tedhavelka66 is this data you’re trying to get for different “sensor types” on the same chip? The options that are built into Zephyr are pretty extensive:

If it’s a different representation of the same value, then you can use the set attribute method to change the “mode” of the device. For instance, I use one attribute to change the output mode from the numerical representation to the “raw” value of the SHTC3 output.
If you’re looking to get multiple readings from the same sensor, you can simply request the same data multiple times.
Hope that helps.
