Hello,
Here I have declared read-contact switch as a binary sensor with the class moister.
If I want to create an automation in Home Assistant, it would be helpful if I got the status 0 or 1. Otherwise I can only react to changing positions on the switch (read contact).
What’s the best thing to do?
Can this be set in the ESphome code or am I doing something wrong with my automation in home-assistant?
Reason:
I need to query multiple level switches… for example:
For one I need the state change On, Off. With the other level switch, however, I don’t need a change of state but rather the state… is it on or is it off… in the automation I can’t select that at all with my binary sensor… there I only see the possibility of a change of state observe…and react to it.
