I am planning on roadtesting this product in the near future. It's a simple device, but with WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity and an energy consumption sensor, the product stands out from others.
I primarily wanted to get some ideas on how you would roadtest it. Do you only need the product or is there anything else that should be included in the kit?
Let me give you a few basic facts about the product:
-
The product can be operated with the following load: 85-305VAC @47-63Hz.
-
Standalone device with WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity
-
Measurement of energy data and integrated relay switch to generate additional value on the power input
-
Easy integration of smart IoT functionality into existing devices
-
Connected to the Internet via WiFi 802.11b/g/n and has an integrated energy meter senso
-
Data analysis and processing via SCHURTER Dashboard or SCHURTER App
-
Relay switchable via WiFi (Cloud)
-
Integrated energy live measurement with update rate up to 60 sec.
-
Low standby Energy consumption (<0.5W)

While I am interested to see how you would set up the product for a product, I have been hashing out some ideas with others. These ideas include:
1. Power a load via the DT31
2. Verify Energy Measurement
3. Ease of use of the Phone App
4. Identify use cases for devices and measurements.
How would you test this unit? I'd appreciate your thoughts in the comments below.
