Template Binary Sensor not showing up in iOS Home (via Homebridge)

Third party integrations Homebridge

Hi,

I have a problem to get my Z-wave door sensor to show up correctly in iOS Home (via Homebridge). The Z-wave door sensor shows up just fine in HA, but not in iOS Home.

I have tried to set up the sensor in configuration.yaml

I followed this guide: https://home-assistant.io/components/binary_sensor.template/

binary_sensor:

  • platform: template
    sensors:
    door:
    value_template: “{{ states.sensor.vision_zd2102_au_doorwindow_sensor_alarm_level_18_1 == ‘255’ }}”
    sensor_class: opening
    friendly_name: Door

I tried to check if the sensor state is on or off, but the outputs from HA/Homebrdige only gives me the 0 and 255 as an answer.

Homeassistant output:
17-01-27 20:43:08 INFO (MainThread) [homeassistant.core] Bus:Handling <Event state_changed[L]: new_state=<state sensor.vision_zd2102_au_doorwindow_sensor_alarm_level_18_1=255; battery_level=100, node_id=18, friendly_name=Vision ZD2102 AU Door/Window Sensor Alarm Level @ 2017-01-27T21:43:08.673088+01:00>, old_state=<state sensor.vision_zd2102_au_doorwindow_sensor_alarm_level_18_1=0; battery_level=100, node_id=18, friendly_name=Vision ZD2102 AU Door/Window Sensor Alarm Level @ 2017-01-27T21:43:04.593613+01:00>, entity_id=sensor.vision_zd2102_au_doorwindow_sensor_alarm_level_18_1>

Homebridge output:

Any suggestion?

Hi,

it worked for me with this config:

binary_sensor:
  - platform: template
    sensors:
      my_window:
        value_template: "{{ is_state('sensor.vision_zd2102_eu_doorwindow_sensor_alarm_level', '255') }}"
        friendly_name: My window
        device_class: window
