How to Update the status of a Device

Some devices like the Binary Power switch of Aeolabs are not updating automatically their status in UI.

I mean to see the real status of the device on UI Expert I need to update it manualy (pushing the key 'update').
Is there any way to do it automatically?

Thanks

Polling or set up Report group if the device supports it

You mean to use "Poll Sensor Periodically" whitin Automation?

I cannot see it in the list of device.

How I could set up Report Group?

Set the config parameter 80 to value 2, telling the device to send basic CC Report. The default value is 0, so no reports are sent.

Found it.
In Expert Command I set value 2 to Parameter 80 and .....
... it works.

I can now see the updated status on all UIs.

Many thanks sdh.
Last question: where I can found the explanation of all parameter configuration? I mean the document where you extract the picture you posted above.
Thanks again

Just write to support at Aeon Labs and they will send them. I have them for Micro Smart Energy Switch 2E, Micro Smart Energy Illuminator 2E and 4-in1 Multi Sensor. I can forward the mail to you if you want.
