Good morning, yesterday I entered the HA world with an installation on VM VirtualBox.
I inserted the 3 Shelly PlugS that I currently have connected at home into the dashboard, one on the washing machine, one on the dishwasher and one on the fridge/freezer.
It is precisely on this last one that I want to ask you for information, since I configured it with the PIN on the Shelly app to avoid accidental switching off of the app and total defrosting of the fridge/freezer.
Is it possible to also put the PIN on the shutdown slider on the HA dashboard for the same reason I put it on the app?
I can’t help you add a pin, but if you don’t want to follow francisp’s suggestion to remove it from the dashboard, you can make it a bit safer at least.
The below is taken out of context from 1 of my cards, but should give you an idea. Am on mobile so can’t check proper indentation.
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: switch.turn_on
data:
entity_id: switch.water_heater_switch
confirmation:
text: Turn on hot water?
This will show a confirmation modal once you click, so you don’t accidentally switch off your switch. You could go fancier and replace the above with hold_action, then set tap_action: none.
That way you’ll only be able to switch off if you hold the switch and confirm on the popup that shows up. Reference
