API Calls

When configuring a “control another device” action in the BleBox app, an “API call” is required. The most common ones for controlling the wLightBoxS are as follows:

• Toggle on/off, last state: /s/offon/last
  Use this for toggling on/off using a single button or equivalent.
  If the output is off, turns it on with the last used brightness. If the output is on, turns it off.
• Turn on, last state: /s/onlast
  Turns on the output with the last used brightness.
• Set brightness: /s/{brightness}
Use this to turn on the output with a certain brightness.
  Sets the output to the specified brightness.
  Replace {brightness} with the brightness in hexadecimal, in the range 00–FF (decimal: 0–255). E.g., 00 (0) is off, FF (255) is full brightness, 7F (127) is half brightness.
• Set brightness for time: /s/{brightness}/forTime/{time}
Use this to set the output to a certain brightness for a certain amount of time.
  Sets the output to the specified brightness for the specified time. After the specified amount of time passes, the output will be set back to its previous state.
  Replace {brightness} with the brightness in hexadecimal, in the range 00–FF (decimal: 0–255). E.g., 00 (0) is off, FF (255) is full brightness, 7F (127) is half brightness. Replace {time} with the time in seconds, in the range 1–65535.
• Turn off: /s/00
Use this to turn off the output.
  See above. Uses the “set brightness” command to set the brightness to 0 (off).
• Increase brightness: /s/inc/{delta}
Increase the brightness by a certain amount.
  Replace {delta} with how much you want to change the brightness by, in hexadecimal, in the range 00–FF (decimal: 0–255). E.g., to increase the brightness by 25%, use 40 .
• Decrease brightness: /s/dec/{delta}
  As above, but decreases the brightness.
