AK Smart Device plugin converts dumb devices to smart self-contained devices – so each device knows how to react to other devices changes. The aim of the plugin was to reduce use of convoluted HS event system and make creating basic automation an easy process. It doesn't completely eliminate HS event system (of course) – you still are free to use it for things AK Smart Device can't do (yet).
AK Smart Device has a lot of configuration options which allows easily create complex setups without using a single event.
And by chaining multiple devices complexity of the system is reduced which helps improve system maintainability and simplify troubleshooting.
Note: before uninstalling the plugin make sure that all devices controlled by the plugin have all timer/trigger/linked device disabled. See https://forums.homeseer.com/forum/ul...76#post1290476
