Limitlessled

Configuration

I use exactly the same setting with RGBW bulb in Living room and white in Bed Room, both number 1…however when turning on either only the RGBW bulb in living room turns on. I can turn them on/off, controll features separately on iOS Milight app and 2.4Ghz remote. See my config snipped below. Help appreciated fellas

Perhaps you may need to specify bridge version (and port) with the introduction of V6 bridge into the component?

That setup was a suggestion for how to fix Bob_NLs problem, I have a V4 bridge so my config is actually…

- platform: limitlessled
  bridges:
  - host: 192.168.1.90
    version: 4
    port: 8899
    groups:
    - number: 1
      type: rgbw
      name: Kitchen

@dolfinking same here, configuration changed:

light:
  platform: limitlessled
  bridges:
    - host: 10.0.0.144
      version: 4
      port: 8899
      groups: 
      - number: 1 
        name: Living Room
      - number: 2
        name: Diner Table
      - number: 3
        name: Hall way

@Bob_NL & @BarryHampants thankyou guys for your quick response
I have the v6 and I guess the port is 5987. I have tired combinations of version: 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 with Port: ‘8899, 5987’ only the 6 with 5987 triggered the RGBW light (at least), but all failed to triggered my white lights. I have since read another discussion that has an unresolved white light control issue for v6 bridge

Hi!

I had the same issue. But now it’s solved.

This is the version of my Milight:

Software version: V1.0.04a-JCY-1
Wifi Workmode: STA
Port ID: 8899 (maybe you have another port. To check it> go to the Ip adress of Milight>Other Setting>Port ID)

At the end I’ve solved it with this code:

light:
- platform: limitlessled
  bridges:
  - host: 192.168.1.133
    version: 3
    port: 8899
    groups:
    - number: 1
      type: rgbw
      name: TEST_01
    - number: 2
      type: rgbw
      name: TEST_02
    - number: 3
      type: rgbw
      name: TEST_03
    - number: 4
      type: rgbw
      name: TEST_04

I hope it can be usefull for someone.

Strange, for me it works for ages without any version and port specification. Just this simple, and it goes like a train:

I’ve been also troubleshooting this now for days without success. Here’s what I know:

Milight boxer app works, I have one rgbww light connected to zone 1.

My configuration:

light:
  - platform: limitlessled
    bridges:
      - host: 192.168.1.66
        groups:
        - number: 1
          type: rgbww
          name: bedroom

I have tried setting the port manually (tried both 5987 and 8899).

I have tried setting the version to 4, 5 and 6. Does someone know what versio this is?

In Home Assistant, the light does show up but controls don’t work. How can I see the logs of limitlessled?

Never got limitlessled working, but luckily after finding these instructions MQTT finally works! Also, playing with milight-hub radio settings improved the transmission between the hub and the lights. (Before I had to repeat the messages.)

Does anyone know how to troubleshoot the communication between limitlessled and the hub? Could I netcat to the hub and send REST commands via UDP?

You have bedroom, but it should be “bedroom” i think

Hi, I’m struggling with limitlessled (the 2.4Ghz gateway) and bumped into your post.
What is this screenshot from?
