I created 4 scenes for my office. One of them is always active.
I create an input_select & automations to activate the appropriate scene upon selection done in the input_select.
I would like now to add a visual bar in lovelace with 4 buttons (one for each scene) and have the button icon (or colored) for the scene that is active. So visually I always see the scene that is considered as active.
I did not found any controls to add that easily. I would like to avoid creating unnecessary sensor etc…
What is the recommended pattern to use for such a need that I think should be common.
Hello, I have this setup running:
The new OpenZwave integration. Integrated and working “well” (well, acceptable for testing).
I have recently added 2 doorsensors. Included succesfully and working. But.
I have the Aeotec Z-stick in my hass. Then I have succesfully included and can see working aeotec range extender about 15m from the zstick.
now when I move the doorsensor closer to the repeater it does not send any updates anymore… If I walk back towards the zstick it picks it up again…
Where do I need to start troubleshooting? I am used to zwave and that routing will happen if the controller is not near. I also tried to heal the network, does not help.
I want to show the history of current_temperature for the past couple days using either history graph card or custom:mini-graph-card, how can I access that attribute in the card?
Hi, in my house i have a domotica controller, i can send TCP commands to it to turn all my lights/switches on off, all is working perfectly , i have configured all templates lights/switches, that use a shell command…
i have also exposed my lights/switches to google assistant, all was working fine , untill this new improvement came :
before that PR: basicly what happened, is when you say to google like, turn all lights on , it sends the all commands in a sequence, so my light was turned on, one by one … no problem
After that PR/ when you say, turn all lights ON, HA just sends ON commands all together, and not in sequence anymore… my controller is not able to handle multiple requests together …
so i am tryng to write a code, like below, with some copy/paste stuff from google, but i cant figure it out, something is not right, with that try except stuff
the code is working though, when i turn 1 light on / off, but when turn on like 4 lights, only 2 are turned ON
how can i make this to work?
or is there maybe another way to accomplish what i want todo ?
My ecobee randomly decides to stop working from time to time. Each time I have to delete it, then re-add it and go through the whole authorization process again. How can I prevent this from happening, or is there a better way to debug/manage this? It gets quite annoying. Nothing is being touched on the ecobee side. Just randomly on HA reboots it’ll just lose connection.
I apologize upfront for the newbie questions but I’ve scoured the documentation and I’m still a bit lost.
I’ve added the time_date sensor to my config but now I want to convert the time date format to US. I see that templating is the way to go but I’m absolutely lost on where and how to create this template. I’m not afraid of coding things w/ the appropriate examples, but where do I put the code? How do I replace the native display options with that code?
Is there any good step by step primers on how to do this or something similar that I can study and use as a guide to get started? I’ve found some code snippets but not knowing where to put them or how to interact with them makes the code useless to me.
So, I’ve got 2 Dyson fans, one is a Pure Cool link, and the other is a Pure Hot+cool link. Both fans seem to work fine from a HA standpoint. I can turn them on/off, adjust the speed, night mode, etc; as well as control the heat/cool climate settings of the Hot+cool fan. Great.
When either one of the fans is set to a speed of 1-10, the state of the fan entity, is set to “on”.
When either one of the fans is set to a speed of AUTO, the state of the fan entity, is set to “off”.
In the below screenshots fan.bedroom has a speed of 2, where fan.living_room is set to AUTO:
I would expect to see a fan state be set to “on” if the fan is set to “AUTO” or “1-10”. Not Just “1-10”.
Is this a bug, or an undocumented feature? Anyone else experiencing this?
Hello.
I tried to use different frames and also custom frame https://github.com/covrig/homeassistant-iframe-card.
In all cases I see nothing at window.
In case with “panel_iframe” , I see " 192.168.1.1 refused to connect." in the window.
192.168.1.1 is address of my router and it opens well in chrome.
It opens HA under router label and inside it router field is empty.
Looks like something miss or something blocks to present external links in all kinds of frames.
I will glad to get advance to fix it.
I am new to the HA, so please forgive unadvanced questions here.
I am having trouble understanding addressing in the HA - the homeassistant.components.rest.switch notations, for instance. I am not new to the Python and under regular circumstances it will mean to me the importing of the homeassistant module itself and the addressing the subclasses. So the questions I have are:
I have Fibaro ZWave lights devices. How can I rename them into the more user-friendly versions (lights.kitchen.strip, for instance), in the cli? Where are these files located?
I saw some people using log facility, or something. Is there a reference to understand this too?
I want to start the automation if the blinds have a special position, i.e. below 50%.
At present I have problems with the below code: condition entity_id: cover.storeroom
There is no action if the blinds is below 50%
How can I solve this issue, has anybody some ideas?
I want to use SSH to shutdown my Synology NAS.
I have created keys and played around with different permissions but haven´t managed to make it work yet.
Has anybody in here managed to make HA (NOT Hassio and NOT Docker) shutdown their Synology through SSH and a shell command?
I can call the homeassistant.turn_on and off to activate the group but the status always shows as off.
Also, when I had Alexa working to turn on and off this group, Alexa would always say “bose is not responding” even though they did indeed turn on with the command.
Any tips regarding config or something else to allow the group status to be sensed?
Trying to get fan integration to work with Alexa and Home Assistant. I’m using Sonoff IFAN02 with tasmota, and it works almost perfectly… even room aware (which is AWESOME as the old way i had it with routines was a pain).
What I’m running into now is the on/off commands are not room aware (in alexa), but the fan speed commands are (weird right?). Anyways, I saw some folks putting in an “off” speed in the fan entity, so I did that, which works in HASS, but Alexa says it’s unresponsive when calling the “set fan speed”. Likewise on the alexa app, if I toggle the fan speed to zero, it gives me an unresponsive, but toggling to 1-3 work fine.
Anyone run into this problem that has been able to solve it? Or am I barking up a tree that just won’t work with the current alexa skill set from amazon?
Thanks in advance for looking!
I used the template posted on tasmota HASS integration website as a basis and added the payload_off_speed: "0" and the -"off" to the speed list.
hello, i have a strange problem with an ip address template on a device.tracker.
I always have a “TemplateSyntaxError: expected token 'end of print statement” error when I try to retrieve the @ ip from the device trackers which starts with a number in the mac address.
But it works great for those who start with a letter!
Does anyone have an explanation to this ?
