First off welcome mate. Hubitat or HE for short is a great platform I am sure you'll love it! In relation to your question yes that's easily changed. See details here. Hubitat® Dashboard - Hubitat Documentation
I personally use Sharptools as my dashboard and just have a mobile shortcut to the dashboard as an app but it's a personal preference so maybe check that out too. FYI Sharptools integrates via an inbuilt HE app. Sharptools website details is https://sharptools.io/
Doh! Thanks for that, wasn't expecting it to be in the dashboard settings!
Love to use a dashboard like sharptools but I have a thing about subscription based apps. Don't mind paying for an app like actiontiles if they decide to support HE though.
GHM1 is fine, GHM2 keeps falling off the HE.
They are not grouped in Google Home and I can see both in the HE. Rebooting the GHM doesn't always bring it back to the HE, had to drop the GHM and rescan to get it back.
They sit next to each other on the bench and respond from the google end.
Also need an opinion on power adapters, had a lovely glitch today where we had to reset the gateway router then needed to reset a POS printer, if I got a cheap wifi power switch are they ok to leave on and use for remote reboot type operations ?
Plenty of options in this space but i use a Tp-link energy meter to monitor my washing machine and advise when it's finished and that works a treat with this community driver. No reason why you couldn't use the guys other driver for the cheaper HS100 e.g. the non energy version. You can easily get them from Bunnings, Officeworks etc.
@jchurch Thankyou - think I might add a bunch of plugs in the next phase of the rollout so I can remote hard reboot network gear and the F#%## POS printers. Can probably pay for them in the energy savings.
I was thinking of using the h110s when amazon sales them again, just concerned over the size. Pondering the Aeotec Smart Switch as well, but the price for them is... well.... ouch.
The size of those is pretty good - I hadn’t really looked at how small they are! Much better than the HS-110. Smarthome.com.au has them on sale for $82 at the moment.
what are you guys using for presence (sure ive asked this before) - I currently just have the L360 app by BPT - but it dips in and out of useful and when I use L360 + HE iOS I get multiple jumps in and out of the fence within minutes of each other.
Its the one thing I have left to crack and cant. I have the fence set to 300m - but any larger it would clip my kids school and my mrs spends ages there so the house would always be disarmed with HSM.
I mainly use the iphone-wifi-presence-sensor which works really well but if your wifi on your phone turns off it could cause an issue. I also have tried the hubitat app but the geolocation never works unless I open the app and can't work out why.
Wifi presence. Via Iphone presence, although we dont use Iphones, all android here. It works flawlessly.
I have a rule that when my Hubitat presence sensor (HE app) hits the home area, it triggers the iphone presence sensor to run every 10 seconds. So within 10 seconds of me hitting the home wifi (which is turned on by tasker when I approach home), I'm recorded as home. Doors open, lights come on, etc.
I'm not recorded as away until both wifi and Hubitat are away. I am intruiged by the Hubitat youtube thing last night, which I have not watched yet, saying presence was bad for unlocking doors. I'll get to it tonight......
