Brief Introduction

• Thank you for purchasing the Ecowitt AC1100 Smart Plug.
• The Ecowitt AC1100 is a brand-new smart plug that is compatible with the Ecowitt IoT ecosystem.
• When paired with the Ecowitt IoT gateway, it allows remote control of power on/off, energy consumption tracking, remote alarms, and more. Additionally, it features a smart mode, enabling home appliance automation based on preset conditions.
• Please note that the AC1100 needs to be used in conjunction with the Ecowitt IoT gateway and can’t be used as a standalone product.
• The following User Manual provides step-by-step instructions for installation and operation.
• Use this manual to become familiar with your professional Smart plug and save it for future reference.

Configuration Process

• Before configuring the AC1100, you need to set up an IoT-enabled gateway.
• The  IoT gateway configuration brief introduction will be covered in Section 1.1, followed by the configuration and usage of the AC1100 with the IoT gateway in Section 1.2.

IoT Gateway Pairing Instructions Compatible IoT Gateway models

• Prepare an IOT-supported gateway that has been added to Ecowitt, ensuring the frequency matches.
• The compatible models are listed in the table below.

App Operation Modes

• The operation mode includes Button mode, Manual mode, Plan mode, and Smart mode.
• Each mode trigger will be interrupted by each other, and the operation generated by the most recent trigger will take effect.
• For example, AC1100 is on schedule per the plan mode.
• At this time, a condition under the smart mode is met, which triggers the AC1100 to switch off immediately.
• When the next scheduled time arrives, AC1100 will be switched on again.

Manual Mode

• Execute immediately after setting the power consumption mode on APP.

Initial statement

In the initial state, clicking the switch button allows you to choose between ‘By Duration’ and ‘Always On.’ In the ‘By Duration’ mode, you can also select the on and off states for the cycle mode. Cycle Mode ON & OFF range: 5seconds~3600seconds

Running statement

When in a running state, click the switch button to stop running directly. The switch button turns gray.

Button Mode

Short Press

• Execute Quick Run or terminate the current program.
• Quick Run refers to the execution actions set in the last Manual Mode.

Plan Mode

After successfully setting up the plan, it will be saved on the AC1100. Even if the AC1100 is disconnected from the gateway, it can still execute the plan as scheduled.

1. Select “Plan” to enter the plan editing interface.
2. Use the switch icon on the right to control the activation or deactivation of the plan.
3. Click the edit icon to access the editing interface.
4. In the editing interface, you can set the plan’s start time, and total duration, and choose whether to enable the cycle mode.

Smart Mode

• This feature enables the control of the AC1100 according to preprogrammed conditions.

Important Notes:

• APP side operation for the setup of MANUAL(ON/OFF), PLAN, and SMART operations involves communication with Ecowitt’s IOT server.
• Once commands are downloaded, the hub independently executes them when triggered by local sensor data.
• Upon completion, the hub sends execution results to the ecowitt IOT server for logging.
• This ensures that even without a server connection, planned command execution proceeds as intended.

A DESIRED FEATURE ON OUR WISHING LIST:

• If you have multiple hubs, sensor data from other hubs can serve as a triggering source. However, this functionality implicitly requires that all hubs are registered under the same user account and connected to the server as a bridge.
• While this is technically feasible, the cross-hub triggering feature has not been implemented in the current design.
• We plan to introduce support for this feature through Over-The-Air (OTA) upgrades to your hub firmware.
• Please stay tuned for announcements regarding the addition of this feature in future updates.

How to add an automation task

• The following introduces the content of each section when setting up an automation task.

Add a trigger

• The conditions can be selected to execute the task when the supported parameters in the gateway are higher than the specified value/lower than the specified value/equal to a certain state.
• You can also set the task to be executed when multiple trigger conditions are satisfied at the same time or when multiple conditions are satisfied arbitrarily (either one or the other).

Add an action

The following actions can be set.

• a) Set the status of AC1100 as on or off
• b) Set the duration
• c) Execute the Quick Run setting
• d) Activate of deactivate the plan
• e) Skip the plan for a set duration

How to manage automation tasks

Smart Mode log

An operation example

• Here, we provide an example.
• When the AC1100 is connected to the home air purification system, you can set it to automatically turn on when the PM2.5 value exceeds the preset 40ug/m3.

Log Introduction

• Click Log to enter the log diary interface.
• On this interface, you can view all power consumption log diaries and also check alert information.

Log Diary

• Each log diary will involve the operation mode, Run Time, Consumption, and Real-time Power.

Alerts Introduction

• Alerts are also involved in the log Interface. Here are descriptions of the following four alert types.

1. Communication is unstable!
   • Smart mode will be disabled. Please adjust the position of the AC1100 or WiFi hub.
2. Anomaly Alert!
   • Device self-check unstable.
   • Please reconfigure the network before use.
3. Leakage Alert!
   • When is off-state and there’s still power output, it’s assumed as a Leakage fault.
4. Overload Alert!
   • When the AC voltage exceeds 270V or the current surpasses 18A, will forcibly get switched off and provide a notification in the app.
