Version 20230111 - 11-JAN-2023

This release adds support for Self-Healing and discovery using local LAN. This can be combined with the cloud discovery to provide a hybrid solution with all of the advantages of both (good support for sleepy devices, ability to auto-setup devices without using the cloud, and self-healing without the cloud). LAN discovery is always prioritised for self-healing of IP addresses, whereas, cloud is always prioritised. It also fixes a crash with Shelly NG modules in OS 3.2 or earlier.

If you're using LAN discovery, you may want to consider turning off "auto rename" on the drivers. Local LAN discovery may not detect the correct device names. Multicast must also operate correctly on your network for this feature to work correctly (any decent equipment handles multicast without any additional config)

Other Improvements include:

• Self Healing Improvements for ethernet connected Gen 2 devices (Agent) - Thanks Jamie Waite
• Miscellaneous improvements (All)
• Module NG incorrectly listens to thousands of ports in some cases when using Gen 2 modules due to incorrect handling of server status.. Fixed. This bug is believed to have been introduced in 20221017, and mainly affects OS 3.2 or lower, and new systems (Module NG) - Thanks everyone who mentioned this, including Wayne Tabram, Matt Sand and Jason Shinkfield
• Add command to ramp blind by a specific amount (Blind) - Thanks Lukas Sacher
• Add Purge Known Devices to remove all known devices. This is useful if some devices have been removed from the installation and are interfering with AutoSetup (Agent) - Thanks to many people (too numerous to mention)
• Remove checks for whether Shelly drivers are properly installed on controller during Auto-Setup and Traffic Lights. Our One-Click AutoSetup implementation means the drivers are automatically installed as required. These checks now provide invalid information (Agent, Module, ModuleNG) - Thanks Lello De Domenico
• Resolve potential lighting Rate issue (Light V2) - Thanks SnapAV
• Add option to auto-turn on light when setting preset (Light V2) - Thanks Kevin Dew
  

Version 20221017

• This is a major release that fixes a few capabilities and adds a few more 2nd Gen devices
• New Devices supported:
  • H&T Plus (Module NG)
  • Pro 1/2/3 (Module NG)
  • Shelly i4DC (Module NG)
  • Shelly WallDimmer (Module NG) - Requires OS3.3.0 or later (Shelly Light V2 driver is required. Older Light V1 drivers are not supported for walldimmer)
• Fix detection of some 2nd Generation devices (Cloud) - Thanks David Hancock
• Improve detection of Sleepy devices and detect second generation sleepy devices correctly (Cloud) - Thanks David Hancock
• Add Device power and External Power Properties. Used by H&T Plus (Module NG)
• Fix Shelly Motion 2 events. Replicated on my home system. Fixed (Module) - Somebody previously reported this issue (but can'tremember who). Thanks :)
• Improve Variable management system to reduce risk of ID's changing in future if firmware status changes. Please note, whilst this new system ensures the ID of variables won't change, it does not guarantee that variable ID's will be consistent between modules (Module, ModuleNG) - Thanks Chip Burke
• Improve STOP command performance for Uncalibrated Blind (Module) - Thanks Jakub Orlankowicz (Orlankowicz Intelligent Solutions)
• Shelly NG Device Temperatures should use Shelly Thermostat instead of temperature Display Driver, which has limits (Module NG)

Version 20220829

This is yet another major release, which introduces some of the major new changes:

1. Introducing our new One-Click AutoSetup implementation. Driver should be now be faster and easier to setup. This solves 90% of the installation support issues.
2. Huge new Performance improvements. On a test controller, CPU load dropped from regularly high latency and 25%+ CPU load, to negligible latency and CPU. Controller reboot is required for the full speed/latency improvements to take effect.
3. Improvements to RGBW2 white channel handling. Turning on a color channel after power outage no longer turns on the white too, and vice versa. We rewrote the command system to enhance support.
4. Improved Shelly i4 support
5. Lights now use acknowledgement for instant feedback. RGBW2 in particular can now operate reliably on high poll rates of 30+ seconds
6. Shelly Thermostat can now we used instead of the Temperature Display for high-temperature operations which the TemperatureDisplay driver doesn't support
7. Major Backend Troubleshooting and Diagnostics improvements
8. Polling is seperate from the rate of commands sent to the device. This allows for more more fine grained configuration
9. New Generation Documentation

Configuration Changes
There are also 2 major configuration changes which may affect your setup:

1. On old installations with a poll rate of less than 500ms, they will be set to 500ms minimum. This is to prevent the driver from overloading the network with commands. Higher poll rates are recommended
2. The old default for Button Ramp rates used to be limited to 12s.. However, we now correctly use the hold rates in the driver itself. The default is 5s though. If lights are ramping too quickly, increase the time to 12s or more.

