Aqara TVOC -> Conbee II -> No TVOC sensor

Hardware
1

I just added a TVOC sensor and besides the temperature and humidity I don’t see a sensor for the actual TVOC value. I am using Home Assistant OS on a Raspberry Pi 3 together with the Conbee II stick.

I might have to update the firmware, but enabling OTAU on Deconz, going to the VNC application, selecting the sensor and hitting “query” results in nothing. In Phoscon the air quality is still reported as null. (This is also probably the reason no sensor is created in HA.)

My fear is that I need to purchase an Aqara hub just so I can upgrade the sensors firmware. Is this true? Has anyone else has better luck?

Turns out I had to update my Conbee II firmware from within Phoscon. After upgrading the firmware, I now have a TVOC sensor in HA :partying_face: .
