I have a Hue motion sensor set to turn on my living room lights between 11 pm and 7 am when it detects motion, then turn them off after 1 minute.

The problem is that if I'm still awake and already have the living room lights on after 11 pm, the automation interferes with them.

Is there a way to make the automation run only if the lights are off when motion is detected, so it doesn't interfere with lights I've turned on manually?

I thought enabling the "Do not disturb" option is the fix but it doesn't seem to do anything.

I bought the Philips Hue Bridge Pro (BSB003 | 6.1.2071524040) based upon the published specifications (see https://www.philips-hue.com/en-us/explore-hue/faq/controls/how-many-hue-bridges-do-i-need) that said I could have up to 50 accessories (including sensors) attached:

I paired 12 sensors (SML001 & SML003) with no issue, and then the 13th sensor would not pair. I tried three different sensors, including an old SML001 (running 67.166.1 | 100b-10d) and new SML003 (2.85.1 | 100b-11b). I put the sensors right next to pro bridge (touching). Nothing would pair. I removed one of the sensors (making 11 total) and then I could add a new sensor.

Is the documentation incorrect or is there some caveat regarding the 50+ accessories (like I need a repeater)?

Edit: I'm answering my own question. I was able to pair a generic zigbee outlet with the bridge and then I could pair a 13th sensor with no issues. So, there is an undocumented limit on the number of sensors that can be directly connected to the pro, but if you put in repeaters you can get above 12.

I hope this is not a dumb question, but I have the flux strip and I think I might have broken one of the pins that connect to the adapter? It seems like there should be 4 instead of 3.

Is there a way to fix it?
I tried to find a solution but failed to do so

Hi Leute,

Ich habe einen neuen 77 zoll oled und wollte gerne Ambilight ausprobieren, geht das auch mit einem Hue Flux Striplight und der Hue Sync App?

Hey all!

I bought a HUE Bridge Pro from a coupon I still had, then added a Wall-washer for my Gaming area.

Now I want to take the next step, which should be a gradient LED strip on my 27' inch monitor. However, looking at Philips HUE NL (Netherlands) store, and after going through many retailers' webs hops - it seems definitively the 27' inch LED strip for PC is sold out / out of stock.

The only available thing is the 27' inch LED strip + a bridge (starterkit). But I already have a bridge.

So would anyone know, is this normal for HUE items to go out of stock? How will I know if/when it will get back in stock?

Kind of crazy to me that a regular HUE item like that is nowhere to be ordered as a single item, so not as a starterpack.

Thanks..,

Maurits / Netherlands
