2 dimming expansion modules

Post by cliffwagner1 »

I have searched and cannot find support for running 2 dimming expansions. I am going to run 3 each 3 channel lights independently. Can anyone help me out or do I need to pull the trigger on a 16 channel from rimai?

Both options won't give you visibility on the portal :(
Only the first module will show up.
You can control them, but you would not see the values on the portal or any app we have out there.
The code to control both of them would be the same.
It's been integrated into the libraries by another user :)

So, I suppose now I have a request for portal and/or android app support. Any chance of getting that done?

You could use the Custom variables as a proxy and then you'd see the channels and be able to set them if desired.

so it's simply adding in a second standard dimming module?
based on Robertos comments, it sounds like the data gets sent if enabled. is that correct? of course it's in the dev branch and it will eventually make it into the main release.
