Adding a Centralite smart plug? (UK)

Hi, could anybody please tell me how to connect this to smartthings?

Thanks in advance
Andy

I can’t read the model number in that picture, but I believe it’s probably the following:

In which case if it’s that, or any of several similar models, you should be able to add it as a generic zigbee on/off switch. I’m not sure about getting the energy monitoring features, though, if it has those.

BEGIN BY DOING A FACTORY RESET

Unplug any devices from the module and unplug from the wall. Now hold the on/off button while plugging it back into the wall. Hold the button until the status LED turns on.

The on/off button is that button on the side in your picture.

It should then be at ready to add.

Which version of the smartthings app are you using? The 2021 android version that was just released this month? Or the previous 2018 version?

Thanks for the info, Android fone has latest App and galaxy tab 2018 app

Morning JD,
I tried everything on the data sheet and the generis switch idea but no joy.
When i press the on/off/pr button it illuminates blue press again it goes off.Does not matter how long i press it for it will not flash?

You need to hold the button pressed as you plug it in (assuming the socket is switched on) then release it. This resets it for inclusion.

Hi Andy
Thanks but ive tried that and no joy lol, I have 2 of them and its the same with both. They were both working but then i changed broadband and now not working.

I have one of these, and I had the same problem. But I got it working…

make sure its turned off.
Hold finger over button and keep it held down.
Plug it in, and after a few seconds the light will come on (you’ll feel the device click once)
Release the button then and the light will flash a couple of times, which was when my Hub picked it up.
Hold the button down too long and the button will click again and the light will still be on.

The secret is in the two “on” clicks that occur.

turn off
hold down
plug in
1st click (light comes on) —> release now!!!
2nd click (light flickers but stays on). – too late!!

@AndyStaf
I guess you havent figured out since these are in my possesion for 2 years now, no joy :smiley:
