Difference Between WS and LM in the app

(1/2) > >>

Knightrider:
Anyone else notice that a lamp module has 12 dimming steps, and the wall switch has 24?

I didn't know there was a hardware difference.

SkipWX10:
Hadn't noticed this until you mentioned it....never looked that closely. I always assumed that either was infinitely dimmable since you can set any percentage in AHP.

Knightrider:
So, is this a quirk or a bug?

I'd say neither the lamp modules handle dim differently then the switches.
Switches allow for a wider dim variance however with LEDs that isn't as noticeable.
I'm not sure why the developer choose to code this way as most just do a % value.

There's never been much logic or consistency to X10 Dim/Bright signals. See...
