http://www.limitlessled.com/dev is now offline but is linked in various places due to being a resource for Milight/LimitlessLED api codes. As finding an archive can be difficult, this repo will contain some of those archives.

LimitlessLED DevAPI

http://limitlessled.com/dev is now down, but has been continuously linked and used as a resource for Milight/LimitlessLED application development.

Finding an archive of the page is pretty difficult, and this repo aims to save people a lot of time and act as a permenant backup of the page by containing various archives.

This page also will aim to contain various executables that were featured on the page. Right now this includes the V6 Bridge tool

This archive is from https://www.exalead.com/search/web/cached/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.limitlessled.com%2Fdev%2F

This archive contains all the important codes needed to develop applications for milight bridges. It should be the first one you read.

It includes the sections: "Wifi bridge v6 Apps that support RGBW and RGBW/WW/CW/CCT bulbs" and "LimitlessLED Wifi Bridge v6.0 Working Program code"

Therefore it's encouraged to go here for recent V6 bulbs but the other archive for every little detail.

A really old archive from: http://archive.is/www.limitlessled.com

Future Work

I encourage first of all people to download these API's for themselves.

Secondly, I would love to turn this repo into its own resource that properly organises the information.

RGB bulbs on v6 bridge?

Thanks for posting this.

I see the v6 full RGBW ("RGBW/WW/CW") bulbs are documented here, but, does anyone happen to have the documentation for the older RGB+W bulbs?

On the v6 bridge, the opening UDP bytes for a light command are always:
0x80, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x11, sess1, sess2, 0x00, seqNum, 0x00, 0x31, 0x00, 0x00

Where sess1 and 2 are the Session keys you got from opening a Session on the Bridge, and seqNum is just a rolling byte you keep incrementing with each send.

The total command is 22 bytes, and as you have in your docs, the full RGBW lights finish:
0x08, cmd, 0, 0, 0, val, group, chk

Where:
cmd is the ID of the command (like 0x01 for color)
val is the value of that command (like 0x80 for brightness)
group is which group in that category to talk to, 1-indexed (or pass 0 for all groups)
chk is the checksum of the rest of the command

So, the RGB+W older lights:
Can do Solid colors, but, no saturation
Can be switched between White mode, which is much brighter, and Color mode
No in-between and the white and color circuits can never power up simultaneously.

I have how to turn them off and on - they open like full RGBW lights but their final 8 bytes begin 0x07 where the full RGBWs open 0x08. For example switch on final 8 are:

0x07, 0x03, (isOn ? 0x01 : 0x02), 0, 0, 0, group, chk

Brightness:

0x07, 0x02, brightness, 0, 0, 0, group, chk

But I can't find the docs for the rest: How to switch between White and Color, and how to set the Color. Anyone have those?

YL5 5in1 Wifi Controller Alexa

Hello,

do you know the control commands for the MI Light YL5 controller too? I can offer the captured packets for comparison.

Thank you!

RGB+CCT Bulb/Wallwasher not controllable via iBox2

Hi there,

Currently using a spin-off of this repository to control a MiLight iBox2 and i can get the connection, with other words, i can send the commands to the iBox and receive the right message back from it, but it doesn't seem to work with the RGB+CCT bulbs/wallwashers which i would like to use from Milight.

Is there anyone who has an idea about this? I'm developing in C# with the code from user Milfje https://github.com/Milfje/MiControl

Cheers and many thanks in advance.
Eric
