Can anybody please review my code? I can’t get my ‘automatic humidity’ controller get to work.
It looks like is doesnt trigger the lambda’s, it should trigger all the time ( loop ) when the sensor value is above 10… but it doesnt. Anybody some suggestions?
unfortunately it is not possible to have multiple “on_value_range” triggers…

I would probably create three template binary sensors that define the desired on/off states and then use the on_press and on_release features. The template binary sensor has a poll rate of 60s but it is configurable.
Another idea that is probably better is just to have an automation that fires every x seconds and checks these conditions.
A third option now that I see your humidity sensor updates only every 60s, use the on_value instead of the range. Then check for the range inside like you are already doing.

And yet another idea is to do the automation in home assistant.
Thanks for the responce!
Created a function that fires every minute ( see code ), working perfectly ;)!
Thanks

Having some issues with the automatic handling of the lambda :
time:
- platform: sntp
on_time:
- seconds: 0
minutes: /1
then:
- logger.log: "getting in trigger loop "
- logger.log:
format: "humidity %.1f auto humidity state %.1f ith_fan speed %.1f"
args: [ 'id(badkamer_luchtvochtigheid).raw_state', 'id(auto_humidity).state','id(itho_fan)' ]
- if:
condition:
lambda: 'return (id(badkamer_luchtvochtigheid).state > 0.0 && id(badkamer_luchtvochtigheid).state < 69.9) && (id(auto_humidity).state == true) && ((id(itho_fan).speed == !0));'
then:
- fan.turn_on:
id: itho_fan
speed: LOW
- logger.log: "automated humidity controller : LOW!"
- if:
condition:
lambda: 'return (id(badkamer_luchtvochtigheid).state > 85.0 && id(badkamer_luchtvochtigheid).state < 100.0) && (id(auto_humidity).state == true) && (id(itho_fan).speed == !1);'
then:
- fan.turn_on:
id: itho_fan
speed: HIGH
- logger.log: "automated humidity controller : HIGH!"
- if:
condition:
lambda: 'return (id(badkamer_luchtvochtigheid).state > 70 && id(badkamer_luchtvochtigheid).state < 84.9) && (id(auto_humidity).state == true) && (id(itho_fan).speed == !0.5);'
then:
- fan.turn_on:
id: itho_fan
speed: MEDIUM
- logger.log: "automated humidity controller : MEDIUM!"
The last statement of the if conditions should get the current speed/state of the fan, thus only going further if the state is not the same as the current state.
Strangely it is only working on medium and low, but the high fan state value won’t be triggered…
id(itho_fan).speed == !1 what does this mean? Did you mean id(itho_fan).speed != 1?
I’m unclear on why you need this at all. I assume if the fan is on high and you turn it on high nothing happens.
Thanks alot!
That did the trick: “id(itho_fan).speed != 1”, i’m a beginner concerning C (just a mechanical engineer );)!
I need it because otherwise i’m transmitting (with remote hooked up to ESP ) every time the function get’s triggered.

Then again, this is the home assistant forum…
