Taking minutes for lights to appear in kelvin/ not appearing ever? #31
Comments
Hi Jordan, I'm glad you like Kelvin! Let's try to get it working for you. First thing to note: If this is your situation I suggest the following troubleshooting steps:
Aside from these steps there is not much we can do. Kelvin will poll your bridge every second. This should not be the reason for a long delay. I use physical switches at home and Kelvin usually takes 5-10 seconds to take control. If your lights don't appear at all you should check the logs:
Hope this helps! Let me know if you got your setup working! Stefan |
Thanks for the speedy response! I'm not using classic power switches anywhere, only the Hue remotes. Some more details- it's not always the same lights that Kelvin doesn't seem to detect. I've got 29 pot lights on my upstairs, and it's not always the same bulbs, or tied to a physical area. It is seemingly random which ones just don't get affected by Kelvin. I've never had delays with my hue remotes being undiscoverable, or not being able to communicate with the bulbs either. I'll run with debug on and see if I can find anything else. |
Starting with release v1.1.5 Kelvin will log if a light was switched off or became physically unreachable. I suspect the later to be the problem in your case. If you find the time please update and have a look at the logs... |
Sorry for the delay- just tried again today on the latest version- I can use iConnectHue to turn off lights with basically no delay from app to light. With Kelvin running, it takes several minutes for the logs to reflect that the light was turned off. There's no lag on iConnecHue, or on my physical hue switches either. I'm still stumped! Any other ideas on troubleshooting? Thanks again! |
First off, thanks so much for writing this library! It's exactly what I'm looking for. I'm hoping you can help me troubleshoot. I've got kelvin running, but some of my lights seem to never be detected or effected by Kelvin. I don't have any issue with my hue switches seeming to control my bulbs instantly, but there is sometimes a few minutes delay for the Kelvin logs report detecting a light. Is this a Kelvin problem, or a hue bridge/zigbee problem? Would love to get your thoughts on where to start troubleshooting- I want this to work so bad!
