Status field is unchanged

[Richard]

Using ver. Standard Edition 2.3.0.117


I set up and event to write to status so web page would show a value more accurate than On or OFF

panel dimmed # but now I can not remove it or reset it to ON or OFF

I thought that setting a status displayed value would help define better the activity of device ( maybe even a pending change as a process runs and completes) but could not get this to reflect my configuration.

It reads;

panel dimmed Interior Hallway Downstairs Front Lamp G2 G2 Today 2:19:43 PM

How can I get it to reflect a simple ON & OFF ??

Thanks.

If you are asking how to set it back to default your can urun this script using the Control link, Immediate Script Command:
&hs.setDeviceString "A1", clear

Tried that, did not clear device still have "panel dimmed" in status field.

see attached

Is another plugin that changes device strings controlling this device?

[Richard]

no just x10 and cm11a device.

the status field "box" in the device action was set to panel dimmed

and as you can see not it is stuck. ??

You could also try the immediate script, &hs.SetDeviceString "G2", ""
