hello, i bought Moes Matter gateway and some zigbee sensors.
Succesfully added all zigbee sensors to the Hub in Tuya app iOS.
When exposing the gateway and its zigbee sensors to Homekit, the following problems appear.

Zigbee Temperature and Humidity sensors:
eba9eec70e8bc43805xmtw
eb3ad97443d195c144gghf
eb89a158fe57312d71uava
While temperature reading is Ok, Humidity is exposed wrong.
E.g. right now the Humidity in Tuya is 34% but in Homekit the value is one digit 3%.

Zigbee Luminance contact sensor:
ebd4b95f3a236800df4kwv
It exposes the contact sensor properly, but does not expose lux sensor. Any way to expose also the lux sensor?

Zigbee usb repeater:
eb94e2a2f98ebc9dd2v84z
It appear as a water leak sensor, always closed. Any way to expose as a repeater or similar?

Please support.

Thanks a lot!!

I have obtained your feedback, I will deal with it in turn, please wait patiently for my reply.

:idea: Tip: I found that your devices are not authorized by Tuya, and it should not have any effect when the number of devices is small. If you need to use it in large quantities, remember to buy a legitimate license.

Thanks! I will wait!
Actually all of these 5 devices i purchased are advertised as Tuya…
If you need, i can provide links eventually for your check.

Re: Moes Matter and incorrect sensors reading in Homekit

For your device, I have made some optimizations:
(1) Zigbee Temperature and Humidity sensors
Humidity has been modified, please try to see if it is improved
(2) Zigbee Luminance contact sensor
Added lighting configuration, please try to see if it is improved
(3) Zigbee usb repeater
Sorry, this type is not supported and cannot fulfill your requirements

Please try to reconfigure the sub-device, see if the data improves, and let me know the result.

1) after restarting the MOES hub multiple times, humidity readings are correct now.
2) no change. The contact sensor is still exposed and working, but lux sensor is not yet exposed…can you please double check.
3) ok. Do you know, generally, if there is any way to avoid exposing certain devices to homekit? By default all devices added to the hub are exposed to Homekit…

Thanks again!!

Re: Moes Matter and incorrect sensors reading in Homekit

1) Great!
2)In the last configuration process, I also found that in fact, this type of door sensor, there is no lux in the standard template, so I can only configure it by referring to the illuminance of the PIR, so the result seems that this is not supported.
3)Sorry, I don't know that way. I also tried to find documentation and found no record of such a device. But other circuit breakers or switches can be supported. Maybe I can try to configure it as a regular switch? What do you think?

1) thanks
2) it is this model here

3) well, for now it is ok to leave it as it is. The extender has a physical switch on top of it, but i’d better not “press” it.
Thanks a lot!

Re: Moes Matter and incorrect sensors reading in Homekit

For point 2) is there any way to add the lux sensor?
For point 3) i apoligize. Is it possible to expose as a switch? Keeping it exposed as a water leaking sensor is not ok.

Thanks again for your support!
