As mentioned in the documentation, the nanoloeaf Controller plugin supports all the standard Indigo UI controls.
In particular, it supports Device Actions > Light/Appliance Controls > Brighten by % | Dim by %
This means you can use another device to control the brightening and dimming of the nanoleaf.
I have tested using a Z-Wave Remotec Scene Master ZRC-90 - see http://www.vesternet.com/z-wave-remotec-scene-master
As an example, you need to set-up an Indigo Trigger as follows:
- Trigger
- Type: Z-Wave Command Received
- Event: Incoming Command Received from Device
- Edit Event Settings...: From: ZRC-90 Device, Received: Button 1 Held Down
- Condition: As required - not used?
- Actions:
- Type: Brighten by % (Light/Appliance Controls)
- Device: nanoleaf device
- Amount: 2% (or value as required)
I guess the same could be done with an Insteon dimmer switch but I don't have any Insteon devices?
Hope this might prove useful
PS. I have implemented a change to enable this in my LIFX plugin and so I thought I had better check out whether my nanoleaf plugin would work and support this as well? I was pleased to find it did - the LIFX plugin update will follow in a short while.
