Expose sensor units

Open nixmeer opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Hello :)

I'd like to see sensor units as this one exposed. Is there a reason for it not being shown as 2 buttons? Did anyone try to implement it yet and found difficulties?

Best

Hi.

What use case do you have for this? I think we should directly control the accessory and not a button which is connected to an accessory.

Heij :)

we'd like to have one place to manage all scenes and automations such as "if button xy is pressed, do ...". Currently, Siri cannot access any scenes from free@home, so it could be a way to expose all light switches as buttons. It'd be slower for sure since the it takes time to contact the Apple TV but it'd be all in one place.

important use case: hetrogenous system landscapes, e.g. free@home wall switch controls non-free@home non-zigbee acessory
