Device status information

[Motspassants26 (Mathieu Gilles)]

Hello
I finally managed to get my Alexa routines back into Home Remote Designer after updating Home Remote Designer and installing Runtime 5.0 to have Install.net.
Thanks for these tips
When I control my lamps with a button in Home Remote Designer I have the information @ Device.switch on or off and this information goes back well in smartlife for example, but if I first order my lamp with my phone application, the lamp lights up but @ Device.switch does not move
Is there a procedure to read the status of my lamps and put them back in Home Remote Designer?
Regards

We are only allowed to poll Tuya/ Smart Life 1 time every 10 minutes. It is very easy for the status to get out of sync especially if you are controlling from multiple sources (phone/designer/etc).

If you want realtime feedback for Tuya/Smart Life, use the SmartThings integration as mentioned here:

Support for Smart Life/Tuya Devices

Having Smart Life linked to SmartThings and SmartThings to Home Remote has the added benefit of the device status in Home Remote updating with little to no delay. This is how I have my devices set up. If Smart Life is connected to the Home Remote directly, Home Remote is only allowed to poll device status once every so many minutes, so a light turned on in reality may show off for minutes in the Home Remote due to Smart Life’s restrictions. Going through SmartThings solves this problem, too.
