not turning on light but will update status

[ins4neuk]

for some reason i can get the status of the bulb when i use my phone to turn it on and that's fine but i send a string of on or off or status and nothing happens.

any suggestions?

Did you try sending a json formatted string like
{"on": false}
{"on": true}

?

i've put them on my smartthings hub now and sacked off the nodered idea.
