Why are you setting the level of the light to "MASK" ?!
it should be a number 0..255
For that debug message to appear, you have published "MASK" to the MQTT topic
Only if homeassistant is doing that without my knowledge which i doubt. Only if that is some handshake issue. But only i did so far was running your code. But maybe there can be another issue i will try to confirm. My container name is same as your project. And i am tracking information about containers using some HA integration. So maybe there is some conflict in topics.
Did you do any sort of configuration in Home Assistant ? Because the daemon should have configured all the devices for you, without any human intervention.
Hmm that is weird but MASK string issue disappeared too. So confusing. I will let you know if i will notice it once again. But i think some fix similar i did would be good to be sure data are correct.
No these errors appeared directly after running your python code. Didn't have time to go and do something in HA
A warning should be logged indeed, but I advise against setting an arbitrary level. Would you like to open a PR ?
Yes sure. Just to clarify the MASK word always appeared at the beginning when i run code. But if i kept it running and was doing changes using HA all values were correct. But when i closed and run app again, i got MASK word again and then it worked ok again. Sorry for a lot of "again" words. Now the word sometimes appear sometimes not at the beginning of running application.
Once i will have more time i will try to debug it more why it appear randomly at the beginning.
there is no "MASK" in my code 😬
and worst... that setter is called at https://github.com/dgomes/dali2mqtt/blob/master/dali2mqtt/dali2mqtt.py#L276 which does a cast to int... so no string should have ever reached the setter.
I'm available at Home Assistant discord with the same handle as here, if you would like to reach out to expedite debug
I appretiate your offer ;) And also how quick are you responding.
Do you think these level cals may not cause the issue with mask?
variable is different... it's __level not level
but if the error is coming from that part of the code it means the driver (Tridonic) is storing "MASK" instead of a value..... again the issue is in python-dali... it need to be standardised there IMHO
Not doing any Colour queries... would find quite odd to ask for brightness and the driver returning colour :/
