Switch informations

[Motspassants26 (Mathieu Gilles)]

Hello,

I can’t figure out how a switch works.
Let me explain :
I can turn a lamp on and off with Home Remote Designer, but when the lamp is turned on from alexa or some other way I don’t have the “On” status in Home Remote Designer
I apologize for these neophyte questions
cordially

What switch are you using? Some devices use polling which are slow to update status… how long did you wait?

I think it is me who does not know how to do it because I have sonoff relays, meross sockets, konyks contactors, Tuya smart Life switches etc and I do not see how to reassemble the states of my devices if they are activated from the different applications (EweLink, alexa, Tahoma etc.)
thank you for your comeback

SmartLife / Tuya Switch Status feedback question

The Tuya integration only polls your devices from the cloud once every 10 minutes. The chances of you seeing status data that’s out-of-sync is very high. The Tuya API service is probably the most restrictive compared to all other Home Remote integrations. If you want something faster you could possibly look at upgrading to something else. Sonoff devices are pretty cheap to purchase. You’ll see pretty much real time status updates from them. They can be accessed both locally & remotely and they…

If you want quicker updates, link Tuya to SmartThings then SmartThings to Home Remote.

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.

I linked SmartLife with Smartthings to solve the device status delay in THR. It works fine but there is a problem: all devices (switches) in my Smartthings account appear with the name “Main” in THR (does not load the names given in Smartthings) making it extremely difficult to correctly identify each device in the THR.

This has been fixed in 4.4.5.0
