Value Transformation form a generic MQTT thing

Hello

I’m using OpenHAB3 and successfully integrated this Bluetooth Thermometer:

Temperature works fine, I also get the data for humidity but it s looks like 0.4200000 % instead of 42%

I guess it’s just a simple thing to change here:


… but I was not able to find the solution. Can anyone please help?

Thanks!

That is the number you are getting on mqtt and you are using a number item. You could cheat and use a dimmer item or in a rule multiply by 100

You can try to add state description in Item properties:

Works for me in some cases…

You’ve probably linked the MQTT number channel to a Number:Dimensionless type Item. When no unit is given, that thinks it’s a ratio. 42% = 0.42-to-1 ratio.
Be sure you’ve given your unit (%) in the MQTT channel parameters.
