LUX Support about fakegato-history HOT 7 OPEN

Since v5.5, the Eve app seems to support history for Light Level. I suppose the Outdoor Cam includes a light level sensor (to control the floodlight setting to only go on when motion is detected at night).

I expose the Hue motion sensor as an accessory with services for Motion Sensor, Light Sensor, Temperature Sensor and, of course, History. I already managed to combine Motion and Temperature into a single History service, and would love to add Light Level. Does anybody know what fingerprint is used for that?

Does EVE have a sensor that supports LUX ? Without eve supporting a lux sensor this is not feasible.

From what I see it does. I can access my circle2 camera from the Eve app and the "light level" shows a reading in "lux".

That sounds like an Apple Defined default Current Light Level characteristic only 😄 Any 3rd party HomeKit accessory with a Current Light Level characteristic will show up in Eve app ( and also every other, Apple defined, standard HomeKit characteristics / services).

As @NorthernMan54 said, does any real Eve HomeKit accessory support Lux readings?

So I take it there is not API reading from the Eve app - just strict appliance interface?

The tag for CurrentAmbiantLightLevel in the 116 fingerprint is 3002; the value in the entries is a 2-byte integer with the lux value (as displayed in HomeKit).

I have it on good authority that it's actually for the yet to be released new Eve Motion, with Thread support.

Confirming what @ebaauw reported: this is what the Eve app shows for the new Eve Motion sensor that uses Thread:
