The following parameters are applicable ONLY to the ZEN05 800LR
There were hardware changes made between the versions and these parameters do not apply to the 700 series ZEN05.
Watt Report Threshold
Parameter 9: Choose when the plug will report Watts to your hub. Value 1 = 1 Watt change.
Choose how you want your Smart Plug to report power consumption to your hub. The number entered as value corresponds to the number of Watts the appliance needs to go over for the change to be reported. So if 5W are entered by default, the Smart Plug will report any change in power usage over 5W (whether it's at least 5W more or 5W less compared to the previous report).
Values: 0 – trigger disabled; 1 – 100 Default: 5.
Size: 1 byte dec
Watt Report Frequency
Parameter 10: Decide how often the plug will report Watt data to the hub (in minute intervals). The number entered as value corresponds to the number of minutes. So if 5 is entered by default, the Smart Plug will report power consumption (Wattage) every 5 minutes.
Values: 1 – 65535. Default: 5 minutes.
Size: 4 bytes dec
Amp Report Threshold
Parameter 11: Choose when the plug will report Amps to your hub.
The number entered as value corresponds to the number of Amps the appliance needs to go over for the change to be reported. Value 1 equals 0.1 A and value 50 equals 5 A. So if value 1 is entered by default, the Smart Plug will report any change in electrical current over 0.1 Amps (whether it's at least 0.1 A more or 0.1 A less compared to the previous report).
Values: 0 – trigger disabled; 1 – 50 (1 = 0.1A and 50 = 5A). Default: 1 (0.1A).
Size: 1 byte dec
kWh Report Threshold
Parameter 12: Choose when the plug will report kWh to your hub.
The number entered as value corresponds to the number of kWh the appliance needs to go over for the change to be reported. Value 1 equals 0.01 kWh and value 200 equals 2 kWh. So if value 1 is entered by default, the Smart Plug will report any change in energy use over 0.01 kWh (whether it's at least 0.01 kWh more or 0.01 kWh less compared to the previous report).
Values: 0 – trigger disabled; 1 – 200 (1 = 0.01 kWh and 200 = 2kWh) Default: 1 (0.01 kWh).

Disable Watt Reports
Parameter 13: Disable or enable power wattage reports sent from the plug.
No power wattage reports from the device connected to the plug will be sent back to the hub if power wattage monitoring is disabled. Use this option to minimize the amount of reports you want the receive from the smart plug.
Values: 0 – Watt reports enabled; 1 – Watt reports disabled. Default: 0.

Disable Amp Reports
Parameter 14: Disable or enable electrical current reports sent from the plug.
No electrical current reports from the device connected to the plug will be sent back to the hub if electrical current monitoring is disabled. Use this option to minimize the amount of reports you want the receive from the smart plug.
Values: 0 – Amp reports enabled; 1 – Amp reports disabled. Default: 0.
Size: 1 byte dec
Amp Report Frequency
Parameter 15: Decide how often the plug will report Amp data to the hub (in minute intervals). The number entered as a value corresponds to the number of minutes. So if 60 is entered, the Plug will report electrical current values (Amperes) every 60 minutes.
Values: 1 – 65535 Minutes. Default: 60.
Size: 4 byte dec
Volt Report Frequency
Parameter 16: Decide how often the plug will report Volt data to the hub (in minute intervals). The number entered as a value corresponds to the number of minutes. So if 60 is entered, the Plug will report Voltage values (Volts) every 60 minutes.
Values: 0 – voltage reports disabled; 1 - 65535. Default: 60.
