Hi everyone,
can somebody please help me figure out this so I can upgrade.
It’s my understanding that I can do this:
binary_sensor:
- platform: ping
host: 192.168.0.1
name: ping_sensor
scan_interval: 30
By using the ping integration UI and then have an automation like this:
alias: "ping scan_interval"
description: ""
trigger:
- platform: time_pattern
seconds: /30
condition: []
action:
- service: homeassistant.update_entity
target:
entity_id:
- binary_sensor.ping_sensor
data: {}
mode: single
But what about this:
device_tracker:
- platform: ping
scan_interval: 60
count: 5
consider_home: 180
hosts:
ping_phone: 10.0.0.100
Can I use this automation?
alias: "ping scan_interval 60 seconds"
description: ""
trigger:
- platform: time_pattern
minutes: /1
condition: []
action:
- service: homeassistant.update_entity
target:
entity_id:
- device_tracker.ping_phone
data: {}
mode: single
And what about consider_home
? I can’t figure that out.
Thanks!
