I have pwmled working with pigpio as an automation to run the twin cooling fans on my armour case. This is my automation
- id: Update Cpu Temperature
alias: Time to Start Cpu Cooling
trigger:
platform: numeric_state
entity_id: sensor.cpu_temperature
above: 50
action:
service: light.turn_on
entity_id: light.pwm_cooling_fan
data_template:
brightness_pct: '{{ states(''sensor.cpu_temperature'') }}'
- id: Update Cooling
alias: Time to Stop Cpu Cooling
trigger:
platform: numeric_state
entity_id: sensor.cpu_temperature
below: 47
action:
service: light.turn_off
entity_id: light.pwm_cooling_fan
I notice that the entity PWM Cooling Fan does not follow the cpu temp as desired by way of the data template.
Can this be improved by making it a closed loop control?
