How to stop/start charging #152

Open morpheus12 opened 1 month ago

morpheus12 commented 1 month ago

Hi all,

i've successfully integrated my go-e gemini today in ha. Basicly everything runs well. Now i'm working on a dashboard for the charger. Here i would like to create a button for starting or stopping manually the charging process. Is that the force state functions (neutral = car decide, don't charge, charge)?

How can i activate the invisible buttons? grafik

Thx for reply

Click on the disabled entity (f.e. Force state neutral) -> Click the gear on the top right corner of the modal -> Turn the Enabled switch on + press the Update button. The entity will be enabled and available after a few seconds.

These buttons are disabled per default because there is a select entity called force state which is using the same API method.

Cool! Thanks @syssi for the info.

So these 3 buttons are used to stop/start and automate (car decide) the charging, right?
