If you have a Genius Room Sensor that is not being used in a zone to control heating, you can use it to control the Smart Plugs. The Genius Hub system is primarily a heating control system, so there can be a delay of a number of seconds before the Smart Plug responds (about 2 - 30 seconds generally), this is acceptable for heating but note that this may not be acceptable for lighting.
Create a new zone on the app which is a 'On / Off' type of zone
Go to the Zone Setup and assign the Genius Smart Plug and Genius Room Sensor
Set the 'Heating Trigger On After' to 0 minutes
Set the 'Heating Trigger Off After' to as long as you want the Smart Plug to stay on for
You cannot assign the Genius Room Sensor to the new room if it is already assigned to a room, but you can share the attributes (channels) of it into a second room if you wish. To assign the 'Occupancy' of a Room Sensor into another room, see this article about how to 'Assign a channel' which is at the bottom of the Adding New Devices page. |
