Configure the DeviceUpdated 5 months ago

The Vesternet Device Drivers will offer configuration options that are appropriate for each specific type of device in order to get the main product features and functions working.

If you are happy with the default settings after the Device has been added to your system then the Device is "ready-to-use" immediately.

If you do need to change any of the settings then simply open the SmartThings App on your smartphone or tablet. If you're new to the SmartThings App you can read more about it at the SmartThings Getting Started guide.
