Hi,

again @niloc16:
There are two ways to switch non-dimmable lamps programmatically.
1. Program a clock timer and assign the function clock timer to the socket
2. Program a dimming curve (of course knowing we don't have a dimmable unit) and only program 0% and 100% dimming points with shortest dimming duration (5mins). Then assign the lighting function to the socket.

Comment:
The new firmware 3.00, released in some days, will differentiate between dimmable and non-dimmable lamps. Then the programming for non-dimmable lamps will be the same as for the clock timers. Another firmware extention will be the temperature dependend shut off for non-dimmable lamps (with delay for metal halides). And some more new features.

Matthias
