I’m trying to figure out how to use the Entity or Entities card to set seconds on an input.datetime entity.
When I add the entity to the entities card I get an input field that only shows HH:MM, but the entity is made up of HH:MM:SS. I can make changes to the seconds using the States developer tool, but I’m trying to keep everything on one card.
I’m trying to do this because I have a working dual rate electricity meter (based on HA Glow) and I’ve got 2 sets of meter readings working perfectly and staying in sync with whats on the meter. I’ve noticed a slight drift due to the fact that meter is synced to its own clock which drifts from internet time by some 30 seconds a month. At the moment this is controlled by changing the trigger times in a Energy Meter Helper, but I’ve like to put all the offsets in one place (Entities Card).
Any guidance or comments would be really appreciated.
PS I already posted in the Epic Date/Time manipulation thread. Could an admin please remove it - Thanks
