@Giamma,
If you have doubts about what the device is doing, you can see more if you install the DTH with the simulator on the device you want to use.
You can see in the debug log what the device is doing and adjust it to your liking. I like to learn what the dth does and how the device responds, I calculate temperature, battery and reporting times and you can also see errors and why, which you do not see in the app.

Have you ever used the simulator?
Do you need information on how to use it?

125

No, I never used the simulator …

Yes, please, if it’s no trouble …

@Giamma,
There is a small tutorial in the IDE documentation, but with little information.

  1. Open my device Handler in IDE
  2. Open the DTH you want to install.
  3. If you make any changes to the DTH you must always save and I advise you to also publish for yourself.
  4. tap on simulator. Act right will open.
  5. choose location and press set location
  6. choose the device where you want to install it and press install
  7. If installed properly, the device icon and control buttons will appear. If not appears, click save and simulator again.
  8. Close the app and reopen it. The device will already have the dth installed as a draft.
  9. In simulator, click configure. You will see in the log the response of the device. If it does not respond, it has not been configured. press again
  10. You can click on refresh to read the temperature, humidity and battery data. You will not see this data in the app.
  11. Heat or cool the device and you will see how and when it responds and compares what you see in the app.
  12. If you need to, you can change things in the DTH, nothing will break:
    12.1 click on uninstall.
    12.2 change what you need in the dth. Note the changes made in order to control and restore dth
    12.3 save changes
    12.4 reinstall it and click configure so that the changes reach the device.
  13. When you unistall simulator DTH, device restore the previos dth versión installed but still last configuration done on simulator.

play without fear, that nothing is going to break

you will tell us!

I tried with DH for Virtual button but don’t work, nothing happens …

It’s not a problem, I try again in future, thank for availability …

129

In the virtual Device not works.
You must install in your true Device

Like this ?

131

Yes, just that …

132

weird, then it must be some sort of region thing :confused:

133

Can anyone please advise, whether the SNZB-01 (“wireless switch”) is running as LOCAL? Many thanks in advance.

134

Hello, anyone has luck in get Sonoff sensors to run as Local, other than the contact sensor ? I really wish that the motion and temperature runs locally.

Thanks in advance.

135

The motion sensors run perfectly fine locally.

136

The temp humidity sensor runs local using the SmartSence temp/humidity sensor dth

137

Using which DTH? The default DTH runs in the cloud.

Same thing, I’m using the DTH in this thread but it runs on Cloud.

140

The answer you seek is closer than you think.

141

Can you show how did you do it ?
Thanks

142

Just edit the device, change the type to the official “SmartSence Motion”, as I mentioned on this thread back in October…

Smartsense motion DTH has temperature capability which the Sonoff sensor doesn’t support.

144

Great, doesn’t mean the dth doesn’t work. Still runs local. I have 6 of them, if they were cloud based I would of thrown them out months ago.
