Hello everybody,
I am new to HA . Things I want to learn from this topic:
- How to debug a similar Problem next time
- How to create a moving average filter for an existing sensor
Problem: I want to switch a dehumidifier on if my average solar power is above 300W during the last hour and switch it of it was below 100W. For that I need to calculate the average solar power.
My Idea was to copy the code block from Filter - Home Assistant
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
- platform: filter
name: "filtered realistic humidity"
entity_id: sensor.realistic_humidity
filters:
- filter: outlier
window_size: 4
radius: 4.0
- filter: lowpass
time_constant: 10
precision: 2
- platform: filter
name: "filtered realistic temperature"
entity_id: sensor.realistic_temperature
filters:
- filter: outlier
window_size: 4
radius: 2.0
- filter: lowpass
time_constant: 10
- filter: time_simple_moving_average
window_size: "00:05"
precision: 2
the resulting configuration.yaml looks like this: (bottem section should be interesting)
# Loads default set of integrations. Do not remove.
default_config:
# Load frontend themes from the themes folder
frontend:
themes: !include_dir_merge_named themes
automation: !include automations.yaml

sensor:
- platform: filter

Nothing happens. I would expect to find some entity sensor.Leistung_Balkonkraftwerk_Mittel or at least anything containint “Mittel” in my entity list.
The input sensor should exist:
- do you see any error?
- which log should I look at for debugging?
- why does the syntax look different for template + mqtt than for filter? The sequence of the word “sensor” and the “platform” seems illogical to me. Is that some legacy thing?
I will check the topic and edit if the code blocks do not appear as expectet. It’s my first post.
Thank you in advance.
Daniel
