To control the lights, I use the Siemens S7 1200 automation, which I connected to Home-assistant via Nodred. I use a button to turn the lights on and off. The output relay on the Siemens Controller is responsible for the state of the lights. I created a light template that shows me the state of the light (on and off). I would also like to include in the template that with the command turn on the light, the light turns on only if it is turned off.
Now when I turn on the light, it switches (on if it’s off and off if it’s on)
Has anyone had such a case?
Here is my template example:
- platform: template
lights:
##### Luč kabinet ###########################
luc_kabinet:
friendly_name: "Kabinet"
unique_id: 7b1c9ca3-036a-492d-82b0-ed0265e300e3
value_template: "{{ is_state('binary_sensor.siemens_q9_4', 'on') }}"
turn_on:
service: input_button.press
data: {}
target:
entity_id: input_button.gumb_1
turn_off:
service: input_button.press
data: {}
target:
entity_id: input_button.gumb_1
In the automation, I check the status of binary_sensor.siemens_q9_4 and the automation works. I would like to be able to check this status in the template as well.
Here is example of my automation.
