A pimatic plugin to control Milight LED bulbs and OEM equivalents auch as Rocket LED, Limitless LED Applamp, Easybulb, s`luce, iLight, iBulb, and Kreuzer.
Since the first release the following features have been implemented:
- Support for the Milight controller iBox1 and iBox2, including auto-discovery
- Improved auto-discovery supporting multi-homed hosts
- Support for bridge light of the iBox2 controller
- Milight color action to control color of MilightRGBWZone, MilightBridgeLight, and MilightFullColorZone. Note, the action currently only changes the hue value of the lights. Brightness control can be added, but unfortunately it is not possible to control saturation which limits the color rendition, drastically
- Implemented basic support for V6 full color bulbs (color temperature and saturation control missing to date)
- Implemented actions to control color temperature and brightness for MilightWWCWZone
- Implemented blink action to let the lights flash for given number of times
- Implemented actions control effect modes for MilightRGBWZone, MilightBridgeLight, and MilightFullColorZone
- Implemented saturation control for full color bulbs
- Implemented support for new 8-zone controller
The next steps are as follows:
- Improve the support for the new full color bulbs by adding the missing features, i.e. color temperature
- Provide a custom UI control
- Provide more actions for other stuff like advanced dimming with fading
As of version 0.9.14 the color device types now implement the default behaviour of pimatic dimmer, i.e. turning
the dimmer on will always set the dim level to 100%. If you wish to retain the old behavior, you set the device
configuration option keepDimlevel to true.

"plugin" : "milight-reloaded"
}The plugin has the following configuration properties:
| Property | Default | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| debug | false | Boolean | Debug mode. Writes debug messages to the pimatic log, if set to true |
It is suggested to use device discovery to choose the required device types from the list of discovered devices and to edit them with device editor.
MilightRGBWZone is used for the RGB-WW LED bulbs and strip controllers.

}The device has the following configuration properties:
| Property | Default | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| ip | String | The IP address if the Wifi controller | |
| port | 0 | Number | The port of the Wifi controller. 0 will automatically select the appropriate port |
| bridgeVersion | "legacy" | String | The protocol version supported by the Wifi bridge: Use 'v6' for iBox1 & iBox2, or 'legacy' for older controllers |
| zoneId | 0 | Number | The Milight zone to control. 0 will control all zones if supported by the controller |
| delayBetweenCommands | 75 (100) | Number | The delay time in ms to wait between transmissions, default 75ms. For 'v6' the minimum is 100ms |
| useTwoByteCommands | true | Boolean | Use 2-byte commands if true (default), otherwise use 3-byte commands. Only applicable for 'legacy' protocol |
| broadcast | false | Boolean | If true use IP broadcast mode, use unicast mode is used otherwise |
The following predicates and actions are supported:
- {device} is turned on|off
- switch {device} on|off
- toggle {device}
- dim {device} to {value}, where {value} is the percentage of brightness (0-100)
- milight set color {device} to {value}, where {value} is one of the following
- a six digit hexadecimal RGB color code preceded by
#, e.g.,#FF0000, - a rgb function provided with the decimals for the three base color values, e.g.,
rgb(255, 0, 0) - a CSS color name, e.g.,
red

- milight set nightMode {device}
The optional count parameter for for the blink action is used to specify how often the command shall be
executed within a value range from 1 to 10. The optional delay parameter specifies the time in milliseconds between
repetitions ranging within a value range from 0 to 10000. Invalid values will be silently transformed to the closest
valid value.
MilightWWCWZone is used for the WW-CW LED bulbs and strip controllers.

MilightFullColorZone is used for the full color (RGB WW/CW) lights supported with the new iBox controllers. Milight8ChannelFullColorZone is used with the new 8-channel remote controller along with full color (RGB WW/CW) lights. The new remote can manage up to 8 zones. Note, the 8-channel remote controller is not supported with all iBox controllers. It has been reported to work with recent makes of the iBox2 controller.
