Hi,
I am trying to get a simplistic automation working (or so i hoped), where when a temperature is detected above X, that a switch is turned on. Then when its below Y, it turns off again.
The idea is that a Zooz temperature sensor (ZSE11) will control when a fan will turn on in my attic, with the fan having a simplistic control method of a Zooz ZEN15 plug.
I have begun with just the ‘turn on’ when above, and I would guess I’ll need an entirely separate ‘turn off’ automation too, but what I have, despite making sense in the GUI, does not work whatsoever in testing (with a lower temperature of course).
Current YAML -
alias: Attic - Turn Fan On
description: Turns on roof fan when temperature goes above 100F
trigger:
- type: temperature
platform: device
device_id: xyzabc123
entity_id: sensor.attic_sensor_air_temperature
domain: sensor
above: 60
condition: []
action:
- type: turn_on
device_id: xyzabc123
entity_id: switch.attic_fan
domain: switch
mode: single
I have also tried with the trigger instead being a condition, but it just doesnt work whatsoever.
Am i missing something obvious here?
Thanks in advance!
