Hi Community,
So in my new venture with Node-Red, one of the examples I’m about to use (diybrad) that he has split out his device trackers to separate parts, ie:
- wifi
- bt
- node-red
I however combined all my trackers for my device and while it can sometimes cause issues (as I understand, the last to report is the last used) and was wondering does anyone else do this or do they combine them as I have? My sources are:
- tile (ble)
- phone (wifi)
- phone (zanzito)
While my tile is separate, I use a binary_sensor logical OR with the combined phone device tracker, ie:
- platform: template
sensors:
chris_presence:
value_template: >-
{{ is_state('device_tracker.homeassistant_asusz012d', 'home')
or is_state('sensor.chris_tile_state', 'true') }}
Which through trial & error/testing; as long as one reports home/true, I’m considered home.
Thoughts?
