Ikea Vindstyrka E2112 PM25 and VOC index sensors not created on Zigbee2MQTT plugin

Hi,
I am running latest Z2M and latest domoticz beta.
I added the Ikea Vindstyrka (E2112) to my zigbee network.
The device is picked up by domoticz with just the temperature and humidity sensors.

How can I make domoticz add the PM25 and the VOC index sensors ???

What integration do you use for Zigbee2MQTT? Your signature states noder-red and mqtt??

Ok, than you have to ask it tho the plugin owner. Only that plugin owner does not actively support the plugin anymore. Only if someone else creates a proposed code change he will accept it.
You can also change to the native Domoticz MQTT Autodiscover integration with Zigbee2MQTT. Perhaps it is supported there.

Any tips ? suggestions ?

Check the wiki for instructions
https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Zigbee2MQ ... toDiscover
There are some differences with the plugin on device creation as far as I know. Eg on multi mode buttons (single click, double click, long click etc) you get a switch for every mode instead of a selector switch.
With the replace function you can replace old with new devices so history of sensors and scripts are taken into account.

Hmm, I installed that new plug on my test domoticz, looking at the same mqtt server as my primary domoticz
The newly installed plug does not regognize at least half ogf my installed zigbee devices ...
The Ikea Vindstyrka does not show up at all ...
Those zigbee devices (temp, etc) do report there values in the primary domoticz and are visible in the zigbee2mqtt screen but do not show up in the autodiscovery ...
Any suggestions how to fix this ?

Since it seems your are using Node-Red already, it might be a good idea to use that instead. Pick-up the MQTT message from the Ikea Vindstyrka and create a function to split the MQTT message to the separate devices (IDX's). That way, you don't have to depend on the owner/maintainer of the plug-in. I did the same for the Ikea Vindrikting devices a couple of years back. Just an idea

As stated in the wiki, the devices will show up when they send data. For battery powered zigbee devices this can take some hours.....

That is what I said ...
a couple of devices are sending data but they are NOT detected by autodiscovery at all ..

Eddie, long story short.... When using the native MQTT Auto Discovery hardware you will get it working.
Do you get new devices? Yeah of course, it's a new hardware ID...
Can you easily transfer all old devices to the new ones... yes you can
Do you need to adjust some scripts, probably
So best way to do this is when you have some time (hours)
Best thing is, you can run them side-by-side

Ok, I'll be patient ...
most of the zigbee devices ar present now, creating 91 sensors ...
by pushing the SETUP button on this screen

I get the next screen

which is empty ...
Is this normal ???

Yes, this is normal, there only mqtt ad number devices are shown to set other zigbee devices.
The normal devices will be shown in the default device list (menu setup - devices) as you are used to also with the plugin.

Number devices are used by nodes for some settings. (Like a temperature offset)
But most things can just be configured in Zigbee2MQTT via it's web interface
