Thank you! I finally figured out (just now) that some of my outputs seem to look like lights and some are switches. Not sure what determines how they are categorized since they are all relay outputs but I have it working now.
@rsw686 I am sure this should be obvious but I have not been able to create a card which permits me to turn on or off various outputs on my OmniPro. The Omnipro has a bunch of relay outputs that control things but I have yet to figure out how to turn them on or off or to see their status. This...
This may not really be an OLB question but rather a HA UI question. I have a card with a set of Omnipro sensors showing their state. If I click one of them I will see the history. Is there a way to have the time of the last state change (or two) appear on the card?
P.S. I figured out how to...
@grantlewis also, I have 3 Omnistat thermostats and in the card I created they all show Idle (Cool) except one says Idle (Cool) - On. What does the On mean?
My HAI system controls my Russound sound system. Haiku was able to control it through the HAI. Is there any way that the Russound could be exposed to Home Assistant by OLB?
@grantlewis Thanks for the suggestion. Another question: I added a card for the alarm state and it shows the ARM AWAY and ARM HOME states with buttons. However clicking these when the system is disarmed seems to have no effect. However, if the system is armed then the status shows and a DISARM...
I am still trying to get this simple automation to work.
service: climate.set_temperature
data:
target_temp_high: 75
target:
entity_id: climate.family_room
When I create the automation in Safari and after I enable it, then go to another page and then come back, the automation shows that...
That's good to hear.
Right now I am trying to figure out how to create an automation that sets the cool setpoint on a thermostat to a value at a fixed time. I created a simple automation that looks like this:
```
alias: set FR cooling to 85
description: ''
trigger:
- platform: time
at...
Yes, that sounds like it would work but somehow Haiku sees this status change without new flags being created on the HAI so I thought that perhaps that status is exposed to the OLB.
Is there a way for me to see the real-time status (i.e. actively cooling or heating) of a thermostat and put it on the card on the dashboard? I can see the cool setting and the current temp but not the status.
I guess I add a card and select the device?
P.S. I managed to add a thermostat which shows the correct temps and I can change the settings. Whoopee!
Thanks to all for your expert help (and patience).
I figured out the syntax and voilà, it is now showing devices (under Configuration-> MQTT->)!! However, there is no status associated with my 200+ entities.
How do I get to show status, etc on the Dashboard? Is that setup automagically or do I create a custom dashboard?
@rsw686 Thanks for catching that. I actually noticed it and edited my post to show it is enabled.
@grantlewis The template that I see looks like this:
```
logins: []
customize:
active: false
folder: mosquitto
certfile: fullchain.pem
keyfile: privkey.pem
require_certificate: false
```
I...
Thanks. I made a couple of changes to my config for OLB based on that example. I added the HA ip address. The only signficant difference I see is that I have no MQTT username or password as I never set one up (don't know where to do that). But I assumed that since none was set it was not...
I have a MQTT Broker and OLB installed and I can see devices and status changes in the OLB log. However I do not see Omnipro devices in HA. I would like to be able to see devices, their status and the ability to modify device parms (e.g. Thermostat settings) from the Dashboard as well as having...
I am totally new to HA. I installed the Omnilink Bridge and the MQTT Broker. I configured the bridge and it appears to have connected to the HAI and sees my devices. How do I now make use of this integration in HA? I am currently using Haiku and it would certainly be nice to repace it with...
