```
## Setup and Configuration
### Schlage Door Lock
1. Install Z-wave
2. Install z-wave JS module
3. Add device -> How do you want to add your device -> Legacy Secure
4. Disconnect and Reconnect the battery on the lock
5. Press and hold the zwave button until the light turns solid red, release and it should flash red
1. (OR) Enter programming pin on lock -> 0 (this may take a few attempts, don't click the pair button)
If the lock ever disconnects you can safely delete it from home assistant and re-interview. It will
set back up with the correct entity IDs and automations/dashboards will work just fine.
### Philips Hue Lights
1. I configure all philips hue lights through zigbee directly connected to HA
hue lights support color_temp in mireds, here are some mired-kelvin conversions:
| Kelvin | Mired |
| ------ | ----- |
| 6000 | 167 |
| 4000 | 250 |
| 2600 | 385 |
### Shelly
1. Outbound Websocket `wss://homeassistant.reeseapps.com/api/shelly/ws`
Shelly devices can act as "passive" or "active" bluetooth scanners. Both of these configurations
allow home assistant to proxy bluetooth connections through shelly devices, significantly extending
the range of your home assistant's bluetooth capabilities. Active scanning uses more power but
is quicker to pick up and transmit device information. Note that "gateway mode" is not required,
just enable bluetooth and rpc or select "active" from the configuration menu for the shelly
device.
#### Barometer
<https://www.thoughtco.com/how-to-read-a-barometer-3444043>
A barometric reading over 30.20 inHg is generally considered high, and high pressure is associated with clear skies and calm weather.
If the reading is over 30.20 inHg (102268.9 Pa or 1022.689 mb):
- Rising or steady pressure means continued fair weather.
- Slowly falling pressure means fair weather.
- Rapidly falling pressure means cloudy and warmer conditions.
A barometric reading in the range of 29.80 and 30.20 inHg can be considered normal, and normal pressure is associated with steady weather.
If the reading falls between 29.80 and 30.20 inHg (100914.4102268.9 Pa or 1022.6891009.144 mb):
- Rising or steady pressure means present conditions will continue.
- Slowly falling pressure means little change in the weather.
- Rapidly falling pressure means that rain is likely, or snow if it is cold enough.
A barometric reading below 29.80 inHg is generally considered low, and low pressure is associated with warm air and rainstorms.
If the reading is under 29.80 inHg (100914.4 Pa or 1009.144 mb):
- Rising or steady pressure indicates clearing and cooler weather.
- Slowly falling pressure indicates rain.
- Rapidly falling pressure indicates a storm is coming.
A basic automation would look like
```yaml
It's {{ int(states("sensor.grouse_temp")) }} degrees and {{ states("weather.grouse_weather") }}. The relative humidity is {{ states("sensor.grouse_humidity") }}%. I'm seeing {{ int(states("sensor.grouse_wind_speed")) }}mph wind with gusts up to {{ int(states("sensor.grouse_wind_gust")) }}mph.
{% set pressure = float(states("sensor.grouse_rel_pressure")) %}
The barometer reads {{ pressure }}inHg.
{% if pressure > 30.20 %}
Fair weather is expected
{% elif pressure > 29.80 %}
Rain is possible
{% else %}
Rain is coming.
{% endif %}
```
#### Relative Humidity Calculator
<https://www.wikihow.com/Calculate-Humidity>
You can calculate the relative humidity of the outdoor air if warmed to indoor temperatures like so:
```jinja
{% set dew_point = state_attr("weather.forecast_home", "dew_point") %}
{% set air_temp_f = state_attr("climate.ecobee_thermostat", "current_temperature") %}
{% set air_temp = (5/9)*(air_temp_f-32) %}
{% set sat_vap_press = 6.11 * 10**((7.5*air_temp) / (237.3+air_temp)) %}
{% set act_vap_press = 6.11 * 10**((7.5*dew_point) / (237.3+dew_point)) %}
{% set rel_hum = 100*(act_vap_press / sat_vap_press) %}
{{ dew_point }}
{{ air_temp }}
{{ sat_vap_press }}
{{ act_vap_press }}
{{ rel_hum }}
```
### Font Colors
```html
<font color = {{ "green" if state_attr("climate.ecobee_thermostat", "current_humidity") > low_humidity and state_attr("climate.ecobee_thermostat", "current_humidity") < high_humidity else "red" }}>
HVAC Humidity: {{ state_attr("climate.ecobee_thermostat", "current_humidity") }}%
</font>
```

### Flair Vent Battery
Flair vents report low battery at 2.4v. 3v is nominal/full.
```yaml
{% set volt_min=2.4 %}
{% set volt_max=3.0 %}
{% set volt_diff_max=0.6 %}
{{ (min(float(states("sensor.main_bedroom_29bf_voltage")) - volt_min, volt_diff_max) / volt_diff_max) * 100 }}
```
## Voice
### Changing the Voice of TTS
Select a media player -> play TTS -> select voice -> copy voice ID.
```yaml
options:
voice: DavisNeural||chat
```
### Custom Sentences
<https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/voice/intent-recognition/template-sentence-syntax/#sentence-templates-syntax>
### Overriding Default Sentences
1. Identify if your sentence conflicts with [Home Assistant's default
sentences](https://github.com/OHF-Voice/intents/tree/main/sentences/en)
2. Create a new file at `/config/custom_sentences/en/overrides.yaml`
3. As an example, to override the `HassGetWeather` sentence:
1. Copy the contents of `weather_HassGetWeather.yaml` into `overrides.yaml`
2. Rename `HassGetWeather` to `HassGetWeather_Custom`
3. Delete the required context `weather`
4. Now in `configuration.yaml`, under a section called `intent_script`, add the following
```yaml
HassGetWeather_Custom:
speech:
text: >-
It's {{ int(states("sensor.backyard_weather_station_temp")) }} degrees
with {{ states("sensor.backyard_weather_station_humidity") }}% humidity.
I'm seeing {{ int(states("sensor.backyard_weather_station_wind_speed"))
}}mph wind. It's rained {{
int(states("sensor.backyard_weather_station_hourly_rain_rate")) }} inches
in the last hour.
```
5. Restart Home Assistant
6. Navigate to Settings -> Voice Assistants -> Click the 3 dots next to
your voice assistant -> Debug -> Click the icon in the top right -> Run
text pipeline -> "What's the weather"
## Notifications
Notification Information:
<https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/automation/templating/>
```yaml
Triggered by {{ trigger.entity_id }}, Date: {{ now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d') }}, Time: {{ now().strftime('%H:%M') }}
```
## Unifi Cameras
Create image/video previews of events with the following automation:
```yaml
alias: Vehicle Driveway Notification
description: Sends a notification with video upon motion detection.
triggers:
- entity_id:
- binary_sensor.driveway_camera_vehicle_detected
trigger: state
from: "on"
to: "off"
actions:
- data:
message: Vehicle detected on Driveway Camera
data:
image: >-
/api/unifiprotect/thumbnail/{{ config_entry_id(trigger.entity_id)
}}/{{ trigger.from_state.attributes.event_id }}
video: >-
/api/unifiprotect/video/{{ config_entry_id(trigger.entity_id) }}/{{
trigger.from_state.attributes.event_id }}
action: notify.notify
mode: single
max_exceeded: silent
```
## Multiple Entity Triggers with Custom Names
You can set an "id" for a trigger that can be used as a human readable name.
```yaml
alias: Notify when a Door Opened
description: ""
triggers:
- trigger: state
entity_id:
- binary_sensor.my_front_door
from: "off"
to: "on"
id: Front Door
- trigger: state
entity_id:
- binary_sensor.my_back_door
from: "off"
to: "on"
id: Back Door
- trigger: state
entity_id:
- binary_sensor.super_secret_door
from: "off"
to: "on"
id: Trap Door
conditions: []
actions:
- action: notify.notify
metadata: {}
data:
message: "{{ trigger.id }} Opened"
mode: single
```
## Philips Hue Switches
Philips Hue Switches don't expose entities, but rather trigger "zha_event" events.
