I have two thermostats and I’m trying to understand how to get and react to the data from them.
One example is the device Bedroom thermostat
, a physical thermostat (quirk: zhaquirks.bitron.thermostat.Av201032). It has the following entity IDs: sensor.thermostat1_hvac_action
sensor.bedroom_thermostat_power
climate.bedroom_thermostat_temp_and_heat
If I wanted to create an automation based on the current temperature measured versus target, how would I go about this? There is no sensor for temperature. Is the idea to rely on sensor.thermostat1_hvac_action
to let the thermostat manage this though manual input on the physical thermostat, and then use sensor.thermostat1_hvac_action
to turn the heating in the room on and off?
When I check the “Bedroom thermostat temp and heat current temperature” and “Bedroom thermostat temp and heat target temperature” in HASS History, I can see the values there. But how do I get to those values for automations?
