color bulp and an iBox1
IBox has been manually added, Ibox and bulb work through the android app

I’ve tried it in any way described in the wiki

Do I need a newer version of the binding? If so, where can I find the jar file.

the latest attemt is

Thing file

Bridge milight:bridgeV3:ACCF23A6C0B4 [ ADDR=“192.168.1.xx”, ID=“F0FE6B16XXXX” ] {
Thing rgbwLed 1
}

Openhab 2 (os Linux) Milight Binding 2.0

I’ve read the topic but I’m not sure

While I was developing the​ current version of the binding, I wasn’t aware that the ibox supports new v6 bulbs and old V3 bulbs. The add-on will block this combination, even if configured manually. I will add support for this in a revised binding version.

Cheers David

Hi David keep up the good work,

i am waiting with anticipation to try a newer version of the binding.

Now i can’t even control the light on my inBox…

If there is anything i can do let me know

Thanks…

Hello,

i have a Problem with this Binding, I have one old WiFi Controller and one iBox2 but openHab is finding only the old Bridge as a Bridge. the iBox2 is listed as unknown device.

What can i do to make the iBox2 available?

Thanks!

Hello guys,

maybe somebody can help me out here because im going crazy. I have openhab 2 running on an ubuntu pc. all my other bindigs are working fine i have max! and Mqtt… i have been trying to get them´milight binding 2.0 working since 2 weeks , i configured it via the paper ui by adding the bridge manually because the discovery was not working. After adding the bridge manually (entering the ip adress) it apears in the inbox. other items also apear in the inbox


Afterwards i created the things via the paper ui:

and then finally the items:

whatever i click whatever i do nothing happens:

the binding does nothing . I am new to openhab and my knoledge on this still needs to grow but however i managed to tail the log :

another thing that i tried is to enter the ibox mac under thing id . if i do that however the bridge doesn’t appear as online anymore.

I am using the IBOX2 bridge and it is working with the app. the bulbs that i am using are RGBWW
http://www.gearbest.com/smart-lighting/pp_435807.html

Another funny thing that happens is the following : i tried sniffing the trafic on the OpenHab server when clicking arround on the switches for brightness .
It appears that from the openhab pc some data is being sent to the bridge but it appears that it doesnt reach it.

Please take a look in the following picture (192.168.0.45 is the openhab machine and 192.168.0.81 is the bridge)

and finally i am attaching the config from the web interface of the bridge:

Nothing happens also if i modify the protocol from tcp to udp in the network parameter setting, i also tried that

maybe there is an incompatibility issue between my harware (bulbs, bridge) and the binding.

If somebody can tell me whats wrong i would really apreciate it.

@Adi_Vacaru the 2.0 version of the binding does not support the newer IBOX bridges. For IBOX support you need to be using the 2.1 version from the snapshot repository.

oh, Thanks a lot. I’m not sure how to do that but i will give it a try. is it by any chance installing the snapshot release from openhab ? or is there also a snapshot release of the binding ?(i’m new to this so bear with me.)

like described here : http://docs.openhab.org/installation/linux.html

Auto discovery need to work, forcing a configuration is almost never necessary. The old V3 bridge (not ibox) doesn’t provide much feedback therefore it may appear online in paperui if configured manually, although there isn’t any physical device. Ibox is more sophisticated and supported since the 2.1 version of the binding. With 2.2 the ibox support will be extended for using older bulbs.

It works , it doesnt let me change the animation speed but i can live with that. Thank you for your help MikeJMajorMike Major and David_Graeff

I have exactly the same setup with the ibox2 but it´s still not working, even if i install the newest version 2.1.

With the mobile milight app it´s no problem, and i also see the milight bridge online and in paper ui its also recognizing the zones and all online - but nothing happens whenn i switch on the light or changing the color - i dunno what i´m doing wrong.

Only thing which looks strange to me that he shows the milight box in v2 compatibility mode. I´m using RGBW 6w Bulbs.

Would be awesome if u have a hint for me what the problem could be.

Cheers & Thanks for the great work on this binding!
Gero

EDIT: I also add the bridge manually - after that it´s detecting all the zones automatically in the inbox.

i can tell you what i did:

  • i added it as thing

  • all the nice items apeared in the inbox :

  • then selected RGBWW ( Zone 3) ---- Add as thing

  • next go to Configuration -> Things and click on Rgbww Color (Zone 3) or the zone you want

  • afterwards link it to items and go to control and you can controll it.

Ah man - great - thanks for your explanation!

I think i didnt get it that i also have to install the new openhab version - i just installed the new 2.1 milight binding on openhab 2.0!

will install and think that i´m also able to do it afterwards! Thanks a lot! you guys rock!

cheers,
Gero

now you made me curious when i tried to install the binding on the official release from openhab 2 in the binding tab it would only show only 1,9.0 and 2.0 . how did you install 2.1? does anybody know this? Is there a way of installing binding other than the paper ui ? (sorry for the noob question)

i just put the file manually in the addons folder via samba filetransfer on mac - after restarting oh2 i was able to access it and search with the milight binding in the inbox.

downloaded the jar file from here:
http://oss.jfrog.org/oss-snapshot-local/org/openhab/binding/org.openhab.binding.milight/2.1.0-SNAPSHOT/

i dunno if its the correct way to do it :smiley:

FYI

I just installed the snapshot version of OH. And now its working with milight!!!

only thing which is not controllable is: the nightmode, animation speed. But its ok 4 me.

Thanks a lot!
Gero

Same here! Nightmode and Animation Speed are not working. Nightmode is not important for me -i create my own “Cinema Mode” which dimm the light to 25% with one button press.

But to get a working Animation speed would be great because the Rainbow animation i to fast for me and i want it to set a bit slower. Is there any solution? @David_Graeff & @Adi_Vacaru?

Yes nightmode is not really important for OH users, as we have rules etc…

It´s really cute to dim the lights with the rule by pressing play on chromecast. But at this moment it´s not recognizing the “play press” when you press it at the app which you are using for casting, just directly by pressing play in OH.

Dunno if there is any workaround for this, to transmit the play button press from other apps. But this is the wrong thread for this topic :slight_smile: i think

Next step for me with the working milight binding will be kind of an automatic scene realization like sunrise emulation and so on.

I have know David may know as i think he is doing the development. I’m just a user that got things to work.

Ok, I guessed you had already create a functional thing or item for Animation Speed.

So we must wait till @David_Graeff has time to write :slight_smile:
