Hi, I’ve only been working with THR for about a week now and learned today that some of the repetitive things I’ve been doing could probably have been simplified by using templates and device tiles. However, I can’t figure out how to achieve what I’m after.
I use Homeseer as my primary hub for all my devices. Plugins for many of my Homeseer devices end up creating multiple separate devices in THR for each “capability” - so for example a thermostat might create separate devices for current temp, system mode (heat/cool/off), system status (idle, heating, cooling), etc. From what I can tell, if I wanted to create a thermostat tile that I could reuse for each thermostat, I’d need all of the data elements I want to include on that tile to reside within a single THR device.
The three approaches I have considered (but haven’t had much success with) are:
- Create a THR Virtual Device
- Create a THR plugin
- Create a virtual device in Homeseer
I feel like I’m probably making this harder than it needs to be. Is there a better/easier way to accomplish what I’m trying to do here?
