 Once the plugin is installed, it will show the number of devices detected on the one-wire bus. You can then click on the properties box, and you will be presented with a tab called "Add Devices". If there are any devices that have not been added as Vera devices, they will be listed here. It's worth understanding how this (currently!) works. In the case of the EDS-ENV range of environmental sensors, many sensors are available on a single device (e.g. temperature, pressure, humidity, dewpoint, and a control relay). You will be presented with a list of the possible devices, and you can select how you want these mapped into Vera devices. It's also possible to select "Ignore", in which case no device will be created. It's important to understand that (currently) once any sensors have been added to Vera from a physical on-wire device, they will not be listed in this window again. So - make sure you add all the variables you want at the beginning!
 
-=== Energy Monitoring ===
-Some of the sensor options have "+ Energy". If you select this type, then the plugin will also set the Vera energy variables so that the energy monitoring system is updated when the sensor changes. The OW-Sensor plugin uses a variable "DeviceWatts" in the ADVANCED tab to set this - set it to the number of watts that is being consumed when the sensor is active.

 Once you've selected all the sensors you want added, click the "Add" button and the sensors will be created. It will take some time before the data is actually updated within the Vera device, this is because the plugin performs some averaging to limit the amount of noise on the data. Sensors are typically provided with a single decimal place output (e.g. 15.2 degC, or 45.1% humidity), so this is done to avoid unnecessary data fluctuations.
