New here. I just installed the Third Reality, Inc Smart plug (3RSP02028BZ) and updated the firmware to 0x1001305c so now I get this nice graph
It depends on what you mean…
If the power to that outlet is off or the smart switch dies, then the states of all of those entities will likely go to unavailable or unknown.
If something happen to the freezer itself you will see changes to the pattern of power consumption. You will need to let it run for at least a couple days so you can determine what is normal.
I was hoping that if the power went off and then came back on an hour later the switch would remain in the on position. Right now it looks like the freezer is use 0.5 kWh per day, Would it be a good idea to say if the power switch uses less than 0.1 kWh per day then notify me? Is that the normal way of not losing a freezer full of meat?
Do your switches not have the Start Up behavior selector?
Set the startup behavior to “on”.
Sad, this switch doesn’t have the start-up behavior option. I just unplugged the plug and plugged it back in again and the plug was in the disconnected position.
Thanks for your help!
I have the Gen1 version of the switch, and the ThirdReality website says “Third Reality Smart Plug is a simple solution to make the intelligence appliances smarter, like lights, fans, coffee makers and more. After the update, Smart Plug Gen2 keeps all former features and upgrade with real-time power monitoring and restore status.”, so I can’t imagine that they took away a feature.
I use ZHA- I wonder if that’s the difference?
UPDATE
It turns that the last few switches I installed are Gen2, like yours. And the power-on state is still there:
I’ve just added a few of these plugs. On the newer versions of HA the power_on_behavior shows up automatically. Under the zigbee config
Clusters
OnOff (Endpoint id: 1, Id: 0x0006, Type: in)
Attributes of the selected cluster
start_up_on_off (id: 0x4003)
StartUpOnOff.On
On my older version of HA this feature is missing and I’m unable to see anything past
off_wait_time (id: 0x4002)
I’ve tried manually sending the command under DeveloperTools->Services->zha.set_zigbee_cluster_attribute
ieee: ‘xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx’
endpoint_id: 1
cluster_id: 6
cluster_type: in
attribute: 4003
value: StartUpOnOff.On
But I don’t seem to be getting anywhere with setting the startup_on_off flag. I’ve tried several versions of value:1 etc but it isn’t triggering
Can anyone offer any pointers as to why the off_wait_time (id: 0x4002) doesn’t appear on the older HA and is there a work around to manually set the value?
I tried pre-setting the plug under the new HA but when I re-register the plug to the old version of HA it deletes the startup default settings
