Hello Grizzelbee,

are you still working on this project? Is there any possibility to install it at the moment?

Content:

I am using the ESPresense Adapter (version 0.4.4) in ioBroker with two ESP32 devices as tag scanners. The devices are named "device1 (room1) monitor#1" and "device2 (room2) monitor#2". I am monitoring the data point "espresense.0.devices.tile_c1087b685b86.presense" to detect the presence of persons.

Initial Assumption:

I assumed that both scanners are equal in terms of functionality. This means that the data point "espresense.0.devices.tile_c1087b685b86.presense" for tile:c1087b685b86 should be set to "true" as soon as one of the two scanners detects a tag and sends data to the MQTT server.

Observed Issue:

After turning off the scanner "device2 (room2) monitor#2", the data point is no longer set to "true", even though the other scanner still detects the tag (verified in the fingerprint and MQTT.Adapter). When I turn "device2 (room2) monitor#2" back on, the data point "espresense.0.devices.tile_c1087b685b86.presense" for tile:c1087b685b86 is correctly set to "true" when a tag is detected.

However, the opposite behavior is observed when turning off the scanner "device1 (room1) monitor#1". In this case, the data point is correctly set to "true" when the remaining scanner "device2 (room2) monitor#2" detects the tag.

Conclusion:

It seems that the ESPresense Adapter by default only considers the "presence" information from one scanner, specifically from "device2 (room2) monitor#2" in this example.
