Hi! I’m new here, but not new to automation. I’m diving into Home Assistant and picked up some Aeotec Multipupose sensors for my legacy washer/dryer/dishwasher. I’m attempting to build an automation to alert me when a cycle completes (and I cannot simply use power monitoring). The logic I’m looking to implement would look like…
When my washing machine accelerometer
Changes to stopped and remains that way for more than 5 minutes
After transitioning from moving and having been that way for more than 5 minutes
notify me.
The underlined part is what I can’t seem to find. It looks like there’s a way to do it with vibration sensors, and… That’s about what I’ve been able to find. I haven’t given up on finding an answer in the documentation, but not knowing which section I should be looking in makes this extra-challenging. Heck, I don’t even know if I’m looking for something that “you can’t get there from here.”
Can anyone give me some pointers?
