I did the
Phil Dumb washing Machine Smart
added a Zigbee Wireless Door Window Sensor to the washing machine door
as I when the washing is done BUT mite get it hung out.
so I added a hangout timer in
then added
- service: timer.start
target:
entity_id: timer.hangout
to Phil automation
“Set washing machine clean after timeout”
and we need to add the
timer.cancel to Phil
“Set washing machine active when power detected”
- service: timer.cancel
data:
entity_id: timer.hangout
just to stop the timer IF its going (should never be tho BUT)
now the timer starts when a load is finishes
- id: 49963f01-e6dc-4411-9ab2-88478b02915c
alias: washing time finish
trigger:
- platform: event
event_type: timer.finished
event_data:
entity_id: timer.hangout
action:
- service: notify.alexa_media
data_template:
data:
type: announce
target:
- media_player.bedroom
- media_player.lounge
- media_player.office
- media_player.garage
message: 'Hay I told you to hang out the washing. GO AND DO IT'
- service: timer.start
target:
entity_id: timer.hangout
So it keeps restating timer until the washine door is open
so here is that one
