Have you/can you restart the device extensions plugin?

I’ve had some issues when setting up new devices, or changing them after creation, which has required a restart - haven’t tracked down cause yet but it works after restart.

That's generally the solution. The DE plugin has a few little quirks and that is one of them that it may not do real-time conversion until restarting the plugin because that's when it gets everything into memory. I have a new version that works to fix that but haven't had time to work it out.

I can tell you that I have 20 or so of these C to F converters (Fibaro doesn't report F so this is how I get it) and they do work perfectly fine but restarting the plugin to prime the pump is likely required.
