Firmware v1.52 (Beta) | LZW31-SN | Dimmer - Red Series (Gen 2)

:laughing: Donā€™t jump off a bridge. LOL, I probably worded that incompletely. :blush: I understand their meaning individually. But it was comments in this other thread that muddied the water for me. :blush: LZW31-SN Internal Relay Disable - What's the point?

Yeah, pretty much its that simple. Thatā€™s how it works now with V1.47. The changes to v1.52 will break that.

My long diatribe was explaining that I realize the setting called ā€œsmart bulb modeā€ probably makes more sense to work like v1.52 so Iā€™m just looking for another way to get the v1.47 behaviour which should probably be called ā€œnon-dimmable loadā€ or ā€œdimming disabledā€ or something like that.

One way to do this, which I think would be very simple - without needing to create a new parameter - is to allow the existing parameter #5 ā€œMinimum Levelā€ to be 99 (allow a range of 1-99 instead of the current restriction of 1-45). This would have a two-fold benefit:

  1. Some dimmable LEDā€™s need minimum of 50 or more to turn on. (They can often be dimmed lower, but they donā€™t turn on unless the minimum is over 50)
  2. Allowing a value of 99 here would effectively disable all dimming but otherwise retain full control both local and remote.
