Device Status

A single device's current values and switches at a glance

The Device Status widget shows the current state of a single device — which values it's currently reporting, which switches are on or off, and a few fixed details like its firmware version and WiFi IP address. The card title automatically shows that device's own name.

A device status widget with operating mode, switches and other values

  • Values render according to their type: selection lists (e.g. "operating mode") as a dropdown, switches as a toggle, numbers with -/+ buttons.
  • Some rows can be expanded with the arrow next to them, revealing further, related values underneath.
  • Not every device shows the same rows - only the values defined for that particular device type appear here.

Changing values directly

For devices you have write access to, you can change dropdowns and switches directly in this widget - the change is sent to the device as a command right away. Number fields additionally need confirming (the checkmark button, or Enter) so that every single click on -/+ doesn't trigger its own command. If a change fails, the field briefly jumps back to its last known value.

Without write access to a device, the widget shows the same values but doesn't let you edit them - a plain reflection of its last reported state.
