HomeWhiz Washer/Dryer - Duration vs Remaining
n00bcodr opened this issue · 5 comments
Hi there!
If you have access to the times Bob starts and finishes :), I recommend you use these values plus the duration to specify the time. Otherwise, you can use remaining time. The section on remaining time in the README explains what values you'll need to pair with the remaining time.
Hey, did you get this working? I have a Beko washing machine and I'm trying to get the card working but I'm not sure if I need to create a custom sensor or just use the info in the card.
So far my progress is:
type: custom:timer-bar-card
debug: true
entities:
- entity: sensor.izaura_remaining_time
active_state: sensor.izaura_state
duration:
attribute: timespan
units: minutes
but the card looks like this:
Don't really know what is needed to make the bar appear.
If it helps in anyway, the device exposes:
The duration changes based on the program selected and the remaining time remains 1 even if the state goes to off.
@GigiPompieru I'm a bit confused looking at your current config. You have:
duration:
attribute: timespan
but the debug information in the card is showing that the sensor.izaura_remaining_time
entity doesn't have any timespan
attribute. Maybe you meant to use state: true
to set from the entity's state?
Thanks for posting all the entities by the way! This is how I'd set up the card with them:
type: custom:timer-bar-card
debug: true
entities:
- entity: sensor.izaura_state
active_state: on
duration:
entity: sensor.izura_duration
remaining:
entity: sensor.izura_remaining_time
units: minutes
Nice job! That does look like it is working. If you'd like to create an integration doc and copy paste your card configuration & screenshots, I can add it to the README to help anyone else with a HomeWhiz device.
I'll close this issue since you have a successful configuration. @n00bcodr here's your answer 😁
