If you do not put the smart plug into a 'room' on the app it is considered to be 'unassigned', and the app will have no control over the time that the outlet on the smart plug is on or off. You can now use the plug 'manually' - switch the plug on or off by pressing the button on the front of it. The colour of the button will be red if the plug is on, and clear if it is off.

Please note that if you turn the plug on manually, you must remember that when the hub restarts (which is once a week on a Monday) or if there is a power cut, then the smart plug defaults to the off state. Therefore, please be careful not to plug anything into it which needs to be on all of the time such as a fridge or freezer.

In order to control the timing of the outlet of the smart plug from the app, you first need to add a room to the app to control the smart plug.

Create a room on the app for the Smart Plug

  • Click on the Menu icon in the top-right corner of the app, and select 'Setup'
  • Click on 'Create New Room'
  • Enter the Name of the room (e.g. Office Fan)
  • Select the room type 'ON / OFF'
  • Click 'Ok'

 

Add the Smart plug to the room:

  • Still on the setup page, click on the room to put the smart plug in
  • Click on 'Add A Device'
  • Select the Smart plug you wish to control from the list
    • To identify the smart plug you wish to control, look for the hand written numbered sticker, normally found on the side or back of the device
  • Click 'Ok'

 

To control the smart plug follow this link:
