Custom unit of measurement

Some sensor value types are not specific for a certain sensor type. These do not have a default unit of measurement in Home Assistant. For example, the V_LEVEL type can be used for different sensor types, dust, sound, vibration etc.

By using V_UNIT_PREFIX, it’s possible to set a custom unit for any sensor. The string value that is sent for V_UNIT_PREFIX will be used in preference to any other unit of measurement, for the defined sensors. V_UNIT_PREFIX can’t be used as a standalone sensor value type. Sending a supported value type and value from the tables above is also required. V_UNIT_PREFIX is available with MySensors version 1.5 and later.
