Mqtt Cover tilt

Configuration
1

I have Elero venetian blinds, which are being driven over mqtt.
I can control tilt up and down. Elero doesn’t detect tilt position, therefor I can’t detect it.

I reduced tilt command set from default 0 - 100 to 0 - 1, using options

"tilt_opened_value" : 1
"tilt_max" :1

which are described here

Tilt button works as described - tilt_up send’s command 1. But tilt slider is still from 0 to 100. Any number above 1 actually sends command 1.
mqtt_slider_tilt
Is this normal, does anyone else have similar issue ?
Is it possible to reduce slider range, or hide it ?

Hello,

I think the slider represent the opening in percent so you have always 0% - 100%.
You have limit the values only from 0-1 so everything above 0% = 1 …

I have absolute no experience with cover tilt but shown in the docs you will have also a tilt _closed and a tilt_min value.

Maybe try something like:

    tilt_min: 0
    tilt_max: 100
    tilt_closed_value: 0
    tilt_opened_value: 1

I too have “Elero” blinds and I too try to configure them via an MQTT gateway. However the entity card does not show the additional controls for tilt, just the normal up,stop,down buttons.

I use essentially the mediola2mqtt add-on, that I did expand a little to include a bunch of additional values in the autoconfigure payload. But obviously I’m still missing something that triggers the rendering of the additional controls.
