I have flashed my esp 8266 and have a dht11 connected
everything is working on the board with wifi
when i check the yaml file it shows temperature every 10 seconds
but it is not showing up in my dashboard?
see attached images
you can see its logging temp and humidity but i cannot see the temperature in my dashboard or add it
I have no entity for the sensor?
its definitely connected, i uploaded initially by connecting esp to my tinker board
and now it is working wirelessly but still nothing in dashboard
no temp or humidity gauges?
Beside a dht11 is the poorest choice available to “measure” temperatures did you even bother to read the “getting started” guide on esphome.io?
I have followed the tutorial from ESPhome…
Yes I have read the tutorial
I am looking for solutions here
I have now watched 5-6 videos but all are much older versions of Hass
Just reflashed the board
set static ip addresses outside the range of my routers dhcp address range
still see temps and humidity in logs but no entity
I think you misunderstand
I have installed ESPhome on my server (tinkerboard)
I have set static IP for tinkerboard and Esp board (and both ping)
I have loaded yaml file to tinkerboard via serial with it connected to tinkerboard
i can view logs with it via wireless or upload changes to yaml wireless and it spits out the temps in terminal window
but still i cannot add it as it has no entity
i realise I must be doing something stupid but cannot see it
currently i have 4 dht22 connected to a pi-zero logging temps to a google sheets
That is a headache to setup and if google goes offline or my internet drops the python script crashes and no easy way to restart it…
this hass seems a much better solution… if i can get the sensor(s) to show up in dashboard
