Setting the scan interval is optional, it is only needed if energy/power values are not updating frequently enough by default. Values less than 10 seconds may cause stability issues.
Setting the 'Manual DPS To Add' is optional, it is only needed if the device doesn't advertise the DPS correctly until the entity has been properly initiailised. This setting can often be avoided by first connecting/initialising the device with the Tuya App, then closing the app and then adding the device in the integration.

This setting can often be avoided by first connecting/initialising the device with the Tuya App, then closing the app and then adding the device in the integration. **Note: Any DPS added using this option will have a -1 value during setup.**
Setting the 'DPIDs to send in RESET command' is optional. It is used when a device doesn't respond to any Tuya commands after a power cycle, but can be connected to (zombie state). This scenario mostly occurs when the device is blocked from accessing the internet. The DPids will vary between devices, but typically "18,19,20" is used. If the wrong entries are added here, then the device may not come out of the zombie state. Typically only sensor DPIDs entered here.

For each entity, the associated DP has to be selected. All the options requiring to select a DP will provide a drop-down menu showing
all the available DPs found on the device (with their current status!!) for easy identification. Each entity type has different options
to be configured. Here is an example for the "switch" entity:

**Note: If your device requires an LocalTuya to send an initialisation value to the entity for it to work, this can be configured (in supported entities) through the 'Passive entity' option. Optionally you can specify the initialisation value to be sent**
