The problem / 问题详情

There are no sensorvalues present on my Smart Pet Feeder 2. Button control is working. For example desiccant level values shows 0 and the app shows 86%.
The food sensors show no values also.

I understand you're experiencing missing sensor values (desiccant level and food level) for your Smart Pet Feeder 2 in Home Assistant, while the Mi Home app shows correct values. This is typically caused by incomplete property mapping or missing device-specific configuration.

Required Diagnostic Information

To properly diagnose this issue, please provide:

1. Exact device model ID: Go to HA → Settings → Devices & Services → Xiaomi Miot Auto → Click your feeder → Device Info → Copy the "Model" field (format: xiaomi.feeder.xxxx or mmgg.feeder.xxxx)

2. Home Assistant logs:

   • Enable debug logs for the integration
   • Restart HA and filter logs for xiaomi_miot or your device model
   • Look for any property reading errors

3. Entity attributes: Click on any feeder entity in HA → Settings (gear icon) → Click "Advanced" → Copy the attributes shown

Immediate Solutions

Solution 1: Add Custom Configuration

Based on similar feeder models, add this to your configuration.yaml:

# For Xiaomi Smart Pet Feeder 2 (adjust model if needed)
xiaomi_miot:
  device_customizes:
    'xiaomi.feeder.*':  # Replace * with your exact model if known
      chunk_properties: 1
      sensor_properties: 'pet_food_left_level,desiccant_left_level,desiccant_left_time,eaten_food_measure'
      number_properties: 'target_feeding_measure'
      button_actions: 'pet_food_out,reset_desiccant_life'

After adding, restart Home Assistant.

Solution 2: Verify Property Mapping

The desiccant level is typically mapped to desiccant_left_level property. If your model uses a different property name, you may need custom mapping:

xiaomi_miot:
  device_customizes:
    'your.model.here':
      sensor_properties: 'prop.2.1,prop.3.1'  # Replace with actual property IDs

Solution 3: Check for Excluded Properties

Some models accidentally exclude critical properties. Ensure your configuration does NOT contain:

exclude_miot_properties: '...desiccant...'  # Remove any desiccant-related exclusions

Common Patterns from Reference Configurations

For Smart Pet Feeder models, the integration typically expects:

• Food level: pet_food_left_level sensor
• Desiccant level: desiccant_left_level sensor
• Desiccant time: desiccant_left_time sensor
• Eaten food: eaten_food_measure sensor (with state_class: measurement, unit: g)

If your device uses non-standard property IDs, the values won't populate automatically.

Please provide the diagnostic information above so I can give you a precise custom configuration for your specific model.
