Lights turns on at startup even when said to not do it.

I have entered this under platform: artnet default_level: 0 send_levels_on_startup: true

and then under each device i have default_level: to the DMX value that i would like the lamp to have when i turn the light to on.

Then home assistant would send the first default_level: 0 to the lights and then when i turn them on it should send the devices default_level.

Now what happens is that when i start home assistant the lights turns on automatically and it sends the devices default_level directly without considering that i have the first default_level to 0

Here is my code in configuration.yaml

` light:

• platform: artnet host: IPADRESS port: PORT dmx_channels: 9 default_level: 0 send_levels_on_startup: true devices:
  • channel: 1 type: rgb name: parcan_rgb default_rgb: [255,255,255]
  • channel: 6 type: dimmer name: parcan_mode default_level: 0
  • channel: 7 type: dimmer name: parcan_master default_level: 255
  • channel: 6 type: dimmer name: parcan_automixmode default_level: 129
  • channel: 4 type: dimmer name: parcan_strobe default_level: 255
  • channel: 8 type: dimmer name: uvpar_master default_level: 255
  • channel: 9 type: dimmer name: uvpar_strobe default_level: 255

I just spotted in the doco on https://www.home-assistant.io/components/light/ that you can setup a light_profiles.csv file which defines the default turn on values for lights -this will let you do what you want to do. In that case, you could remove all reference to default levels from the dmx component and define what you want to happen in the light.default profile
