Missing Children … Devices

I have a bunch of VZW31-SN dimmers where I am trying to replicate the functionality of setting colour bar temp based on outdoor temp. I was using child devices before, but these are not available in newer drivers.

This was my RM code:

Trigger Events: Temperature of Weather *changed*

IF (Temperature of Weather) >= 32 THEN
	Set color: Inovelli Dimmer (Child LED Device) -> Custom Color -> Hue 2 -> Sat 100
ELSE-IF (Temperature of Weather) >= 24 AND <32 THEN
	Set color: Inovelli Dimmer (Child LED Device) -> Custom Color -> Hue 11 -> Sat 100
ELSE-IF (Temperature of Weather) >= 18 AND <24 THEN
	Set color: Inovelli Dimmer (Child LED Device) -> Custom Color -> Hue 22 -> Sat 100
ELSE-IF (Temperature of Weather) >= 12 AND <18 THEN
	Set color: Inovelli Dimmer (Child LED Device) -> Custom Color -> Hue 33 -> Sat 100
ELSE-IF (Temperature of Weather) >= 7 AND <12 THEN
	Set color: Inovelli Dimmer (Child LED Device) -> Custom Color -> Hue 44 -> Sat 100
ELSE-IF (Temperature of Weather) >= 0 AND <7 THEN
	Set color: Inovelli Dimmer (Child LED Device) -> Custom Color -> Hue 55 -> Sat 100
ELSE-IF (Temperature of Weather) >= -6 AND <0 THEN
	Set color: Inovelli Dimmer (Child LED Device) -> Custom Color -> Hue 66 -> Sat 100
ELSE-IF (Temperature of Weather) >= -15 AND <-6 THEN
	Set color: Inovelli Dimmer (Child LED Device) -> Custom Color -> Hue 77 -> Sat 100
ELSE-IF (Temperature of Weather) >= -30 AND <-15 THEN
	Set color: Inovelli Dimmer (Child LED Device) -> Custom Color -> Hue 83 -> Sat 100
ELSE-IF (Temperature of Weather) > -40 AND <-30 THEN
	Set color: Inovelli Dimmer (Child LED Device) -> Custom Color -> Hue 92 -> Sat 100
ELSE-IF (Temperature of Weather) <= -40 THEN
	Set color: Inovelli Dimmer (Child LED Device) -> Custom Color -> Hue 98 -> Sat 100
END-IF

I do see an option to set a custom action in RM that changes LED colour, but this activator has multiple fields. RM only allows setting one for a string or number, or I just can’t wrap my head around the metaphor of how to set that field from RM.

The child devices were so handy before.

Thanks!

RM does allow for setting multiples together – the general gist of how to do it is in the “Using Rule Machine” portion of this article.

In the Hubitat community, there have been quite a few posts over the years about setting up and managing the 2-1’s LEDs (more about the Blues since they came out first, but AFAIK, LED mgmt is the same as Reds) – searching that community should yield some good “ledEffectOne” and “ledEffectAll” examples and info.
