This is pretty similar to what I would want. However, I can’t make a graph like this on a card on the dashboard, because there are no statistics available related to the ecobee thermostat. I think I need to make a template sensor, but I’m not sure about the exact code to do this.
I would be happy with a simple graph over time showing whether cooling was on or off. Here is what I see under “States” related to the thermostat.
Hi
I’ve made the following dashboard based on the link posted above with a little modification. I made a few sensors to report the temperature setpoint, when the fan is running (green), and when the heater is running (red, but shows up as yellow when the fan is running simultaneously (red+green)).
I still haven’t figured out how to add gridlines or x-axis yet, so if anyone has any points, please let me know.
I’m interested in creating a 24 hour duty cycle for my Ecobee 3 Lite. More specifically, to track the amount of time the Ecobee is in Cooling mode. It looks like you’ve sort of laid it out here but since I’m not too well versed with HA, I could use a little help.
My Ecobee sensor looks the same as the screenshot above from admbarnett. I’m not sure what sensor I need to use though. I’m assuming climate.upstairs but the state I think I need to track is actually an attribute inside the sensor: hvac_action.
I don’t know where to put the duty cycle code you added in this thread.
Thanks for the help! I’m happy to provide further information if needed.
You can just drop that into the configuration.yaml file in your main directory.
You can access that by using the file editor add -on
Let me know if you need a bit more help than that. We’ve all been there with HA and getting started really sucks sometimes. Especially given the changes that have happened in the last two years. Lots of outdated documentation floating around the web.
