Typical gas cookers are gas stoves and integrated stoves.
Gas stove: stable combustion duration, gas alarm, and linkage between a range hood and a stove.
Integrated stove: A range hood is integrated with a gas stove. More products such as the rice cooker, steam oven, disinfection cabinet, and dishwasher can also be integrated to create a composite product. The integrated stove is a trend-setting product of large kitchen appliances.
Typical cooking appliances include: air fryer (cover), rice cooker (pot), oven, microwave oven, sous vide cooker (pot), stir fryer, and induction cooker.
Generic features: switch, start, cooking mode, working mode, time, temperature, gear, power (fire), pressure, preheat, and keep warm.
Start: Tap Start in the app to run a specific appliance.
Cooking mode: Set the type of dish, such as fish, meat, shrimp, and vegetables.
Working mode: Set the working mode of a device, such as air frying, roasting (convection), baking (convection), grilling (convection), steaming, frying, and stir-frying.

Go to Tuya Developer Platform > Product > Tuya OS > Development, click Create, and then select Standard Category > Kitchen Appliances.
Select the desired product to be developed.
Cooking Mode: Built-in recipes are available, such as chips, drumsticks, shrimp, fish, ribs, meat, and cakes, depending on the device functionality.
Cloud recipe: The ID of the cloud recipe to be sent and executed. A cloud recipe ID is automatically generated after the recipe is added at Tuya Developer Platform > Operation > Cloud Recipe. When the app runs the cloud recipe, a combination of data points (DPs) is sent to the device to run specified tasks. These DPs include Cloud Recipe + Cooking Time, Cooking Temperature, and other running parameters + Start.
Status: An appliance reports its status by using this DP, so the app can accordingly navigate between different panel pages for respective cooking stages. This DP can be customized to support extended device statuses.
Multi-step: Only apply to multi-step recipes managed in Cloud Recipe. This DP supports devices that have multi-stage cooking stages configured, for example, food processors and bread makers. When the app runs a multi-step recipe, all steps in the current recipe are sent to the device in the same command. Then, the device runs tasks step by step until the cooking process is finished.
Currently, all-in-one panels for the following products are generally available: rice cooker, sous vide cooker, high-speed blender, stir fryer, air fryer, food processor, food probe, coffee maker, and electric tea kettle.
As shown in the following figure, go to Device Interaction > Panel Control and click Edit to customize the app panel.

On a device panel, the Mode tab displays a full range of built-in modes. Users can easily modify the temperature, cooking time, and other parameters of a target mode and start the mode.
The Recipe page in the app supports a bunch of recipe features. For example, users can see a banner, browse, create, rate, and share recipes, and then start a device with a single tap.
In the My recipe section, users’ favorite recipes and DIY recipes are collected.
Cloud recipes are classified into recommended recipes and more categories. Users can search and filter recipes to quickly find a desired recipe.
Different cooking statuses are displayed in the app.
Select a module and firmware based on the integration method, download the SDK, and purchase modules for debugging.
Cooking mode, time, and temperature
To display different ranges of time and temperature for respective modes on an all-in-one panel, contact Tuya’s project manager to configure PID information.
Interaction process:
Start: To ensure data consistency, after users tap Start in the app, all parameters of the current mode are sent by default.

Interaction process:
Multi-step cooking: Run the multi-step cooking tasks as specified in Cloud Recipe.
Multi-step protocol of raw type: Make API requests to get multi-step cooking parameters. The DP code is included in the request. The app gets the DP ID and generates the content of the raw type. All content is converted from the decimal format to the hexadecimal format. Protocol format:
0
means to feed ingredients and 1
means to go to the next step.0
means to feed ingredients and 1
means to go to the next step …Example: 00 00 02 06 00 96 09 00 0F 00
. Analytics: The current step is Step 1. In this step, the DP ID is set to 6, temperature to 150, DP ID to 9, time to 15, and next task to feeding ingredients.
The following settings are applied:
dpid 9
for the specific pid
based on dpcode
.dpid 10
for the specific pid
based on dpcode
.00
means to feed ingredients and 01
means to go to the next step or end.In this step, the following cloud-based configurations are supported. For more information, see Product Configuration.
