Philiotech temperature and humidity, humidity differential

[Slorf]

Hi,

I bought 2 Philiotech 2 in 1 sensors for measuring the humidity in our bathrooms so i can control the ventilation unit.

When configuring the sensors i noticed an option "humidity differential" which can be set in percentage.

This option would be perfect for me, triggering an alarm when de humidity difference get too high.

But...

No idea how to get it working

Anyone ?

Thanks

Alex

Thinking logically you need 2 (virtual) sensor on two physical / virtual places to make a differential measurement

According to the manual the sensor will report to the devices in group 1 when the humidity changes by a certain percentage.

Question is how to read this event in Domoticz ?, I only see current temperature and humidity.

When going through different manuals for temperature / humidity sensors they all support this function.

Right now it only reports the temperature and humidity every 60 seconds, i set it to trigger on a humidity difference of 5%, but have to clue how this trigger will me reported in Domoticz.

Fibaro as a similar setting on its door sensor, raising an alarm when the temparature gets too high.

The Temp./Humid. detector can be set to emit report of humidity status
to the nodes of Grouping 1 automatically once the humidity change
exceeds set %RH. The humidity difference range can be set from
5%RH to 70%RH. For instance, if humidity difference is set in 5%RH,
the detector will report its current humidity status once the humidity
difference exceeds 5%RH. Please refer to the parameter 8 of
configuration table on page 6.

Humidity Report:
When the flood triggered or the humidity differential over 5 percent (in
default), the device will unsolicited to send the “Sensor Multilevel
Report” to the nodes in the group 1.
Sensor Type: Humidity (0x05)
Note: To disable send humidity report after the flood triggered, please
setting the configuration N0.6 bit6 to 1.
*** Humidity differential report ***
This function default is enabled, to disable this function by setting the
configuration NO.23 to zero.
Enable this functionality, the device will measure the humidity in every
10 seconds. And if the humidity is changed to plus or minus the value
(setting by the configuration NO.23), the device will report humidity
information to the nodes in the group 1.
