| Item | Research finding |
|---|---|
| Device | Eve Energy (Matter, US) |

| Feature scope | on_off |
Required conditions
- Target Platform Supported Device Type
- Compatible Product Firmware

Setup sequence
- Distinguish Matter from an eight-digit HomeKit code.
- Check whether the intended local, remote or automation use requires a home hub.
- For persistent Thread operation, confirm the supported border-router environment.
- Use Add Accessory in Apple Home and keep the code private.
- For an already paired device, obtain a new sharing code from the existing controller.
If a feature is missing
Check whether the platform exposes that exact endpoint and feature. Basic on/off or lock control does not prove energy data, Apple home key or vendor-only automations.
