Popp flow stop 2 cannot be controlled?

Hi,

Popp flow stop 2 is paired to Smartthings (official integration) and exposed to SharpTools. For some reason it just shows status (open/close) but can’t be controlled via Sharptools dashboard.
Sharptools shows that device has these commands available: ping, close, poll, refresh, open.
Any ideas what causes issue? Flow stop is working normally and can be controlled from Smartthings and from actiontiles dashboard.

Can you share a screenshot of what you are seeing on your dashboard?

It sounds like it’s rendering as a Valve Tile in which case the ‘Open’ and ‘Close’ commands are small links in the bottom left corner of the tile. There’s currently a Feature Request out to make the Valve Tiles tap to toggle like light switches which you can vote on here:

It would be great if valve tiles acted more like the Switch tile and allowed you to tap anywhere on the tile to toggle the state. – My Dome water valve shutoff has been working for some time through Hubitat rules and dashboards and as a ST valve tile. Today it was totally unresponsive in ST but continued to work in Hubitat. I found that it will now only work as a switch tile in ST. The…

Voted!! That was it. Those small open and close links work. Hope that this request goes through too.

There are some other approaches you could take in the meantime. For example, you could create a rule in the SharpTools Rule Engine and expose it in your dashboard:

Sure thing - thanks for the example use case! In the meantime, you can use the SharpTools Rule Engine to create a quick tile for closing the valve. You can create a rule with just the action you want (no triggers): [image] Then add that Rule to your dashboard: (it won’t reflect the valve state, but it’s helpful if you want a bigger touch target or want to run a set of actions): [image] [image]
