Why does MySensors setup both a Node device and Temperature device in Vera?
-
As I am beginning my journey with MySensors, I wondered if anyone could explain to me what the design decision was around having two separate devices created in Vera for each sensor? In my case adding a temperature sensor created two devices, a 'Node' device and a 'Temperature' device. I'm just curious to understand why these needed to be created as two separate devices instead of one combined device?
Thanks,
Troy.

The node device contains the information related to the Arduino-node such as battery level, library version and in the case of relaying nodes a clear button for relay information. On vera you cannot modify or add information to the standard devices.
