Title: Who controls the routines for a smart plug
Post by: Jrboddie on December 29, 2018, 10:14:55 am
My new Amazon smart plug missed a routine lamp-off last night.  Where do the timed commands come from?  Does the plug have a clock and memory?  Does one (or both) Echo Dot send the command at the designated time? Or does the command come from the Amazon server?

I was able to command the switch off with a voice command through one of the Echo Dots with no problem.

In the meantime, I added another routine to the schedule to try another off command 5 minutes after the first one.
