Duty cycle

Determines the PWM Duty cycle of an output. Only available if a PWM capable output (D0 - D8) is selected as an Output. This variable can assume any [VALUE] between 0 and 100.

HTTP

The device will accept HTTP requests at the following URLs:

(POST) http://[IPv4]/var_set?param=outval2_[PROCESS ID]&val=[VALUE]
(GET) http://[IPv4]/var_request?param=outval2_[PROCESS ID]



POST: http://192.168.1.255/var_set?param=outval2_1&val=50

will set the output Duty cycle on Process #1 to 50%.

Learn more in HTTP API.

Variable outval2 is shared with the High output, Track and RGB brightness.

MQTT

This parameter can also be accessed via MQTT using [PARAMETER] = outval2. Learn more in MQTT API.

Following two messages:

Topic: johndoe5896/home/garagedoor/sub/process_1/outval2
Payload: 50

will set the output Duty cycle on Process #1 to 50%.
