hey just create a file called fan.yaml in ur config dir and in ur configuration.yaml put:
fan: !include fan.yaml
Hi guys,
please help me.
I have Qubino dimmer 0-10V. I dont know, how to edit code.
The switch ON / OFF works correct.
But speed of fan doesnt work.
I am using qubino as controler Zehnder Q350 with Option box.
When i am using as light speed of fan works correct, but in homekit show dimmer light.

Im lost! I have tried this I feel like a million ways. I’m sure its something simple i am over looking here.
I have a Leviton wifi fan controller that shows up as a light and not a fan. so i tried to wrap fan config around it but I can only turn on/off the fan I cannot set any speed using the brightness. If I change the brightness of the light it does work but trying to change it on the fan entity fails.
this is my current config:
fan:
- platform: template
fans:
bedroom:
friendly_name: "Bedroom Fan"
value_template: "{{ states('light.bedroom_fan') }}"
speed_template: >
{% set output = {0: 'off', 50: 'low', 128: 'medium', 255: 'high'} %}
{% set idx = state_attr('light.bedroom_fan', 'brightness') %}
{{ output[idx] }}
turn_on:
service: homeassistant.turn_on
entity_id: light.bedroom_fan
turn_off:
service: homeassistant.turn_off
entity_id: light.bedroom_fan
set_speed:
service: light.turn_on
entity_id: light.bedroom_fan
data_template:
brightness: >
{% set mapper = {'off' : 0, 'low': 50, 'medium': 128, 'high': 255} %}
{{ mapper[speed] }}
speeds:
- 'off'
- 'low'
- 'medium'
- 'high'
You’re lost because this thread is 2 years old and there have been changes to template fan. set_speed and speeds has been deprecated. You should use the examples in the documentation page.
You have a choice, use set_preset_modes with a list of presets or set_percentage with percentages 0, 33, 66, 100 mapped to light brightness.
Hi Petro, documentation page for what? Fans??
I was replying to the guy who was using a template, so it would be the template fan docs

Thank you !
did you get this figured out? i am looking at the fan template page and see the changes from set_speed to set_percentage… tried changing the word speed to percentage in my config… it did not work… there is mroe to change i dunno what.

- platform: template

{% set output = {0: 'off', 50: 'low', 128: 'medium', 255: 'high'} %}
{% set idx = state_attr('light.bath_fan', 'brightness') %}
{{ output[idx] }}
turn_on:

set_percentage:

{{ mapper[speed] }}
speed_count: 3
sorry man, I did not have any success, seems like it should be easier but I am lost
I am also here from the year 2022 trying to use the latest version of HA and not having much luck. It looks like low/med/high speeds are automatically calculated but I’m not even messing with that, I just want to convert to/from the number values. I think my fan entity is converting from the switch’s 255 value to the fan’s percentage correctly but when I set the percentage on the fan it doesn’t update my switch.
Edit: This works!

data_template is deprecated, set percentage passes a percentage variable when used. And 255 is already an int. You need to apply int to the entire expression.
set_percentage:
service: light.turn_on
entity_id: light.living_room_fan_switch
data:
brightness: >
{{ (percentage / 100 * 255) | int }}

That did the trick, thank you! Edited my post to have the final working yaml.
This works great for me using the mushroom card, thanks.
i got this to work, it works fine for cards but i want to use this now to make an automation to increase the fan speed to 100% when the humidity in the bathroom is increasing. I only seem to be able to select on/off and not the states
