How they are wiredĬlick here for non harmonized colours Notes, Junction boxes need to be in an accessable location for inspection. Alternative markingĪlternative markings may also be used as in this diagram. Hint, if the light switches off when the switch is in the on position, swop the wire from L1 to L2. WebCoRE is overkill for this scenario, but lays the groundwork for more complex automations.A two way light switch can also be used instead of a single way light switch by connecting between wither Com and L1 or Com and L2. Install and use WebCoRE and any switch or virtual switch as a trigger. ![]() Install and use the Trend Setter SmartApp: Trend Setter Still, you can just tap it twice to resync the state. ![]() This is a bit harder because if lights in the group are turned on without the virtual switch being used, it will not indicate the correct state. See #3, but add a Virtual Switch instance as the trigger. Now you can toggle all those lights from the “trigger” Switch. The simplest case is to use one of the real lights in your group as the “trigger” to control the rest. It can use any Switch to trigger any set of lights. Use the Smart Lighting SmartApp (Automation / Marketplace). This is necessary because SmartThings does not expose Scenes to ActionTiles (darnit!!! ). Create a Routine for each Scene that does nothing but Activate the Scene. Routines can only dim in 10% increments, but aren’t bad.Ĭreate various Scenes (at least one for on and off) setting the dim level and colors of your Lights. Here are some ways to do this … I can’t say which is the simplest or most appropriate for your level of experience and needs but they are listed roughly from simplest to most complex…Ĭreate an “on” Routine and an “off” Routine and add these two Routine Tiles to any ActionTiles panels. One of our support Forum relevant Topics for this is: Grouping lights for off/on commands / ActionTiles Forum / AT Support & Ideas and Ĭombining multiple switches (lights, etc.) into one Virtual Switch or a single Routine, or a Scene called by a Routine, or triggered by one real Switch is a relatively common SmartThings function, not specifically limited to ActionTiles! Learning how to group lights using SmartThings tools is helpful to everyone, not just ActionTiles customers!!! It’s a reasonable request, but one of hundreds of desired features. Unlike other front-end Apps like Amazon Alexa, we haven’t put “light grouping” or “scenes” as a feature into our front-end… yet. I just can’t figure out how to combine multiple smart bulbs into one tile for on/off operation. ![]()
