Does anyone have some examples of their automation to make the piezo buzzer chime when the door opens/closes? I can get the buzzer to chime when the door opens but having difficulty getting it to shut off.
Greg,
Here is the automation I was using with the delay. It was set to play the chime for 2 seconds, however in reality it was always something like 5 seconds. However, it became unreliable, and I would have to turn the chimes off manually,
- id: '1531025654050'
alias: Opened Door
trigger:
- entity_id: group.doors
from: 'off'
platform: state
to: 'on'
condition: []
action:
- data:
entity_id: group.alarm_chimes
service: switch.turn_on
- delay: 00:00:02
- data:
entity_id: group.alarm_chimes
service: switch.turn_off
I posted a message on the other thread with what I am doing now.
Hope this helps, and maybe someone has a better way to do it than me.
Here’s how I built my automation for door-open chimes using the Konnected Piezo on Out1. Works well and is easily configurable.
When
Add Trigger: Entity for the doors you want to have chime. Multiple drops down menus will become available.
Set the From state Closed, and To state Open
I left For blank, as this just creates a delay before the beeps begin.
And If
Add Condition: Alarmo (in my case) is disarmed
Then do
Add Action: Light Turn on Alarm Panel Pro
Add Action: Delay for x time (I used 1 second, which is good for 4-45 beeps). Note, you’ll have to search for Delay as an Action, but it comes right up.
Add Action: Turn light off on Alarm Panel Pro
