Hi,
That would be great.
I would really appreciate having an “input_number” entity under “modbus” integration that would work as it is described in this thread.
Apparently there are some more similar topics:
Hi
In some situations it is necessary to keep a slider or generally an “input number” entity synchronized with a Modbus value that has been changed with the Modbus write register service.
This can be done with an automation. Example:
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id:
- sensor.wp_raumeinfluss
action:
- service: input_number.set_value
data:
value: "{{ states.sensor.wp_raumeinfluss.state }}"
target:
entity_id: input_number.wp_raumeinfluss
It would be easie…
Unless I am mistaken, I don’t think we have a holding register that can be changed from the home assistant UI directly like the modbus platform switch operates bidirectionally for a binary value.
Right now I use get and set automations to update a defined input_number box, but it is very messy compared to the modbus platform switch.
Please vote on them.
