W200 - Add support for Ikea Alpstuga as Temperature input

When adding the Ikea Alpstuga to the W200 as an accessory, the device only shows up as an air quality sensor (e.g. “clean”). The other outputs (e.g. temperature, humidity) are not present.

It would be ideal to be able to add it as another temperature data source to the W200’s control loop, similar to what can currently be done with the Timmerflotte.

@rin15498 Hello! Thank you for sharing this specific use case and suggestion for the Aqara Thermostat Hub W200. It’s great to see users exploring how to integrate various sensors like the Ikea Alpstuga to enhance their home automation setups.

Currently, the W200 is designed to link with a maximum of 10 sensors, but the supported list is specific. According to the product specifications, the Thermostat Hub W200 can currently link with the Climate Sensor W100, Temperature and Humidity Sensor T1, and Presence Multi-Sensor FP300. It appears that the Ikea Alpstuga is not yet recognized as a temperature data source in the current firmware, which explains why it only appears as an air quality sensor.

Since you have a clear idea for improving compatibility with third-party devices like the Ikea Alpstuga, we encourage you to submit this suggestion directly.
