I missed your note, so already changed up the names in the Meross app.. Seems like smarthings naming is separate so I think I am ok on that. Re-installed 1.03 and -got stuck on loading GR table -Did not discover all of the devices, so after it stopped, I hit discover again at this time below: -Plug in found several more devices but did not list the outlet Main, only the daughters. -status in AC was wrong again. All devices are off. - If I hit on or off in AC, there is a 15-20 second delay until the ac reflects the on or off. Light does respond quicker. -A dimmer switch reports back as 100% when I turned it on via the smarthings app to 50%. Attached are logs. Version on store is still 1.03 which is what I am running. thanks. Meross_4-20-2025_15024_PM.zip

The Meross names get picked up currently by my Smartthings hub which then reports the names to Alexa so changing Family Room Cans to FR cans will make voice commands with Alexa difficult. let me play with it and see if I can “break” the chain and have different names at the Meross level vs Smartthings

I had deleted the app so I reinstalled it to test the on offs. Never could get past 17 nodes after 20 some minutes. Deleted and reinstalled it again. This time, couldn't get past three nodes. Logs attached. thanks! Meross_4-19-2025_24842_PM.zip Meross_4-19-2025_25956_PM.zip

yes. I think I downloaded the log before I started to play with on off etc. I can redo some on /offs and send you another log.

@someguy The easiest way to get the variable you want from a node server into an email is to go to the PGX plugin and hit the copy symbol next to the variable you want and then past it into the program. For example if I want the barometric pressure of my weather flow plug in, I would click on the copy symbol and it will copy the correct string to paste into an email. I get notifications throughout the day when traveling.. I use pushover vs email. but here is an example of the program and the pushover message that gets sent. House Status when away - [ID 00E2][Parent 0203][Run At Startup] If $Away is 1 And ( Time is 8:30:00AM Or Time is 12:00:00PM Or Time is 5:00:00PM Or Time is 9:00:00PM ) Then Set 'Notification Controller / Service Pushover Other' Send Sys Custom With Params Priority=Normal Content 24 Notification ID (ID=24) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Notification in custom notifications looks like this: Security: ${sys.node.n014_area_1.ST}, ${sys.node.n014_area_1.GV0} Doors: -Front: ${sys.node.ZY010_1.ST} and ${sys.node.n014_zone_1.ST}. -Mud Room: ${sys.node.ZY011_1.ST} and ${sys.node.n014_zone_15.ST}. -Back Grg: ${sys.node.ZY012_1.ST} and ${sys.node.n014_zone_12.ST}. -Mstr Bedrm: ${sys.node.n014_zone_10.ST}. -Slider: ${sys.node.n014_zone_33.ST}. -Screen Porch Entry: ${sys.node.n014_zone_5.ST}. -Screen Porch North: ${sys.node.n014_zone_9.ST}. -Screen Porch South: ${sys.node.n014_zone_4.ST}. -S.

An alternative way to using the virtual switch concept above is to simply replicate part or all of the scene in your If statement: For example if in your scene you have switch 1 @50%, switch 2 @100% and switch 3 @100%, Then put in your If statement the matching values of the scene. Sometimes in a scene I may have just one switch turn on to a very unique value like 98%. Then I only check to see if that one switch is at 98%, which lets me know that scene is on. The drawback to this approach is that you have to make sure you keep the two items "in sync" --> ie 98% in the scene and 98% in the IF statement. Other than that, it's a pretty straightforward and easy way to accomplish the same as a virtual switch.

Getting closer... -Discovery went much faster ~5 minutes -names are still messed up -Most of the devices will not respond in AC -Values of on/ off are incorrect Still lots of errors. Error logs attached. Currently the whole house is off, so all should be at zero below.. (node 20) Meross_4-19-2025_114716_AM.zip

Also the nodes that came in, did not have the correct names.

installed 1.02 Still lots of errors. discovery still very slow as a result. Only found 9 devices. Attached is the log package. thanks! Meross_4-18-2025_14845_PM.zip

Sorry, no that did not work. I had already tried that too, forgot to mention. thanks

try first "quitting" the Alexa app on the phone by swiping up and killing hte app. If that doesn't change the linking ability, try to restart your phone and try it again.

Cant update.. getting the following message. thanks.

Yes. All of my devices are remote not local. thanks! let me know when you want me to try again

@bpwwer Loaded the new plug in. Again took quite a while for discovery ~ 15-20 minutes. Lots of errors. Everything is pointing to "offline" in AC No node for the Controller in AC No grouping of nodes.. they ended up as their names alphabetically --> for testing purposes would be easier if they were grouped under the controller. One item did not come in with its name.. came in as Smart Bulb. Attached are the logs after I hit Discovery. Cheers!! Meross_4-10-2025_121759_PM.zip

@bpwwer just updated the plug in.. will start to test it. THANKS!!
