For devices supporting the Auto Discovery feature. Like ZWaveJS2MQTT, Zigbee2MQTT.

MQTT devices of type "number"

Post by Maciek90 »

In Domoticz, devices reported via MQTT as type "number" do not appear as new devices. To locate them, you must navigate to the menu: "MQTT auto discovery client gateway with LAN interface" > "Configuration."
Is there any way to make a device reported as type "number" appear in the main devices menu?
I have a Shelly BLU TRV, which reports its valve opening percentage to MQTT (via Zigbee2MQTT) as a "number" type. I would really like to be able to see it as a device and control it directly from within Domoticz.

The issue is your Shelly BLU TRV, it should not report this as a number value but as a normal sensor, please report there
