i’m new on home assistant, and i got in trouble to solve a problem
i’m having a small well in my garden which supplies only small amount water at once. I installed a water tank, which level is controlled by an ultrasonic sensor, it works fine, but i have to turn off the pump in the well if the flow rate goes low, and wait 30 minutes to have the well filled again, and start it over.
i tried to create a loop, which turns of the pump when the storage tank pulse counter value less than 30000, but i can’t imagine how to put another commands (delay 30min, and switch.turn_on and delay again 1 min)
wellpump_run:
alias: Wellpump Flow control
sequence:
- service: switch.turn_on
data:
entity_id: switch.wellpump
- delay: 00:01:00
- alias: Repeat as log as conditions are true
repeat:
while:
- condition: numeric_state
entity_id: sensor.storage_tank_ultrasonic_sensor
above: 0.23
sequence:
- service_template: >
{% if (is_state("sensor.storage_tank_pulse_counter" < 30000)) -%}
- switch.turn_off
{%- else -%}
switch.turn_on
{%- endif %}
data:
entity_id: switch.wellpump
which is missing: after the switch turned off, we have to wait 30 minutes, and after that the switch turn on, and wait another 1 min
