Change name of state 'geschlossen'

Configuration

Hi there!
Is it possible to change the name of the german cover state ‘geschlossen’ to ‘zu’?
Thank you for helping me!

Not really
You can create a template sensor and define the values you want

That works fine, thank you! I did it like this

sensor:
  - platform: template
    sensors:
      rolladen_alle_status:
        friendly_name: "Rolladen Alle"
        value_template: "
          {% if is_state('cover.rolladen_alle', 'open') %}
          {{ 'Auf' }}
          {% elif is_state('cover.rolladen_alle', 'closed') %}
          {{ 'Zu' }}
          {% else %}
          {{ '???' }}
          {% endif %}"

But how can i change the icon depending on the custom status?

You can find a example in the doc

„ CHANGE THE ICON WHEN A STATE CHANGES“

@deluxestyle Thank you, BUT :slight_smile: when using this example, home assistant says " [icon] is an invalid option for [sensor.template]" and the visual studio editor says “Property icon is not allowed”. I read somehint like this already. I think i read, that the icon property is only allowed at binary sensors?

Ah sorry. yes seems only for binary sensors
Not sure if there is another way

Sorry. It should be icon_template
