Some entity IDs were renamed for consistency:
-
sensor.<nas>_fans_system_mode→sensor.<nas>_fan_mode -
button.<nas>_power_high_performance→button.<nas>_power_mode_high_performance -
button.<nas>_power_balanced→button.<nas>_power_mode_balanced -
button.<nas>_power_energy_saving→button.<nas>_power_mode_energy_saving -
button.<nas>_shutdown→button.<nas>_power_action_shutdown -
button.<nas>_wake_up→button.<nas>_power_action_wake_up -
button.<nas>_reboot→button.<nas>_power_action_reboot
If you use custom dashboards or automations, please update these entity IDs manually. The code of the pre-made dashboard on the Wiki has already been updated.
Three new buttons have been added to allow changing the NAS power settings (High Performance, Balanced, Energy Saving).
- Either use
Settings > Devices and Services > Ugreen NAS > [Your NAS]and add the entire block to your dashboard:
- ... or add your individual buttons as shown here as an example for the fanspeeds (it's working the same way, just use the new power mode buttons instead).
This was just overlooked before. Numeric entities will now generate statistics data through the recorder. To check out which entities are affected/available, go to Developer Tools > Statistics and filter for your NAS name (default: UGreen NAS, unless you changed it).
Note: Due to the short time the feature is available, I didn't test this extensively. It would be interesting to see how much a long-term statistics affects speed on slower systems.
Updated the Wiki
With the introduction of all those recent new and changed features, the Wiki became more and more outdated. Most of the documents have already been revised; what is left is the Fine-tuning the dashboard page, which still requires some more editing (on my ToDo list).
Preparations for next version of custom:button-card (see here)
The next version of custom:button-card (v7.1 is currently on beta 2), dashboards will be able to read Template YAML from a local files. This will make the creation of the example dashboard way easier - instead of copying hundreds of code lines, it just 2 lines to add into the RAM YAML. The rest is now done by the integration (delivery of the code, making code available to the dashboard etc). The template YAML is already in this release; all we need to change over is the release of the new button-card.
