@ -7,7 +7,13 @@ Endstop Cover
The ``endstop`` cover platform allows you to create covers with position control that have
endstops at both ends of the cover to detect the fully-open and fully-closed states.
When any of these endstops are reached, the cover stops and sends out the corresponding state.
When any of these endstops are reached, the cover is stopped (via ``stop_action``)
and the corresponding state is sent out.
This cover platform is mainly intended for DIY cover setups: Two endstops at either and a motor
controlling the cover. The user just needs to enter what to do when the platform wants to move the
cover in either direction, or stop it, as well as information about open and close information so that
the current position can be approximated.
Additionally, open and close durations can be specified to allow ESPHome to approximate the
current position of the cover.
