Hi. I have been running Hass.io with the tellstick add-on for some time now. It’s been working like a charm until about a month ago when a neighbour of mine apparently got a temperature sensor with the same ID as one of my sensors. This has resulted in HA creating two enteties with the entity_id of sensor.soverom_temperature and sensor.soverom_temperature_2 with different temperatures. The problem is that it is comletly random which one of the two sensors that end up with the _2 at the end of the entity_id when ever I restart HA giving the fits my bedroom thermostat.
The last update from the neighbour’s sensor was a while ago.
(If he has had the same problem as me with his weather station I assume he has removed the sensor as it is clearly no longer 18 degrees outside .)
Is there a way to make the tellstick add-on forget old sensors? I have tried to read up on the documentation of the add-on but I have only found how to add sensors and not remove old ones. I’ve set named_only : true in the sensor platform but this does not help in this case as the sensors have the same id.
type=sensor protocol=oregon model=F824 id=12 temperature=18.4 humidity=42 time=2018-11-20 12:29:02 age=14
type=sensor protocol=mandolyn model=temperaturehumidity id=12 temperature=3.5 humidity=76 time=2018-10-26 12:13:30 age=2164546
Any suggestions will be welcome. Thanks
