Home Assistant Sensor

I sort of get.

Home assistant sensor.

Sensors with missing unit of measurement are showing as discrete values. None sets the initial state for automations on or off. Initial state boolean optional default. If messages in this state topic are published with retain flag the sensor will receive an instant update with last known value.

Otherwise the initial state will be undefined. This template contains no entities that will trigger an update so we add in a reference to the sensor date sensor from the time date which will update once a day. They are able to display information which are provides by home assistant directly are gathered from web services and of course physical devices. The following device classes.

For each sensor present entities will be created in numbers equal to the items present below him. Home assistant offers a service to reload the core configuration while home assistant is running. When discovery is enabled tasmota will send all the sensors information to home assistant. Announced to home assistant as mqtt sensor.

This mqtt sensor platform uses the mqtt message payload as the sensor value. Home assistant currently supports a wide range of sensors. An am2301 sensor will generate one entity for temperature one for humidity and one for dew point. To use your mqtt sensor in your installation add the following to your configuration yaml file.

The way these sensors are displayed in the frontend can be modified in the customize section. This allows you to change your customize section and see your changes.
