The Leakage Sensors feature in the Smart PIERRE app allows users to manage and customize the sensor settings with ease. Users can edit the Leakage sensor from both the Dashboard and the I/O list from the Menu.
Key benefits of the Leakage sensor include:
- Status Visibility:
- The status of the Leakage sensor is displayed directly on the Dashboard with a green dot for Active and a gray dot for Not Active status.
2. Long Press for Advanced Options:
A long press on the sensor icon provides access to the Edit and Used In tabs for further customization. The Edit tab enables users to update the name and picture of the sensor, while the Used In tab shows the list of automations where the sensor is integrated.
