Fibaro FGS-223 declared power consumption?

[MDC 77]

Hello,

Can we have this parameter on Fibaro FGS-223?

I plan to use fibaro in a big scale building, and some lights and powered devices, swimming pool pumps are 2000w and i plan to use contactor for that, but how to declare power, module will show only contactor power 2-10w

Hello,

 

It is not necessary for FGS-223 as it reports the power consumption. Older switches did not report the power consumption so you could declare it.

Indeed, if I use contactor Fibaro will measure only consumption of contractor, I need an option to add manual power consumption.

thanks

Hello,

 

Sorry, I did not get the idea the first time.

It is not possible to do that with FGS-223. FGS-223 reports the actual power consumption so a user cannot declare the power consumption.

Thank you,

maybe a future update can include this function.

I know few persons that use Fibaro relay this way. This option will be a great function.

thanks

Hello,

 

It will not be introduced for FGS-223. FGS-222 has this function, FGS-223 is a different device that does not offer declaring of power consumption.
