This blueprint and script can set and clear effects as well as configure the LED or LED strip on Inovelli dimmers, switches, and fan / light combo dimmers from the “Black”, “Red 500”, “Red 800”, and “Blue” series. Devices of different types can be called simultaneously. It will accept entities, the device ID, groups, labels, areas (or area: all
), floors (or floor: 'all'
), and find all Inovelli devices in the house. This blueprint and script can set everything at once—even if the devices are different series and being called from different combinations of sources (e.g. 2 areas, and 3 entities).
Supported Inovelli devices:
- Z-Wave:
- Zigbee2MQTT or ZHA:
[2025.04.09] Refactored entity selection code for performance; Z2M topic customization; allowed_domains variable.
[2025.04.09] Individual LED Effects (Red 800 and Blue Series only)
[2025.03.30] Selector Mode and Device filters
[2025.03.18] Handling Devices with No Manufacturer or Model ID
[2025.02.23] Labels! (For areas, devices, and entities)
[2025.01.03] ZHA Stability, Better Z2M Entity Detection, and Z2M 2.0.0 Compatibility (and it’s a LOT faster!)
[2024-11-02] Fixed LZW30-SN effect clearing; area and floor selectors.
[2024-07-16] Fixing Effects for Blue Series ZHA and Red 800 Series Devices
[2024-06-23] Floor selector and individual LED control
[2024-03-28] Added ZHA support and brightness levels were converted to float. Devices that support 0 – 100 brightness levels will be multiplied by 10; devices that support 0 – 10 brightness levels will be rounded off.
[2024-01-24] Black series support, correcting some effect values in the Blue series, and some general cleanup.
[2024-01-05] Adding support for Blue Series devices and groups of devices. These groups can be of the light.* or group.* domain, and any combo of Blue or Red series switches, dimmers, or fan / light combo devices.
[2023-05-01] The script will use the areas() function introduced in 2023-04 to accept “area: all”. This will search each area Home Assistant knows about, and apply the settings to all compatible Inovelli devices.
[2022-06-06] Areas and devices no longer need to be lists (entities were already being converted if they were in list format). This should make the script much easier to call from automations and scripts using templates.
[2022-05-17] Fixed a typo that caused an error when setting “pulse” effects on switch devices.
Setting the LED indicator
These parameters are all optional and can be configured together or individually (to change the brightness at sunrise but not the color, for example).
- LEDnumber: (Blue Series only; LED 1 .. LED 7 or All) Set to `all` to configure the whole LED bar (default if the parameter is left out) or configure a single LED.
If specific LEDs have been set, they'll need to be unset before the LED bar will show anything. The easiest way is to call LEDnumber 'all' with LEDcolor 'all clear'.
- LEDcolor: (int or string) Sets color of the status LED. If LEDcolor_off is defined and supported by the device, this is only used for "on" status.
If a "color set" is used like "all unicorn", LEDnumber cannot be set to "LED {n}"; "all" LEDs must be configured or none will be.
- LEDcolor_off: (Red 800 and Blue Series only; int or string) Sets color of status LED when off, for devices that support this feature.
Note that the Blue Series and Red 800 Series support separate colors for on and off while the Black 500 and Red 500 Series devices do not and will ignore the variable.
If a "color set" is used like "all unicorn", LEDnumber cannot be set to "LED {n}"; "all" LEDs must be configured or none will be.
- LEDbrightness: (float 0.0 – 10.0) Sets the brightness of the status LED. If LEDbrightness_off is defined and supported by the device, this is only used for "on" status.
LEDbrightness is multiplied by 10 or rounded off for each device, depending on whether they support 0 – 100 or 0 – 10 brightness levels. This was done for backwards compatibility with old automations.
- LEDbrightness_off: (Red 800 and Blue Series only; float 0.0 – 10.0; see note above) Sets the brightness of the status LED when off, for devices that support this feature.
Required for setting LED effects
All four parameters must be passed in order to cange the effect.
- duration: (string) Either "Off", or a whole integer followed by "Seconds", "Minutes", "Hours", "Indefinitely", or "Forever".
- effect: (string) Where older devices and individual LEDs don't support a given effect, that effect has been mapped to something that is supported.
- brightness: (integer 1 – 10) Sets the brightness of the LED's effect
- color: (int or string) Sets color of LED effect and must be one of: "Off", Red, Orange, Lemon, Yellow, Lime, Green, Cyan, Teal, Blue, Purple, Magenta, Light Pink, Pink, Hot Pink, White
Color sets like "all usa" cannot be used with effects. I can't think of a way to get all 7 LEDs synchronized for effects like "pulse" or "chase".
Selector Mode:
Select devices that meet ANY requirements (logical OR) or ALL requirements (logical AND). Since the default for selector_mode:
is any
, you can leave this field out / unselected and get the same result. Blueprints and script calls written before this feature was added do not need to be updated, and will have the same behavior as before.
Turning off the LED bar for everything that’s upstairs, OR ANY fans:
This service call will turn off the LED bar for all Inovelli devices that are upstairs, and also all fans in the house (e.g. upstairs, downstairs, in the garage, or outside).
service: script.inovelli_led
data:
selector_mode: any
domain: 'fan'
floor: 'upstairs'
LEDcolor: 'Off'
LEDcolor_off: 'Off'
Turning off the LED bar only for fans that are upstairs:
By using selector_mode: 'all'
, we can now limit the entities to upstairs fans. Fans that are downstairs, or lights that are upstairs will not be changed by this call.
service: script.inovelli_led
data:
selector_mode: all
domain: 'fan'
floor: 'upstairs'
LEDcolor: "Off"
LEDcolor_off: "Off"
Domain:
Include all entities with domain(s) light., fan., or switch.* or deselect for all. In the background, it uses areas()
and selecting all three domains makes it functionally equivalent to calling area: 'all''
.
