White Series On/Off Bug Enhancement (VTM30-SN)

Thanks Eric, may I know when this update will be approved and available in Apple Home app directly?

I believe the HomeKit profile has expired, any way to get a new one?

I will get one and let you know.

Just picked up a few of these and I remember there being talk about temp not working and humidity being inaccurate but they came with 1.0.3 installed and both temp and humidity are showing and are very similar to the Aqara sensors spread in the rooms.

What changed? This just a fluke?

I haven’t tracked the changes too much since release

Both generate a number however the readings (temperature particularly) are effected by the heat from the unit itself.

I believe Inovelli removed temperature measurement from the feature list prior to launch (though the feature was left in the code). Humidity is still an ā€œadvertised featureā€ however and seems to work pretty well (though I don’t use it for anything).

Hope this helps.

Is there a way to tweak Local Timer mode to not allow an always-on state? It is hard to train my kids to push it more than once, and despite knowing it could be automated, it feels like a feature that might be hidden or desirable. Like rewriting a list of timer seconds or something.

Local Timer mode keeps resetting to disabled after a power outage/airgap. This appears to be a bug.

Firmware: 1.0.3

This is probably a long shot, but it’d be pretty nice if there were a way to expose whether a button press came from the primary switch or an aux switch. I’m adding automations to control groups of lights with double/triple taps of the switch, and one of the things that I want is to be able to use the stair lights to control lighting on the opposite stairs (i.e. double tap off at the bottom of the stairs to turn off the upstairs lights), but AFAIK there’s currently no way to distinguish a double tap at the main switch from a double tap at the auxiliary switch.

Pure guess, but I would suspect not. However, a workaround thought… I believe these switches would work using another ā€œfull smartā€ switch as the secondary? At least the product page sounds so. In which case, would that help you do the configuration you want?
Might depend if you’re controlling smart or dumb switches, and what hub (Home Assistant?) you’ve got going. Kind of a cool idea for the application.

For my setup, I’ve got a few switches that are controlling lights in other rooms, not connected to the loads the physical switch is carrying. But I’m 100% smart bulb mode on them all, so basically it’s all just logical not electrical switching at that point.
