Multichannel sensor and Domoticz
Posted: 27 Apr 2019 11:08
Hello, first I would like to thank you for having created the Z-Uno platform, it is a clever combination of Arduino and Z-Wave 
I have developed a pollution sensor, which has 4 channels ;
Using the OpenZWave control panel of Domoticz I can see all values, with quick update when refreshed (the switch is just for testing):
So far only the Temperature & Relative Humidity are visible and correctly updated as Domoticz devices :
I have read in several threads about the missing support of Multichannel sensors in Domoticz, however I think there is a way to modify the existing ZUno.xml description file to make the missing channels appear as devices in Domoticz, do you think it is possible ?
If not, what alternative method could I use to get the values of the 4 channels ? I was thinking about the OpenZWave JSON API maybe ?
For information under Jeedom and Z-Way servers (which are (*) Jeedom seems to be also using OpenZWave) all channels are visible and usable normally.
Best Regards,
Benoît.

- Temperature : length of 1 byte ranging from -40 to +125 °C
- Relative Humidity : length of 1 byte ranging from 0 to 100 %
- PM10 concentration : length of two bytes ranging from 0 to 1000 µg/m3
- PM2.5 concentration : length of two bytes ranging from 0 to 1000 µg/m3