Reliable Long Polling Support:

• This release adds reliable Long Polling of Lights. This allows:
• Having extended poll times of 30s-120s instead of 250ms-750ms on large systems, which greatly reduces system and network load without sacrificing UI feedback. On a test system with 12 RGBW2 devices and 250ms poll rate, this lowered the CPU from 20-30% to less than 5% and significantly lower latency of all system devices
• Faster Feedback to users (no need to wait for the next poll)
• With long polling, external commands sent to the device using the Shelly web interface or another control system may not be reflected in some circumstances until the next poll.
• Please note, some devices which send feedback may in some circumstances offer limited long polling support.
• Gen 2 / ModuleNG devices do not need polling (feedback is always instant). This change does not affect them.

Full changes:

• Fix Duplicate Traffic Light (Thermostat)
• Troubleshooting improvements (All)
• Long Ramping of Brightness/Color is supported once again (Light V2)
• Fix crash during OFF command with no ramp rate (Light V2)
• Improved white channel handling of RGBW2 (Light V2)
• Poll Rate is now seperate from the Connection Delay Rate. (Module)
• Fix Effects Regression in Light V2 (Module)
• Maximum Connection Delay rate is now reduced to 5000ms only (Module)
• Add Bulk Update Module Poll Rate to allow fast setting of poll rates (Module, Cloud Agent)
• Stagger polling requests between modules to avoid network / CPU load spikes. This mainly affects large installations
• Fix Light Off Crash in some circumstances (Light V2)
• Add Increase/Decrease Brightness Commands to Light V2 (Light V2) - Thanks Sam Drake @ NextGen
• Toggle Brightness Button Link incorrectly reverts to 100%, not last brightness (Light V2) - Thanks Sam Drake @ NextGen
• Further minor Optimisations for Lighting when feedback changes to avoid some processing (Module)
• We can safely reduce some protection built into our code to potentially reduce overheads during polling. This optimisation has the biggest benefit on less-complex modules. This only affects Gen 1 modules (Module)
• Other Misc Optimisations (All)
• Chowmain's new Documentation system (All)
• Introducing our new One-Click AutoSetup implementation. Driver should be now be faster and easier to setup. This solves 90% of the installation support issues (Module,ModuleNG,Cloud)
• New Low-Level Performance Improvements. Requires controller reboot after upgrade for changes to take effect. On large / overloaded systems, this should improve performance.
• Major Lighting Update. RGBW2 White Channel is now correctly separated from the Color Channels and off. This required an overhaul of our command queue system. (LightV2)
• [Breaking]: The old default for Button Ramp rates used to be limited to 12s.. However, we now correctly use the hold rates. However, the default is 5s (so, some people might find that lights are ramping faster).. If so, revert the ramp rates to 12s
• Default Minimum Ramp rate is now 5s (Light V2)
• Update Diagnostics and Debugging (All)
• Shelly i4 Button events / bindings not working correctly (Module NG)
• Improve input/button detection for inputs in button mode (don't use state, but id)

Version 20220602 [STABLE]

This is a major release which introduces a few major new features, huge performance improvements and various fixes, including:

• Brand New V2 Lighting Driver (chowmain_shelly_light_v2):

  • This new driver REQUIRES OS 3.3.0 or later

  • ColorWheel and White Temperature lighting Support.

  • Extras Support for Effects on compatible lights (mainly RGBW2)

  • Support for Color / CCT Presets

  • Replaces Light Relay, Dimmer, Dimmer with Temp, RGB and RGBW drivers. Greater flexibility, and less drivers required

  • To upgrade, you must be running OS 3.3 or later. Remove existing lighting drivers, and use auto-setup in the modules.

• Support for new Shelly NG Blinds ("Covers").

