ZooZ ZSE70 reporting negative Lum values #38

Description

My ZooZ ZSE70 reports very bright lum values as negative. It occurs when the measured light is above approx. 32,730 lx. This is suspiciously close to 2^15; is upper bit being treated as a sign bit? Sensor's logged values and their graph can be found here: https://rick.samcos.com/downloads/ZSE70/ZSE70LumProblemValues.pdf

This problem has been occuring since I installed the ZSE70 last July. The device is mounted on my house's roof, in full sunlight. It is used to control shades throughout the house. I've grown weary of trying to compensate programmatically. E.g., it is difficult to effectively implement a rule trigger of "Illuminance of ZSE70 reports > someThresholdValue and stays that way for 0:0X:00".

The ZSE70 reports its hardware version as 1 & firmware version as 1.20. My Hubitat C-8 Pro is running v2.4.0.151 and ZSE70 custom driver v1.2.2 [2024-06-28 (@jtp10181)],
