I just got a new bulb: LZW42 by Inovelli z-wave, and for some strange reason the ‘ramp’ rate of on/off is extremely slow, just turning the bulb on takes about 5 seconds to get to 100 brightness.
I can’t find a way to configure that through HA, does anybody have any thoughts?
Quick edit / FYI, the controller is: Aeon Labs ZW090 Z-Stick Gen
Have you gone to Device and Selected configure device?
Not sure what you mean by ramp rate, but doesn’t look like it has any ramping params in z-wavejs.
Ok, I see your edit. I think this may be a characteristic of the bulb.
by “ramp rate” I mean how long a lite ‘fades’ from 0 brightness to 100 (or 100 to zero, or 50-100, etc…)
INSTEON switches have the notion of ‘ramp rate’ so it’s the term I’m most familiar with, there may be a different term in HA land?
EDIT: Some other terms I’ve heard are dimming duration / speed or Transition time
I have a zwave bulb that has an instant on/ramp down to off that I have never been able to solve either.
Might just be something you will have to learn to live with.
You can try the light.turn_on service call with transition: 0 (or whichever number you want).
That’s it! Thank you. There’s so much to learn here… One thing I’ve learned about Home Assistant is that there are about 5 ways to do everything, which is both good and bad.
