Help request: enable ‘tempreporting’ #737

Open tayloroni93 opened 5 months ago

tayloroni93 commented 5 months ago

I am rather new to this. I successfully added my Govee heater to HomeBridge and the Home app. It works! But on HomeBridge I am getting a constant message that says “you should enable ‘temp reporting’ in the config for this device.” I am not sure what that is referring to. Everything seems to work fine despite this. Advice?

I was in the samd boat but just figured it out. Go into Homebridge and the config settings for your Govee. Click on the "My Devices" tab and then copy to your clipboard the "Govee Device ID" that is listed there. Then click back to Settings, and add a new Heater Device. Give it the same name you used originally. Paste in the Govee Device ID from your clipboard. Click the checkbox to enable Temperature Reporting. Then scroll down, save your settings. And restart Homebridge. A couple of minutes later, check your Home app and see the nice improvement to your heater fan interface!
