Hi!
I have a common wall switch for light controlled by Switchbot (robot that can press buttons)
I control the robot via HA, but HA can’t know the real state of light. This is the robot control on HA
I have also a Hue Light motion sensor, I would like to set the state of light based on how many lux the hue sensor detects
So if lux are >30 change ‘‘Alogene’’/switch.switchbot to on, but I want only to change the state and not to physically trigger the switch.
Ej. less tha 10 lux --> light switch is off. More than 50lux–> Light switch is on
You could use a template switch and in the value template put the lux check you want.
I tried to use it, but I don’t know how to set it properly. How to set over x lux consider it on, under x lux consider it off.
switch:
- platform: template
switches:
alogene:
value_template: "{{ is_state('sensor.hue_motion_sensor_1_light_level', 'on') }}"
turn_on:
service: switch.turn_on
data:
entity_id: switch.switchbot
turn_off:
service: switch.turn_off
data:
entity_id: switch.switchbot
Try this:
You almost got it, try this:
switch:
- platform: template
switches:
alogene:
value_template: "{{ states('sensor.hue_motion_sensor_1_light_level') | float > 30 }}"
turn_on:
service: switch.turn_on
data:
entity_id: switch.switchbot
turn_off:
service: switch.turn_off
data:
entity_id: switch.switchbot
This should show “on” when the lux is above 30.
