Multiple sensors home assistant



  • Hello everyone,

    I've succesfully created a node which will send it's battery status, temperature and doorstate (reedswitch) to home-assistant. However, in the home-assistant dashboard both the child 1.1 (Door) and child 1.2 (Temperature) show temperature see pictures below:

    0_1491337831850_Capture1.PNG

    0_1491337903581_Capture2.PNG

    My question is it possible to show only the relevant data per child sensor, so sensor 1.1 only show doorstate and battery and sensor 1.2 shows only temperature and battery?

    Thanks in advance.



  • I guess you tested different children config, thus got child ids mixed. IMO it needs to either delete this node in mysensors.json or delete the file itself to force homeassistant to refresh this node with all children.



  • Thanks for your response. I did that. I've disconnected my node and then deleted my persistence file (when i don't disconnect my node the persistence file comes back after deletion?). Next, i've rebooted my pi and reconnected my node. When this is done i'll get the output shown in my post above.



  • Can you verify your sketch? Maybe you registered several children with the same ID?



  • I've verified that. In my sketch i've one node id and two child id's. One for the door and the other for the temperature sensor. The battery status is send using the interal message of mysensors.

    Please post your sketch.



  • I've programmed the sketch in C++ so i've made classes of the temperature, door and battery sensor. I shall post the cpp files only to keep this post short. Every class and the main includes the config.h were the defines are located. Thanks in advance.

    In the temperature class, when you send in the new temperature, you set the sensor to 1. That means you connect the message with child 1, which is the door child. Remove that part of that line, and you should be good.



  • @martinhjelmare

    Thank you. I'll try this tonight when i'll get home and report back if it works.



  • @martinhjelmare
    This was indeed the problem. Thank you for your help.
