Removing the temp sensor on Air purifier #250

Closed Trippersgarage closed 2 years ago

Trippersgarage commented 2 years ago

Hi Merdok.

Perhaps a dumb question with an obvious solution but is it possible to remove the temperature readout from a zhimi.airpurifier.mb3? Basically, I do not want the purifier to report the temp to homekit.

Can't seem to figure out how to remove just the temp reading.

Thank you!

Currently is not possible. But why would you like to do that? I mean if a air purifier has an temperature sensor then it will be shown. On air purifiers with native homekit support it is also not possible to remove that as far as i know...

Ah ok. The reason I asked is because I've always found the temp sensor slightly off and have a new, more accurate sensor in the room. But it seems like HomeKit will use both sensors and reports a "range" temperature. If not possible, its fine, but yeah, that's the issue I'm seeing.

Thank you!
