Management of other major consumers

Hi Anselm, I was able to add the first Shelly to the controller without any problems. But here I would like to be able to give the device another name (z.B. pool circulation pump). However, there is a problem in the Home Assistant section. The selection window cannot currently be opened under Shyft actuators, so I didn't get anywhere here. Next, I tried to integrate another Shelly switch. This was also created, but with the second device I could only choose between deactivating the plug and the connected device. The “Switch on an unconnected device” option was no longer displayed. Can you please take a look at that. Thank you so much

Stefan Stemmler: Hi Stefan,
It should work via Home Assistant. I'll send you a quick help again in person.
You can only integrate 1 “other device” at a time. It is possible to have the Shelly switch on directly, but we would have to program that first.
We have the ability to individually rename the integrations in the backlog - thanks for the feedback.

Feel free to try out the feature: 1. Add a “Other device” to the configuration page.
- Set the power of the device and the electricity price threshold. Thanks to our optimization approach, we can calculate the price threshold from your personal, hourly mix of grid, PV and battery power. If you z.B only want your device to be powered by PV power, set the price threshold just above the PV feed-in fee.
- In the Home Assistant section, you can store the appropriate Home Assistant webhook URLs for the actuators to send the on/off commands to the device.
