|
|
The ``inkbird_ibsth1_mini`` sensor platform lets you track the output of Inkbird IBS-TH1, IBS-TH1 Mini, and IBS-TH2 Bluetooth
|
|
Low Energy devices using the :doc:`/components/esp32_ble_tracker`. This component will track the
|
|
temperature, external temperature (non mini only), humidity and the battery level of the IBS-TH1 device every time the
|
|
sensor sends out a BLE broadcast. Note that contrary to other implementations, ESPHome can track as
|
|
many IBS-TH1/TH2 devices at once as you want.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
If an external temperature sensor is connected to the IBS-TH1, measurement from the internal sensor is not sent.
|
|
Only one sensor will work at a time.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The external temperature sensor is not supported on the IBS-TH1 Mini or IBS-TH2

Setting Up Devices
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
To set up Inkbird IBS-TH1/TH2 devices you first need to find their MAC Address so that ESPHome can
|
|
identify them. So first, create a simple configuration without any ``inkbird_ibsth1_mini`` entries
|
|
like so:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
esp32_ble_tracker:
|
|
|
|
After uploading the ESP32 will immediately try to scan for BLE devices such as the Inkbird IBS-TH1/TH2.
|
|
When it detects these sensors, it will automatically parse the BLE message print a
|
|
message like this one:
|
|
|
|
.. code::
|
|
|
|
[13:36:43][D][esp32_ble_tracker:544]: Found device 38:81:D7:0A:9C:11 RSSI=-53
|
|
[13:36:43][D][esp32_ble_tracker:565]: Address Type: PUBLIC
|
|
[13:36:43][D][esp32_ble_tracker:567]: Name: 'sps'
|
|
|
|
Note that it can sometimes take some time for the first BLE broadcast to be received. Please note that address type
|
|
should say 'PUBLIC' and the device name should be 'sps', this is how you find the Inkbird IBS-TH1/TH2 among all the
|
|
other devices.
|
|
|
|
Then just copy the address (``38:81:D7:0A:9C:11``) into a new ``sensor.inkbird_ibsth1_mini`` platform
|
|
entry like in the configuration example at the top.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The ESPHome Inkbird IBS-TH1/TH2 integration listens passively to packets the device sends by itself.
|
|
ESPHome therefore has no impact on the battery life of the device.
