I bought a Popp Z-Weather wind sensor (z-wave) and it works fine now for half a year.
I’m not experiencing as many rotations of “id” but I can’t say I am free of those either. Sporadically I will see a change in the “id”, for no reason. It is weird because along with the wind sensor I got a temperature sensor, and it has been performing very reliably, unlike the wind sensor.
One other thing to note is that I really can’t be sure if the wind sensor is picking up any solar generated power because you just plug the cable and there is no indication of whether it is working or not. A bit annoying to be honest.
not sure I follow what you suggest. I don’t have tellstick but a rfxtrx dongle.
I think the ID jumping is a HA thing.
Had the same and moved over to connect RFXTRX to node red and have node red post the Data to MQTT. In HA i now have MQTT sensors for it. Stable for months.
I have a different view on this. I have the Oregon stand-alone console and when HA loses visibility of one device, so does the Oregon console too.
Also, I have an Oregon temperature sensor and it has been working very solidly since day 1.
If I could decide that the oregon 1984 is the wind meter instead of defining it with the ID the problem would be solved. Like below
sensor:
- platform: tellstick
temperature_scale: “°C”
datatype_mask: 127
only_named:- id: 12
name: Utomhus - id: 154
name: Vardagsrum - id: 170
name: Sovrum 1 - id: 39
name: Sovrum 2 - id: 11
name: Overvaning - id: 13
name: Krypgrund
protocol: mandolyn
model: temperaturehumidity
- model: 1984
name: Vind
protocol: oregon
- id: 12
I dont know if it is the battery lever that causes the ID to change all I know is that I have plenty of other temperaturesensors and they all work like designed and even when they get low on battery I dont see this behaviour, instead they stop sending updates, feels more logical. So I dont know, I havent had the time to think about it but I guess I’ll return it. It only disturbs me thet the device decides to work as it should ever now and then and when it does it works for about a month or so
Hi all,
is there an integration for the popp device? Or Popp devices in general?
With best regards
