Got back multi point turn using home assistant automation
Hi
Like many of you, my lawn was getting destroyed by tank turns. For now, I found a workaround, assuming your firmware was not (auto) updated.
- Setup https://github.com/mikey0000/Mammotion-HA and connect (using a secondary account) to your mammotion
- This integration exposes 'turnaround_mode', with 2 values: zero_turn or multipoint
- Create an automation to always force this value to be multipoint:
alias: Force multipoint turn on Luba
description: ""
triggers:
- entity_id: select.luba_vpxyz_turnaround_mode
to: zero_turn
trigger: state
actions:
- target:
entity_id: select.luba_vpxyz_turnaround_mode
data:
option: multipoint
action: select.select_option
What I experience now is that every time I open the iOS app, the app forces the robot to go back to zero_turn mode. The automation then performs the override.
I'm now testing it, but seems to work. I also disabled the app/background refresh, and start the robot using the HA interface.
I know this is not a real solution, but for the time being, maybe it can help some people out.
