InkBird IBBQ-4T V2

Hardware

I am having issues getting the temperatures from my IBBQ-4T V2 into Hassio. I am using LocalTuya to get the data from my device into hassio.

This is what I get:
Hassio debuger from LocalTuya gives me:
"107": "1j0AAShBAAEIPgABNj0AAQ=="

So as per the link you provided from InkBirds tech:
I get the following from DP107: 1j0AAShBAAEIPgABNj0AAQ==
Converted to HEX: d6 3d 00 01 28 41 00 01 08 3e 00 01 36 3d 00 01

Which gives us:

Probe 1:

  • d6 3d 00 01 reversed → 01003dd6
  • converted to decimal: 16793046
  • 16793046/100,000 = 167.93 F which is 75 C

Probe 2:

  • 28 41 00 01 reversed → 01004128
  • converted to decimal: 16793896
  • 16793896/100,000 = 167.93 F which is 75 C

Probe 3:

  • 08 3e 00 01 reversed → 01003e08
  • converted to decimal: 16793096
  • 16793096/100,000 = 167.93 F which is 75 C

Probe 4:

  • 36 3d 00 01 reversed → 01003d36
  • converted to decimal: 16792886
  • 16792886/100,000 = 167.92 F which is 75 C

This matched all my probes inserted all at once into a cup of hot water (+/- 1C).

So in conclusion, I believe something is wrong with the conversion inside the yaml file. Since we can see that Tuya_Local debug log does indeed get the correct numbers from dp107 but hassio is not outputing them correctly.

In the yaml this is done:

    - id: 107
      type: base64
      name: sensor
      class: measurement
      optional: true
      mapping:
        - mask: FFFF000000000000
          endianness: little
          scale: 100
      unit: F

From my understanding:

  • mask: FFFF000000000000 it takes the first 4 HEX
  • endianness: little reverse the bytes
  • scale: 100 divide by 100

Code seems correct but for some reason Probe1 and Probe3 are not giving the correct measurement in hassio.

From what I’ve read, mine is a IBBQ-4T V2 which merges all temps into one DP (DP107). The info derived from my unit seems to match that claim. The yaml I am talking about comes from Tuya-Local. If you go into custom_components\tuya_local\devices folder it’s in there. That is the yaml file Tuya_Local uses to define my device. What I can’t figure out is why it manages to perfectly show Probe2 and Probe4 but messes up on Probe1 and Probe3 even though the code is exactly the same.

Can’t figure out how to decode this. This is what I got:

I got this to work. Here is the template you can use in your configuration.yaml. This assumes your temp sensor is named temp_2:

template:
  - sensor:
      - name: "BBQ Probe 1 Temperature"
        unit_of_measurement: "°F"
        state: >
          {% set raw_temp = states('sensor.temp_2') | base64_decode(none) | unpack('h', 0) %}
          {% if raw_temp / 100.0 != -0.1 %}
            {{ raw_temp / 100.0 }}
          {% else %}
            {{ none }}
          {% endif %}
          
      - name: "BBQ Probe 2 Temperature"
        unit_of_measurement: "°F"
        state: >
          {% set raw_temp = states('sensor.temp_2') | base64_decode(none) | unpack('h', 4) %}
          {% if raw_temp / 100.0 != -0.1 %}
            {{ raw_temp / 100.0 }}
          {% else %}
            {{ none }}
          {% endif %}
          
      - name: "BBQ Probe 3 Temperature"
        unit_of_measurement: "°F"
        state: >
          {% set raw_temp = states('sensor.temp_2') | base64_decode(none) | unpack('h', 8) %}
          {% if raw_temp / 100.0 != -0.1 %}
            {{ raw_temp / 100.0 }}
          {% else %}
            {{ none }}
          {% endif %}
          
      - name: "BBQ Probe 4 Temperature"
        unit_of_measurement: "°F"
        state: >
          {% set raw_temp = states('sensor.temp_2') | base64_decode(none) | unpack('h', 12) %}
          {% if raw_temp / 100.0 != -0.1 %}
            {{ raw_temp / 100.0 }}
          {% else %}
            {{ none }}
          {% endif %}
