Milight Binding

The Milight binding allows openHAB to send commands to multiple Milight bridges.

There is also a binding specifically for openHAB 2 here.

Binding Configuration

This binding can be configured in the file services/milight.cfg.

Property	Default	Required	Description
<MilightId1>.host		Yes	the IP address of the first Milight bridge to control
<MilightId1>.port	50000	No	UDP port address of the first bridge to control. Has to be changed for the V3.0 version of milight bridge to 8899
<MilightId2>.host		Yes	the IP address of the second Milight bridge to control
<MilightId2>.port	50000	No	UDP port address of the second bridge to control. Has to be changed for the V3.0 version of milight bridge to 8899

Examples, how to configure your receiver device:

bridge1.host=192.168.1.100
bridge1.port=8899

Item Configuration

The syntax of the binding configuration strings accepted is the following:

    milight="<deviceId>;<channelNumber>;<commandType>;<steps>"

where:

• <deviceId> corresponds to the bridge which is defined in the configuration
• <commandType> is optional for switch items, unless you want to use commandType nightMode, whiteMode or set dimming steps.
• <channelNumber> corresponds to the bulbs/channels on your bridge, where 0 reflects all white bulbs, 1-4 white bulb channels and 5 all rgb bulbs.

For the new RGBW bulbs use channel number 6 (all RGBW bulbs), 7-10 (RGBW channels 1 to 4)

• <deviceCommand> corresponds to the way you want to control your Milight bulbs.

Valid command types for white bulbs:

Command Type	Description
brightness	controls the brightness of your bulbs
colorTemperature	changes from cold white to warm white and vice versa
nightMode	dimms your bulbs to a very low level to use them as a night light

Command types for rgb bulbs:

Command Type	Description
rgb	changes the color and brightness of your rgb bulbs
discoMode	changes the discoMode for rgb bulbs
discoSpeed	changes the speed of your chosen discoMode

The following command is valid for RGBW bulbs only :

Command Type	Description
whiteMode	sets RGBW bulbs to white mode

• <steps> is valid for RGBW bulbs only and has to be used with commandType=brightness.

This optional setting can be used if your RGBW bulbs are not dimming in 27 steps as this is the default (See the API).

Limitations

The RGB bulbs do not support changing their saturation, so the colorpicker will only set the hue and brightness of it.

Examples

How to configure your items in your items file

Switch Light_Groundfloor    {milight="bridge1;0"}                   #Switch for all white bulbs on bridge1
Switch Light_GroundfloorN   {milight="bridge1;0;nightMode"}         #Activate the NightMode for all bulbs on bridge1
Dimmer Light_LivingroomB    {milight="bridge1;1;brightness"}        #Dimmer changing brightness for bulb1 on bridge1
Dimmer Light_LivingroomC    {milight="bridge1;1;colorTemperature"}  #Dimmer changing colorTemperature for bulb1 on bridge1
Dimmer RGBW_LivingroomB     {milight="bridge1;7;brightness;27"}     #Dimmer changing brightness for RGBW bulb1 on bridge1 with 27 dimming steps
Color Light_Party           {milight="bridge2;5;rgb"}               #Colorpicker for rgb bulbs at bridge2

The command types discoMode and discoSpeed should be configured as pushbuttons as they only support INCREASE and DECREASE commands:

items:

Dimmer DiscoMode        {milight="bridge1;5;discoMode"}
Dimmer DiscoSpeed       {milight="bridge1;5;discoSpeed"}

sitemap:

Switch item=DiscoMode mappings=[DECREASE='-', INCREASE='+']
Switch item=DiscoSpeed mappings=[DECREASE='-', INCREASE='+']

Disco Mode for RGBW bulbs can only be stepped in one direction, so please use INCREASE command only for those.

Example for Scenes:

items:

Number Light_scene      "Scenes"
Color  Light_scene_ColorSelect "Scene Selector"   <colorwheel> (MiLight)    { milight="bridge1;10;rgb" }

sitemap:

    Selection item=Light_scene mappings=[0="weiß", 1="rot", 2="gelb", 3="grün", 4="dunkelgrün", 5="cyan", 6="blau", 7="magenta"]

rules:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSL_and_HSV

    rule "Light Scenes"
    when
    Item Light_scene received command 
    then
    if (receivedCommand==0) { 
        sendCommand(Light_scene_ColorSelect, new HSBType(new DecimalType(0),new PercentType(0),new PercentType(100)))
    }
    if (receivedCommand==1) { 
        sendCommand(Light_scene_ColorSelect, new HSBType(new DecimalType(0),new PercentType(100),new PercentType(100)))
    }
    if (receivedCommand==2) { 
        sendCommand(Light_scene_ColorSelect, new HSBType(new DecimalType(60),new PercentType(100),new PercentType(100)))
    }
    if (receivedCommand==3) { 
        sendCommand(Light_scene_ColorSelect, new HSBType(new DecimalType(120),new PercentType(100),new PercentType(100)))
    }
    if (receivedCommand==4) { 
        sendCommand(Light_scene_ColorSelect, new HSBType(new DecimalType(120),new PercentType(100),new PercentType(50)))
    }
    if (receivedCommand==5) { 
        sendCommand(Light_scene_ColorSelect, new HSBType(new DecimalType(180),new PercentType(100),new PercentType(100)))
    }
    if (receivedCommand==6) { 
        sendCommand(Light_scene_ColorSelect, new HSBType(new DecimalType(240),new PercentType(100),new PercentType(100)))
    }
    if (receivedCommand==7) { 
        sendCommand(Light_scene_ColorSelect, new HSBType(new DecimalType(300),new PercentType(100),new PercentType(100)))
    }
    end
