[SOLVED] FGMS001, ZW100 reporting celsius, ZW100 alternates with Fahrenheit

Add-ons Bindings
1

I’ve got a FGMS001 and a ZW100 reporting celsius. (16C should be 61F)
Actually, not always, I think the zw100 sends different reports for different reasons (periodic, and based on degrees changed), so, when I graph the history of the temperature bounces back and forth between 16 and 61.

I’m on 2.4.0.M7 Openhab and Zwave (now updated to zwave snapshot 2.4.0.201812042313 )

my language is English and my locale is US

19:25:02.026 [INFO ] [e.core.internal.i18n.I18nProviderImpl] - Locale set to 'en_US'.

I see scale=0 in the log coming from zwave. I shouldn’t need to set scale, right?
Is there something in the zwave device configuration I need to set to F?

Here’s the same node reporting as scale = 1. No system changes between the two. No reboots. nothing.

I think it’s the same, but here’s the FGMS001 log (but it’s always in C, not F)

How are your items defined? The zwave binding now supports UoM.

Ah. I missed that. I read that page, but didn’t notice the difference.

So, I changed from:
Number TempF “Temp[%.1f°]” { channel=“zwave:device:controller:node37:sensor_temperature” }

to:
Number:Temperature TempF “Temp[%.1f°]” { channel=“zwave:device:controller:node37:sensor_temperature” }

That made them display in Fahrenheit. Yay.

I was then getting an error in my rules. I guess I/we have a bit to learn on dealing with the QuantityType in rules. I’m not grasping it all yet.

semi-useful reference (search for Number:Temperature):

But, for the moment I changed from:
var TempF = (storageTempF.state as DecimalType).intValue

to:
var TempF = (storageTempF.state as Number).intValue

This is currently reporting as °F units. I’m uncertain if that is consistent or not. I hope so.
