RosCard Statistics Card Guide

Configure the RosCard Statistics Card to monitor and track device status directly from your Astrion Remote. Get real-time counts of active lights, switches, and climate devices in any zone or room.

Last updated: July 2026 Requires: RosCard installed Light, Switch, Climate monitoring

Overview

The RosCard Statistics Card provides a dedicated monitoring interface for tracking device status on your Astrion Remote. Unlike other RosCard cards that control devices, the Statistics Card is designed to monitor and display the state of multiple devices in a single view.

The Statistics Card supports tracking of Lights, Switches, and Climate devices, displaying real-time counts of active devices in any zone or room. It's perfect for getting a quick overview of your smart home's status.

💡 Tip: The Statistics Card is read-only — it displays device states but does not allow toggling. For device control, use the dedicated Light Card, Switch Card, or Climate Card.