To see events fired by these devices: Developer tools -> Events -> Listen to events `zha_event`
You can use this in automations like so:
```yaml
alias: Some Switch
description: ""
triggers:
- device_id: bb54b111ec77fb7d5356bb600789098f
domain: zha
type: remote_button_short_press
subtype: turn_on
trigger: device
id: "on"
- device_id: bb54b111ec77fb7d5356bb600789098f
domain: zha
type: remote_button_long_press
subtype: turn_on
trigger: device
id: on-con
conditions: []
actions:
- action: scene.turn_on
metadata: {}
data: {}
target:
entity_id: scene.some_scene
mode: single
```
## Datetimes
Stolen from Reddit
```yaml
## Set placeholder templates for reference in this template
## 'dt' substitutes 'now()'
## eg. if currently 5 March 2024 at 09:08:07 (AM)
eg_now = {% set eg_now = "2024-03-05 09:08:07.123456+00:00" %}{{ eg_now }}
dt = {% set dt = eg_now | as_datetime %}{{ dt }}
ts = {% set ts = eg_now | as_timestamp %}{{ ts }}
## Basic Time & Date Functions
time_now: {{ now() }}
time_local: {{ now() | as_local }}
time_timestamp: {{ now() | as_timestamp }}
## Time Conversions
seconds_per_min : {% set spm = 60 | int %}{{ spm }}
seconds_per_hour: {% set sph = ( spm * 60 ) | int %}{{ sph }}
seconds_per_day : {% set spd = 86400 | int %}{{ spd }}
seconds_per_week: {% set spw = ( spd * 7 ) | int %}{{ spw }}
minutes_per_day : {% set mpd = ( spd / 60 ) | int %}{{ mpd }}
minutes_per_week: {% set mpw = ( mpd * 7 ) | int %}{{ mpw }}
hours_per_week : {% set hpw = ( 24 * 7 ) | int %}{{ hpw }}
## Time Calculations
## with DATETIME use timedelta:
* CURRENT TIME : {{ dt }}
+ 1 YEAR : {{ dt + timedelta(days=365) }}
- 1 DAY (24H) : {{ dt - timedelta(days=1) }}
+ 3 DAYS (72H) : {{ dt + timedelta(days=3) }}
- 3 HOURS : {{ dt - timedelta(hours=3) }}
+ 1 HR 26 MIN : {{ dt + timedelta(hours=1, minutes=26) }}
+ 1D 2H 3M 4S : {{ dt + timedelta(days=1, hours=2, minutes=3, seconds=4) }}
## with TIMESTAMP use maths and then convert:
## Referencing earlier calculations for ease
* TIMESTAMP : {{ ts }}
* CURRENT TIME : {{ ts | as_datetime }}
+ 1 YEAR : {{ ( ts + (spd * 365) ) | as_datetime }}
- 1 DAY (24H) : {{ ( ts - spd ) | as_datetime }}
+ 3 DAYS (72H) : {{ ( ts + (spd * 3) ) | as_datetime }}
- 3 HOURS : {{ ( ts - (sph * 3) ) | as_datetime }}
+ 1 HR 26 MIN : {{ ( ts + sph + (spm * 26) ) | as_datetime }}
+ 1D 2H 3M 4S : {{ ( ts + spd + (sph * 2) + (spm * 3) + 4 ) | as_datetime }}
## Adjusting Time & Date For Calculations
Start Of Today: {% set start_today = dt.replace(hour=0, minute=0, second=0, microsecond=0) %}{{ start_today }}
End Of Today : {% set start_tomorrow = start_today + timedelta(days=1) %}{{ start_tomorrow }}
## Use Relative Time For DATETIME in the PAST
relative_time: {{ relative_time( start_today ) }} ago
## For time in the FUTURE you can use:
{% set current_time = dt %}{% set future_time = as_local(dt) %}{% set time_distance = future_time - current_time %}
relative_future: In {{ relative_time(current_time - time_distance) }}
## Use Time Templates combined with History Stats Sensor:
sensor:
- platform: history_stats
name: Lamp ON today
entity_id: light.my_lamp
state: "on"
```