  • Uses the existing Blind driver in combination with the Module NG driver

  • Supports Position control and toggle control

  • Current Hardware which supports this driver is Shelly Plus 2PM

• Add ShellyNG (Gen 2) Authentication Support (ModuleNG) - Thanks Martyn Jepson

• Add Blind Calibration Action to enable calibration with the web interface. (Blind,Module,ModuleNG)

  • Load must be connected to blind to allow calibration

  • It it not recommended to recalibrate blinds remotely, in the event objects are in the way, they may cause damage or if calibration fails and manual intervention is required

• Fix Thermostat and LightV2 Locale issues which mainly present in locales like Germany (Thermostat) - Thanks Hermann Schwieren

• Fix Regression with Pre-OS3.3.0 releases and Display Diagnostics (Module, NG Module, cloud) - Thanks Hermann Schwieren

• Manage risk of bad Status data. Crashes should no longer break all feedback for additional data hasn't been processed yet (Module,ModuleNG)

• Add Calibration Status Feedback to Blind (Blind, Module, ModuleNG)

• Add ShellyNG (Gen 2) Authentication Support (ModuleNG) - Thanks Martyn Jepson

• Track whether TRV Valve is open or closed using HVAC States. (Module) - Thanks David Hancock

  • For those who are using Valve Opened / Closed Actions directly within the module, URL Module actions are not overriden by our driver, so can still be used

Performance Improvements

• Eliminate CPU Spikes when using Cloud and a large system during sync operations. Previously, depending on the size of the system, large CPU spikes were observed every few minutes which have been eliminated now. (All) - Thanks David Hancock

  • On our test setup, 30% CPU spikes every 5mins were entirely eliminated, and CPU max was within 1-6% controller wide at all time. (All)

• Reduce operations performed on project modifications and driver upgrades (All)

  • As a side effect, this reduces load during driver upgrades

• Further reduce communications required between modules and cloud. (All)

• Optimise selected properties to reduce communications with Composer and improve remote Composer Connections. (ModuleNG,Module)

• Introduce Action to Bulk Update Module Connection Delay Rate from cloud (Module,Cloud)

  • This only affects 1st Gen modules. 2nd gen modules do not require polling and are always instantaneous

  • This action is particularly useful on large systems, with overloaded controllers which may require a large number of module properties to be modified.

  • Slowing down the polling reduces the response rate but can reduce Controller CPU usage.

  • Please note, the experience of some devices may be degraded with high poll rates

• Only Fetch Announcements on Refresh Navigators, instead of all system events (Module, ModuleNG)

• New Default Poll rate is now 750ms instead of 500ms. This only affects 1st Gen Shelly Drivers, and the value may be increased in the future (based on further testing). Existing drivers will NOT have their poll rates changed automatically (Module) - Thanks RyanE

• Extend maximum poll rate to 10 seconds. Please note, 10sec poll rate is NOT recommended for most shelly devices (Module) - Thanks RyanE

20220224 [STABLE]

PLEASE NOTE:

• A Project Backup is recommended before installing. Downgrading from this version may not operate correctly with existing Lighting Scenes.
• Auto-Rename is turned off by default on existing driver installations due to changes in the auto-renaming mechanism which may impact driver naming differently to previous versions (channel names are now utilised).
• Ensure all updates from the package are installed and updated.

This is a MAJOR new Release which adds some huge new improvements including:

1. New Thermostat Driver (TRV Radiator Valve support).
   • This Driver adds support for Shelly's new TRV Radiator Valves
   • Support for Position/Level Control, and Automatic Temperature holds (please note, Shelly's native Web interface may require a refresh to show the switch between levels and temperature control. In Control4 however, our driver will display this switch accurately and automatically)
   • Calibration support (if required)
   • Schedule / Preset Support.
2. Fine grained control over Auto-Renaming.
   • Channel names are now utilised where possible
   • Customise whether (selected) 3rd party drivers are also renamed (Temperature Displays primarily)
   • Customise driver name source: Module Only, Cloud, or both.
   • Greater level of naming control in connected shelly submodules
   • Auto-naming works more predictably. However, all name changes should now be reflected instantly (Shelly NG, module only), or within 1 minute (others)

4. Performance should be improved when using Cloud driver (mainly affects large systems)
   • Communications have been improved between modules to prevent more redundant communications
5. Ability to set Poll Rate on Module driver
   • By default, Module normally polls every 250ms. The default is now 500ms to enhance compatibility with smaller overloaded systems. CA-10's or systems with more grunt (or small systems with less modules) can ramp this up to higher speeds for greater responsiveness
   • Please note, this does NOT affect Shelly NG Drivers (Shelly NG utilises communication mechanism which is instantaneous)
6. Preparation of the Lighting drivers for potential future hardware
7. Updated Documentation
8. Improved Blind/Curtain Performance

A full list of enhancements can be seen in the Beta's changelogs below.
