Electrical outlets in PIERRE Partner app

The Electrical Outlets in the PIERRE Partner app allow users to easily manage and automate their power outlets, providing full control over power distribution within the smart home system.

Key Features:

1. Adding a New Electrical Outlet:

• To add an Electrical Outlet, first select the Controller where the outlet will be added by tapping on it. Navigate to the Outputs tab and tap the Add button. Choose the Electrical Outlet type from the list and fill out the form with necessary details such as Name, Role, Group, Pin, and a picture for the outlet's statuses (On/Off). 
•  Users can enable or disable the Slide to Confirm feature to prevent accidental actions, requiring confirmation before turning the outlet On or Off. The form also includes fields for the Identifier, linking the outlet to the electrical project, and a Timeout setting, which controls how long the outlet will remain in auto mode. To complete the setup, tap Submit or Save.

2. Editing an Electrical Outlet:

• To edit an existing outlet, select the Controller where the outlet is located, navigate to the Outputs tab, and choose the desired outlet from the list. The form allows you to edit fields such as Name, Role, Group, Pin, pictures for both statuses, the Slide to Confirm feature, the Identifier, Hide Activity (which hides I/O activity from the Activity tab), and the Timeout. Confirm changes by tapping Submit or Done, or delete the outlet by selecting the Delete button.

3. Automation Tab:

• In addition to editing, the Automation Tab allows users to create custom automations for the Electrical Outlet. You can set triggers, such as turning the outlet On or Off based on specific conditions like time, presence detection, or other events in the system.

4. Automated Responses:

• Electrical outlets can be automated to respond to specific triggers, such as turning Off appliances when no one is present or activating based on a preset schedule, offering energy efficiency and convenience.

5. Seamless Integration:

• The outlets integrate seamlessly with the broader PIERRE smart home system, interacting with other devices such as sensors and timers to optimize power management and improve overall home efficiency.

By adding and automating Electrical Outlets, users can enhance energy efficiency, reduce manual intervention, and create a fully responsive smart home environment.
