Creating a switch action that toggles relay N number of times.

[michaelmedellin]

Hi, I'm attempting to configure one of the relays on a Shelly Plus 2PM to simulate setting a specific color mode on a light by switching the relay on/off N number of times with about a second between each toggle, where different values for N show different color modes.

I've looked at the the following garage example action: {"r":[[12,0,1.5],[12,1,0.5],[12,1,2]]}. I don't completely understand how the chain of actions order and execute. I've been playing around with different configurations, but haven't had any luck better than the twice toggle of the garage door example.

Is this possible with HAA and is there documentation I can read on how to fully utilize binary output actions?

Answered my own question. Turns out the inching time for binary outputs represents an overall timeline in seconds from 0 in which the level reverts back to previous state. So for example if you wanted to rapidly toggle a relay three times and ending in the off position you would need something like the following:

{"r":[[12,1,0.25],[12,0,0.5],[12,1,0.75],[12,0,1],[12,1,1.25]]}

Where the GPIO pin being toggled is 12, and the toggle occurs every quarter of a second.
