|
|
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 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 end 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 must be specified to allow ESPHome to approximate the
|
|
current position of the cover.

Configuration variables:
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
- **name** (**Required**, string): The name of the cover.
|
|
- **open_action** (**Required**, :ref:`Action <config-action>`): The action that should
|
|
be performed when the remote requests the cover to be opened.
|
|
- **open_duration** (**Required**, :ref:`config-time`): The amount of time it takes the cover
|
|
to open up from the fully-closed state.
|
|
- **open_endstop** (**Required**, :ref:`config-id`): The ID of the
|
|
:ref:`Binary Sensor <config-binary_sensor>` that turns on when the open position is reached.
|
|
|
|
- **close_action** (**Required**, :ref:`Action <config-action>`): The action that should
|
|
be performed when the remote requests the cover to be closed.
|
|
- **close_duration** (**Required**, :ref:`config-time`): The amount of time it takes the cover
|
|
to close from the fully-open state.
|
|
- **close_endstop** (**Required**, :ref:`config-id`): The ID of the
|
|
:ref:`Binary Sensor <config-binary_sensor>` that turns on when the closed position is reached.
|
|
|
|
- **stop_action** (**Required**, :ref:`Action <config-action>`): The action that should
|
|
be performed when the remote requests the cover to be closed or an endstop is reached.
|
|
- **max_duration** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The maximum duration the cover should be opening
|
|
or closing. Useful for protecting from dysfunctional endstops.
|
|
- **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID used for code generation.
|
|
- All other options from :ref:`Cover <config-cover>`.
