Problems with Plugwise Software
Posted: Tue Apr 21, 2009 11:11 pm
Hi All,
I recently bought some plugs and I am really enjoying the overall solution.
However there are some enoyances especially in the source software.
1. I had some issues with discovering all my plugs. (I did need to reset all my pligs) but during the reset I encountered the following bugs in source
a. Settingss -> Add Plugs -> You add your plug ID (5 digits)
Next (System decovers the Stick and the Circle +)
Next (System decovers the other Circle)
...
In case that you are inpatient....
....
Previous
What you will see is that the plugid is now listed twice in the list.
...
you can continue that and each time the plugId will be added.
At the end it was not clear to me that I needed to wait until they all turned green.... maybe a progress bar would make sense to tell us that the discovery is in progress
2. In my case my calendar in the scheduling is one day off.
Today it is Tuesday 21 but in the shedule it is shown as Wednessday. I have no real explenation why this is happening....
3. I had some issues with the data that need to be retrieved from the plugs. Its still not clear for me when the correct data in the source software.... I just leave the source software running for a while and then switch between different view. I think it needs to be clearer when the views are updated with the correct data and information.
I will list some more when I find how to reproduce them because I managed to crash the source several times already when I was playing with the setup of appliances.
