Get spoken to respond with temp (brightness) >100

Featured Replies

Posted

I have a Z-Wave multisensor at the driveway, I put temp and humidity in variables and expose in Portal as lights. I can ask voice assistant "what is driveway temperature" and get response "driveway temperature is set to (temp) brightness". Not optimal, but effective. Only problem is recently temps have exceeded 100 and brightness tops out at 100. Any way to get reports for temp >100? Only thing I can think of is to subtract 100 from temp if > 100, then it would report 2 if temp is 102. Any other ideas?

Thanks,

Mike

Implemented my workaround and heard driveway temperature is set to 5 percent brightness yesterday and the sensor is in the shade!

@bmercier If possible, would be nice if portal supported temperature and humidity directly.

I had challenges with temperature data as well. 

Not sure how helpful this is but I used polyglot for my multi-sensor (MQTT) and it reports Temp and Humidity data properly in the ISY.  My challenge was to get Celsius to work which was a pita.

Thanks. I get the data in ISY just fine, but portlal doesn't support temperature or humidity so I have to fake it with brightness. It worked OK until we started getting above 100. The issue is being able to ask voice assistant for temperature when > 100. I was waiting for someone to suggest using Celsius, but then would have the opposite problem with freezing temps.

Got it, your hack is good.  Portal supports contacts so the only other way would be to trigger 1/0 on a variable after 100.  Not ideal...

The it seems the obvious answer is to use Celsius in the summer and Fahrenheit in the winter.  ?

To my knowledge, humidity is not supported, and temperature is not supported unless we expose the device as a temperature sensor, which currently is not implemented on ISY Portal, except for thermostats.

Thanks for confirming. Being able to expose a variable as temperature would be a nice future enhancement.
