Beta feedback Ezlo Plus

The Beta Test guide is in the first post of this tread and you should have also received it in your mail.

You must use the VeraMobile app for iOS or Android. Did you try the steps from the guide?

As @korttoma said, we sent the guide with the email that had the tracking number for the package, and it is also added in this post.

@Ioana my Ezlo Plus is stil stuck on firmware version 1.0.22 is there something you can do to trig the update process?
I have tried the power cycle several times and also disconnecting the ethernet cable for 15s+.

Sure, Iā€™m writing to you in DM now to investigate whatā€™s happening.

hehe, RTFM. :slight_smile:

Iā€™m in now, it did however enter the controller list with a vera edge picture, not a Atomā€¦

So, currently it can only be accessed through mobile?
I have some stuff i want to try, but i hate tinkering with settings on my phoneā€¦ Let me know when a web GUI is ready. :slight_smile:

you can control it all using HTTP if you like tinkering.

how? http commands?

Iā€™m thinking the same gui as when connecting the veras, either local or via serverā€¦

There is no Web GUI yet.

Any ETA when we might see one?

Here is the documentation for using the http connection API http_module_API.pdf (40.0 KB)

Hi Loana
can you give us examples of http requests please?
how to build the request?
http: // IP-Ezlo / ā€¦

Hi @Pitt13
We are doing implementation of http in two steps client and server.
Client already implemented and available in build 1.0.25 and API description available as well.
Now we are working on implemenation of server side and will provide API description with examples as soon as its ready.

Also very important thing in progress now is possibility to share resources between plugins. It will be available in next build.

Did you have a chance to check client ?

Hi @Oleh
no I have not yet received the ezloplus box but I anticipate with the reading of the guides and API. For the moment I donā€™t see how to build the http request, thatā€™s why Iā€™m asking for examples to see the possibilities.

I received my EzloPlus card yesterday. I am domiciled in France.
I did some tests:
I associated EzloPlus with the VeraMobile Android application already installed on my smartphone, following the procedure, manual entry of serial number and MAC address.
The association was made quickly.
I created a piece very quickly.
I added a Neo CoolCam device Door / window sensors NAS-DS01Z: the operation was done very quickly, compared to my VeraEdge and my VeraPlus.
For the moment I find that the application is fluid, and responds quickly.
I will continue my tests with other sensors and actuators to test the scenes.
What I miss is a WEB interface, and access to all the data on a device.
A satisfactory first approach ā€¦ we will see more ā€¦
I also noticed that I access the Ezlo dashboard configurator.

Ok I recieved my unit today and iā€™m not able to test anything. I tried to include Centralite thermostat and recieved this error

After that i tried to include zwave sensor Aeotec same error

Also the local connection is not working

Ezlo VOI is working ok i can control my vera plus devices via amazon.

For the moment that is what i managed to test

Ok the local connection is not working because i use iOS the other problems are because the controller is rebooting every minute.

I changed the charger because my board came without any cable or charger and now i tried it with Ipad charger and is stuck on booting application partition green / blue slow waving

After changing 4 chargers, ipad, iphone, fire tablet and echo dot and 3 cables i got it working :slight_smile: paired the Centralite thermostat without problems. Will do some more testing during the weekend.

So far i have included:
Centralite Pearl Thermostat
Centralite Temperature Sensor
Centralite Water Sensor
Centralite Micro Motion Sensor

I have those extra laying around because the zigbee radio on vera is too unreliable to be used in smart home :slight_smile: seems that Ezlo is working better than vera as far as zigbee will see in couple of days because vera was loosing connection after couple of days.

Pairing was seamless, state of the motion sensor is reacting faster than vera.

In order to test more devices i will wait for somebody to find a way to send command from vera to ezlo so i can transfer some switches from vera to ezlo and make a virtual switch in vera so i can keep my automations complete.

Received Ezlo Plus today. Installed via ethernet connection to router as documented. Devices and scenes work, but without Luup capabilities and/or plugin such as VirtualSwitch, unit (like Atom v1) has pretty limited functionally. Anybody have an idea, for example, how one would create scene to turn on a hallway light for five minutes after a garage sensor triggers at night? Will continue testing ā€“ waiting to try local mode once supported with iOS.

1- Device Triggers: You can use any device as a trigger.
if Switch is on, then do thisā€¦

If Garage Sensor is triggeredā€¦
Turn hallway light onā€¦

Then
If Hallway light on (using the hallway light as a ā€œdevice triggerā€)
turn off after 5 min delay

Also: latest version of IOS does have local mode supported. (btw: Atom V1 can do the scene you describe as well)





As you can see from these screenshots. You can do exactly what you are describing in the current scene flow. You just have to use ā€œAn Activation Eventā€ eg: using a Device as Trigger for an eventā€¦any deviceā€¦(You can activate an event either using a ā€œDeviceā€ or ā€œDate and Timeā€)
