Hi
I have a Home Assistant on a Rasperry pi running at home with easy integration of aqara sensors via Deconz bridge from Dresden Electronic.
These sensors are very easy to handle for me as a newbie for I.e. bilge water detection or high high alarm on water tank.

Is there any chance to use these sensors or the Deconz software via Openplotter?


Maybe someone here has a deeper knowledge and knows a solution, even without the documentation mentioning this (or knowledge of protocols etc is missing on my side).

Regards
Joerg
Aqara sensors use zigbee protocol. On the pi you have hardware to receive data from zigbee. This hardware often works with node-red. In node-red you can send data to SignalK.
On my Openplotter setup, Im using some Aquara sensors with a CC2531 adaptor and ZigbeeToMQTT software. This gets the data into MQTT and then i use NodeRed to pull it into SignalK and ultimately InfluxDB. Its a long winded way to get the data there, but it works...
