Frontpage change away

Configuration

Hi There,

I’ve been looking around the forum but couldn’t find answer.
Is there a way to change the status from a device (like my tv) from Home/Away to On/Off

I’ve setup an entity card like this:

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: device_tracker.lgwebostv

This is working with the default Home/Away function.

Easy way is to use a template binary sensor. You might look into the template card for lovelace. I don’t have experience with it, but glancing at the examples leads me to believe you can achieve what you’re after.

Isn’t there an easy way withing a manual card creation?

I configured the LoveLace Templates and tried some thing.

I came up with this but it’s not really working as i expected :stuck_out_tongue:

type: 'custom:config-template-card'
card:
  type: '${vars[0] === ''on'' ? ''custom:hui-glance-card'' : ''custom:hui-entities-card''}'
  entities:
    - entity: device_tracker.lgwebostv
      name: >-
        ${states['device_tracker.lgwebostv'].attributes.current_state > home ?
        'Aan' : 'Uit'}
