General

The "General" tab shows the master data of the device and provides the most important management functions.

Device header

The top section shows the device icon and name:

• Icon – Click the icon to change it. A selection window opens with all available symbols. Choose a symbol that best represents the device. For some devices (e.g. OpenWeather) the icon is fixed and cannot be changed.
• Name – Click the name to edit it. The name is used in all lists, in the app, and in automations.
• Last updated / Created – Shows when the device last changed a value and when it was created.

Device information

Depending on the device type, the following fields are shown:

• Zone – Shows the zone (floor) the device belongs to via its room.
• Room – Use the selection list to assign the device to a different room. Rooms are grouped by zones. Devices without a room end up in the Default Room.
• Controller – Only on Management: shows which managed Controller the device belongs to, or (local) for devices of Management itself.
• Platform – The underlying skill platform (e.g. KNX, ZigBee, Z-Wave, Matter, MQTT).
• Category / Type – The device category (Lighting, Thermostats, …) and the specific type. For some devices (e.g. Switch ↔ Lightbulb) you can change the type via the selection list.
• Direction – Only for window coverings: defines whether the cover works horizontally or vertically.
• Manufacturer / Model / Serial number / Version / Firmware – Hardware information, if provided by the skill.
• Link Quality – For wireless devices (ZigBee, Z-Wave), the current connection quality in percent.
• Battery – For battery-powered devices, the current charge level.
• Status – Shows OK, "Device is not reachable", or "Poor connection". For unreachable devices, Last seen also shows the time of the last successful communication.
• Compatibility / Certified by nomos system – Shown for devices from the online library.

Actions

The icon buttons in the device header below the name (the label appears when you point at them):

• Open in nomos system App – Opens the device directly in the embedded app view.
• Log – Jumps to the system log and filters by this device.
• Help / Support – Opens (if available) the manufacturer- or skill-specific help page.
• Edit or Configuration – For KNX, Z-Wave, ZigBee, and Wiser devices: opens the skill-specific configuration page.

The Delete Device button is at the bottom of the page. It removes the device from the system after a confirmation dialog. Which automations and scenes use the device is shown in the Associations section – check it before deleting.

Configuration (Add-ons only)

If the device was added via an Add-on skill, a block with add-on-specific parameters appears here (e.g. Server IP, Port, Username, Password, Active, Debug). Apply changes with "Save" in the bar at the top of the page.

Webhooks (only for supported devices)

Some devices can be updated by external systems via HTTP request. This section shows the webhook URLs (HTTP and HTTPS) that can be entered into the external system. The supported properties are listed below. The clipboard icon copies the URLs.

Settings

Depending on device type, additional options can be enabled here:

• Include in room commands – Only for Lighting, Window Coverings, Thermostats, and Music Players. When a whole room is switched in the nomos app (e.g. all lights off, all blinds up), this device follows. Turned off, it stays as it is; it can still be controlled on its own, in scenes and in automations. Example: the night light strip in the hallway should stay on when the room's lights are switched off.
• Share with Management – Only on a Controller that can be managed by Management. When on, Management takes over the device; when off, it disappears there.

Associations

Shows all objects in the system that use this device:

• Devices – Other devices linked to this one.
• Quick Config – Quick configs that use this device as trigger or action.
• Automations – Automation rules that use this device.
• Scenes – Scenes the device appears in.
• Schedules – Schedules that control this device.
• Cameras – Cameras linked to this device.

The links navigate directly to the respective object. Check this list before deleting a device to avoid accidentally breaking automations or scenes.
