When there is no temp sensor attached, temperature is set to zero as default. Meteobridge does not support humidity only sensors, so there is no other way to represent it. Soil moisture is measured in cbar, not as relative humidity in percent (which would not make sense btw as relative humidity reflects on capability of the air to store humidity and this time we are talking about the ground, not air)
