Temp Sensor- Show temp in Indigo

Hi

Anyone know how to get the temp to show in the Indigo device interface.

The Temp is showing in the details but just odd it doesn't show up.

Any thoughts would be useful - the other 6 Oregon sensors show up fine.

Not a critical problem just odd.

Re: Temp Sensor- Show temp in Indigo

Is this the RFXCOM module or native Indigo device?

The author needs to set which of the states is the display state; given its a Tenperature Sensor Device Type, it would be common sense to use the temperature state as the display state.

Re: Temp Sensor- Show temp in Indigo

The issue is that the temp sensor in the plugin also has a humidity property.

So the Plugin does not know which one to pick. You need to select that in device edit. That should be done when you create the device.

Ok not getting this.

It is setup exactly like the other identical sensor (well appear identical)

I suspect I need to update the RFXCOM device

Re: Temp Sensor- Show temp in Indigo

Looks like a plugin issue.

I have updated to the latest version 2.1.16.

It totally ignores the Show in Sensor value - currently set to Temperature with Display = Temp

The actual display is always shown as 0 regardless of the actual temperature.

Nothing I can do :-(

Re: Temp Sensor- Show temp in Indigo

It might be that your device uses old props. Try to
Change id of existing device to eg 999
create a new device with correct id
Edit new device and set correct prop
to show in status column.

If this does not work you can switch back.
