Configuration Variables

Looking for your configuration file?
offset integer (Optional, default: o)

The offset to fix reported vales.

scale integer (Optional, default: 1)

The scale for the sensor.

name string (Optional, default: Unnamed Device)

The name to use when displaying this sensor.

Since some of these sensors consistently show higher temperatures the scale and offset values can be used to fine-tune your sensor. The calculation follows the formula scale * sensor value + offset.

The TEMPer sensors can only be accessed as root by default. To fix the USB permissions on your system create the file /etc/udev/rules.d/99-tempsensor.rules and add the following line to it:

SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ACTION=="add", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0c45", ATTRS{idProduct}=="7401", MODE="666"

After that re-plug the device and restart Home Assistant.
