Hello Community,
I whould like to have a automation for auto watering with a miflora sensor and a relay for the pumps. For the first the automation works when the miflora sensor say the moisture is under 20% it triggers the relay for the pumps. But now i whould like to have a delay that switch the toggle to off after 30 seconds or 1 minute. I set a delay but dont work for me. Can anyone help me please whats the mistake
?Presuming the second screenshot is your ‘action’ it looks as though the delay is after the toggle?
Yes and I do not know how to write it 00:00:01 or 00:01
Military time HH:MM:SS
Yes that works but its wrong 
sry my bad english. Now it switch the toggle 30 seconds later when the sensor is trigger but i will then when the sensor is trigger it turn on and after 30 seconds it set off. Simply said i will that it switch FOR 30 seconds
Yeah, I don’t know how it’s supposed to look in the editor but the code in your automations.yaml should look like this…
trigger:
platform: numeric_state
entity_id: sensor.flower_1_moisture
below: 20
action:
- service: homeassistant.turn_on
entity_id: switch.pumpe_1
- delay: '00:00:30'
- service: homeassistant.turn_off
entity_id: switch.pumpe_1
Hm ok when i set i for the switch its switch after 30 seconds and when i set it after the switch it do nothing…i look tomorrow in the automation.yaml
Thanks for your help.
