4 The Home Control Assistant
When HCA sees the “Bath Lights On” link being transmitted it “knows” that the load has been
turned on and at what level.
Current Power Graph
The current power graph appears as:
The display pane fills to show the graph. Each device or room shows as a bar representing the
current power usage in watts. The list on the left shows the data in tabular form.
There are several important items to note about the current power graph.
Before you can display the graph it must be configured. This is described in the next section.
The graph is limited to 48 bars
Instead of showing the current wattage, you can have the graph show the current cost of the
power. In the ribbon is a checkbox that toggles between showing percentage and cost. The
cost per watt hour is defined in the setup and is described in the next section.
Each bar can represent a single device or a room. As described in the chapter on Rooms, any
device that contributes to the state of a room includes its power usage to the bar for the room.
