Is it possible to add locks? I want to lock and unlock my car 🙂 ---

I’m pretty sure the duplicated entries are created by your MQTT integration. Please check your entity list in HA. The same effect existe when you delete and add (same name) an Homey device. Then you get a duplicated entry in HA. The entitiey are named equal, but the newer one has a suffix “\_1” at the entity id. That’s why I delete the HA entry before doing a sync with MQTT Hub. So thenew device get created in HA with the same entity id. ---

The lock capability is useable on Compound device: YAML Example: ```auto homey: my_car: name: Car name capabilities: lock: lock_entity_id ``` But haven’t tried for myself. ---

I added a short description how to use the dim slider for input number entities: > **[GitHub - RonnyWinkler/homeassistant.homey: Homey compound device component](https://github.com/RonnyWinkler/homeassistant.homey#use-a-slider-for-number-input-entities)** > > Homey compound device component. Contribute to RonnyWinkler/homeassistant.homey development by creating an account on GitHub. You can add a dim capability in a compound device to change input number entities. In addition you need a converter to adjust the valid value rage between HA anh Homey. ---

Thanks for this great app! It will be nice if there is an option to select more than one device when adding new HA devices to Homey… ---

> [@Marcel\_Visser](#): > > select more than one device Hi, this is a default behaviour of the Athom pairing dialog. It’s only possible to activate single selection or multi selection with ALL entries preselected. So if you have 500 HA entities and want to add 5, you have to deselect 495 😂 And the new version allows to add individual icons. So you perhaps want only to add 1 device in a step to do this. ---

Aaaaah understood! But if you install te app for the first time, you have to add all 500 devices one by one. Maybe it is possible to add an option in the settings to choose? So, select all of them, or just one? ---

Allright. Strange thing is that is is working on the Deconz app by example; ![Screenshot_20221107-105403_Homey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/0/3034268778e593f28cfee8e4f8c62882efeb8427.jpeg) ---

You really want to add 500 entities (where 400 are really useless) into one zone? And then? Perhaps the Deconz app has made an own view or copied/modified the Athom one. There are other apps with icon selection (VD, MQTT hub…) where you can select one device, select icon and add device. Most usecase will be to one by one into different zones/rooms. ---

So just a better approach of calculating power consumption like then energy settings for Homey devices. ![grafik](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/6/66985442e21f6577ab074d120d75558cb2f52211.png) Then it’s very custom and no functionality of lights itself. I would suggest to add the lights as light and all power sensors into one compound device. Would that be ok for you? ---

> [@RonnyW](#): > > So just a better approach of calculating power consumption like then energy settings for Homey devices. For me PowerCalc makes more accurate calculations than Homey energy settings. The second reason is the using app “Power by the Hour” - with this app not possible use Homey energy settings. ---

And creating a compound with your entities dies not work using measure\_power capability? Or just adding as sensor? What capability is used for? Depending on the entity unit the app should take the matcching capability. Then you should have a device with measure\_power that shoul be recogniced by PbtH. ---

How do i add 2 (or more) device trackers?

Hi, please format the YAML, so we can check the spaces ![grafik](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/b/1/b116f5018191beb696be1d409aef532b2a062e7d.png) I think you need a “my\_device\_tracker2:” before the second name. That defines a second compound with its capability list. Btw…I’m thinking about adding device\_tracker as Homey device to get an easy to use presence device like SmartPresence. So just try and learn a bit with teh compounds. But don’t create compley flows yet 😉 ---

The yaml is/was correctly formatted, i did a configuration check before restart… But i think i wait until it is integrated as device, i intended to add this as you describe for a better presence detection as well. HA has a option to read my router and it detects perfectly when devices are present or not.
