@rejoe2 Thanks! I'll start there as see how I go. I am using Home Assistant and it has support for MySensors Covers.

Hi,

I'm really new to MySensors, and the first sensors I want are in my gate controller. This controls two swinging gates in my driveway. The controller is pretty well documented and will provide me with a very easy way to get the following 4 states:
OPEN
CLOSED
OPENING
CLOSING

I couldn't find a sensor type that would match these states very well? What would be the best way to go about this?

(I am familiar with Arduino coding, just not which Sensor types to use).

Thanks
