Good evening,
I integrated a new window contact sensor from Homepilot into my smart home today. I was wondering why my automations weren't working like the others until I realized that the new sensor had been added as a binary.sensor instead of as a normal sensor with the enum values (open, tilted and closed) like the other window contacts. In the device list that I call up with IP, I see no difference between the devices, could it be that the integration here accidentally creates the wrong entity type for whatever reason?
Wrongly added device for the sleeping room:

Correct added device from the bath room:
And here a picture of the same homepilot devices added to home assistant, but one as sensor and the other as binary sensor:
