Vacuum object #

Name Type Default Example Description
advanced_view string false ‘true’ Enable advance view (read below)
entity string Required vacuum.rockrobo entity_id
camera string Not required camera.rockrobo_map If you have rooted your roborock paste the camera here.

Example for vacuum inside a room:

    vacuum: 
      advanced_view: 'true'
      entity: vacuum.rockrobo
      camera: camera.rockrobo_map

The advanced view loads an custom lovelace card with a live map (if you have a camera entity) or some nice animation of your vacuum.

To enable this advanced view, put advanced_view: 'true' in your vacuum config.

Go to HACS and install the plugin Vacuum card (by denysdovhan) and add the following code to your custom_resources.yaml (look here for instructions on how to do this):

- type: module
  url: /hacsfiles/vacuum-card/vacuum-card.js
