I have defined my first ESPHome cover (of type timer) and it is discovered fine by HA.
Using ESPHome API and not MQTT interface to HA.The issue is that the position indicator and open/close arrows in HA entity are confusing - the arrows don’t get greyed out as they should and the Blue position inidcator is mirrored relative to the up/down arrows.
The only thing that looks OK is the shutter icon on the left.
ESPHome defines closed as 0% and open as 100%.
As you can see the HA States shows the blind as closed and 0% which it is indeed (physically)
- 1st, It would look more logical if the up-down arrows could be reversed - can they? Or maybe reverse percentage (100% closed, 0% open)? I know that for zwave these options exist.
- 2nd Why doesn’t the down arrow (close) gery out? It should shouldn’t it? as HA knows it is in closed position…
Edit:
regarding the 2nd point I made I found that the assumed_state was true - changed it to false and now arrow is greyed out.
Why is this the default?Still wandering regarding 1st point…
