UPB repeat command if device doesn't ack command

[kenwiens]

The problem

Coming from HCA, I was accustomed to having UPB commands sent repeatedly until the receiving device responded that it had received (acknowledged) the command. This helped if there was noise on the powerline. You could set, by device, the number of retries before throwing an error.

I cannot determine if the UPB integration in HA is doing any actions like this and if so, is it configurable?

I'm getting situations where I send commands to turn on a light, and HA shows the light is on, yet in reality it is still off. I suspect I have a noise issue, but without knowing what the UPB integration is doing, it is hard to determine exactly. (I use upstart to monitor noise).

Right now, my issue is more about documentation - what is the integration doing if it doesn't receive a positive ack from the device?

thanks, Ken
