On my Aqara sensors (RTCGQ11LM, connected via MQTT) there is “temperature” and “device temperature”. The values are quite different, and only device temperature is available as an entity.
Thanks. That’s what I thought might be the case, but it’s odd that only the least useful temperature is available as an entity.
Do you know of any way to make the other value available?
The temperature entity shown is actually “device temperature” - I’d renamed it.
According to Zigbee2MQTT documentation this is all functioning normally. I just wondered whether there was any way to basically convert an attribute into an entity, as ambient temperature shows as an attribute only.
One more thing, please. If I wanted to offset the value that I get from the temperature attribute, how would I do that? It seems that the sensor isn’t all that accurate, but I can’t figure out how to adjust the number to be correct.
