What does the little "house" symbol by attributes mean? Fewer triggers available for these attributes?


#1

I recently set up another Aeon home energy monitor on 2 individual circuits, reading the HVAC and the dishwasher. I thought I’d set up something like I did with my dryer monitor to remind me when the dishwasher is done, but I’m having trouble because I want to use powerTwo to drive my “power stays less than or equal to” condition. If I select power by itself, it’s fine, but when I look at powerTwo it has a little house symbol next to it, and it cuts down the list of available conditions considerably.

I couldn’t find documentation on what that symbol means, and what makes it different than the other readings.

Those are non-standard attributes that unique to the device handler. Sometimes you’ll have less comparison options if the handler outputs values in string, you can convert them to integer or decimal with the WC built in functions.
