Fibaro FGS-223 declared power consumption?


MDC

Question

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.
