Disable Plug on/off button in the app?

Apps & Clients

Hello,

I have an Aqara Smart Plug that I’m only using to measure the electrical consumption of a Heat Pump and send it to Smartthings Energy.

Is there a way on the widget to disable the on/off button?

The Heat Pump has wifi so I can control it with the mobile (not with Smartthings) and I want to avoid anyone on the house clicking this button by mistake. Maybe it is possible to do this with a different driver, however I would like to avoid this because it probably won’t work with Smartthings Energy, which is what made me use it in the first place.

It’s a possibility, although it still interrupts power on the Pump and that is what I was hoping to avoid. I’ll use it as a fallback.

Thanks

You would have to modify the presentation in the profile of the driver to do that.

Do you have info on where to start learning about stuff like that? Thanks

You do have the option of giving the Location members control only access and removing the device from the list they can control.

Or you can get them to use ‘Manage devices’ to hide the device from themselves.

Both rather assume that the members don’t need any access to the device at all.
