The tellstick sensor platform allows you to get current meteorological data from a TellStick device.

To use your TellStick device, you first have to set up your Tellstick hub and then add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: tellstick

Configuration variables:

• ID: Name (Optional): Entry for a sensor with the name for it and its ID.
• only_named (Optional): Only show the named sensors. Set to True to hide sensors.
• temperature_scale (Optional): The scale of the temperature value.
• datatype_mask (Optional): Mask to determine which sensor values to show based on. Please check the TellCore tellcore.constants documentation for details.
