You can try replacing the power supply if you have something laying around because it sounds like the unit is not fully booting.

Multiples work fine together. I have 2 of the 2's, one 3 and the car charger.

I believe there is a ping node server, I'm not at home and I never used it but it might be worth a try to see if it covers your needs.

If you right click on the program you can pick run then and the program should execute, if that works then there is probably something wrong with your If part of the program. If all seems fine I would try recreating the program.

Under Devices and Scenes the 3 dots at the top pick Controller Settings then there is Program and Variable Settings where you can activate request status to have it load.

I'm pleased to announce the plugin does support switching to auxiliary heat.

@Guy Lavoiethanks for the information on the Venstar. I ordered the Ecobee and I think it will fill my needs.

I'm considering getting the Ecobee Smart Thermostat Premium because of its ability to switch to auxiliary heat based on outside temperature. In case that does not work as I expect I was curious if the plugin had the ability to switch the Thermostat to auxiliary heat mode? I appreciate any feedback anybody could supply about the auxiliary heat function of the Ecobee.

Yesterday their app said they were down for service/improvements.

Well if someone finds this topic in a search I went the route of setting up a bluetooth proxy through ESPhome and got my integration working that needed bluetooth.

When on commands work reliably and off commands do not you need to start looking at the loads that are being turned on for noise issues.

Does anyone know how to pass eisy's Bluetooth functionality on to HA?

You need to select a device in the scene then configure what happens with the other device when it is activated.

You can not control the secondary buttons directly so the fix is to put the button in a scene then you can control the scene in your program.

On eisy 5 button presses reboots the device and 6 button presses shuts down the unit where the light will turn red and you can safely unplug the unit or press the button again to restart.
