Zwavejs2mqtt auto-discovery of rain meter

[Romain2022]

Finally I migrate to ZWAVE-JS-UI and now I clearly see the battery level. I think the problem came from OZW.

Hello everyone,

The subject of the battery level not reported is always present in my Domoticz.
Do you know, if some actions are made for this ?

Thanks.

This modules works fine in OZW and zwavejs-ui, but AD integration in Domoticz has never worked properly in my case.
Instead of AD, I use a dummy rainmeter populated directly by Node Red

What is not working correct? Please post a issue on Github.
Also include some incremental payloads from the m3 counter
(in the above case zwave/8/50/0/value/196609)

Ok, I have set a logger up for updates. Need now rain comes !
zwave/8/50/0/value/196609 is redundant with zwave/8/49/0/General_purpose. I use the second one since the value is directly in mm.

[gizmocuz]

I think here is your issue. You need to use zwave/8/50/0/value/196609
the general purpose also hase no unit in the config.

1 mm of rain equals 0,001m3, and it is translated in Domoticz correctly

Hope it stays sunny for some time ..

Rain was there yesterday, here is complete reporting:

The log reports 1.5mm for last wednesday but it should be 2.5mm according to updates record:
Before "2023/02/22 14:30:13": 626 mm
Latest value at "2023/02/22 15:48:07" : 628.5 mm

I also have a Popp-rainmeter, so this has to work correctly before I eventually perhaps will switch from OpenZwave to zwave-JS.
Will be following this topic....

And while you are at it.... perhaps change the month/year graph from line to bare graph. Because the Popp-rainmeter only transmits rain values, never a zero value like the 433mhz rainmeters often do, they transmit every few minutes a zero if it does not rain. This works well with a line graph, but with a Popp-rainmeter that does not send zero values when it does not rain. You get a line between two data points from days when it rained. So when it rains 10mm 1 April and then 15mm on 19 April you get a line from 10mm to 15mm through all the days which are in between. This is wrong... the line between 2 April and 18 April should be zero. With a bar graph, you get no bar on the Popp, and a "zerro bar" for the 433mhz on the days between 2 and 18 April when it does not rain, this is a correct representation.
