The `rflink` integration supports devices that use [RFLink gateway firmware](https://www.rflink.nl/download.php), for example the [Nodo RFLink Gateway](https://www.nodo-shop.nl/21-rflink-). RFLink gateway is an Arduino firmware that allows two-way communication with a multitude of RF wireless devices using cheap hardware (Arduino + transceiver).
First, you have to set up your [RFLink hub](/integrations/rflink/).
The RFLink integration does not know the difference between a `binary_sensor`, a `switch` and a `light`. Therefore all switchable devices are automatically added as `light` by default.
RFLink binary_sensor/switch/light ID's are composed of: protocol, id, switch/channel. For example: `newkaku_0000c6c2_1`.
Once the ID of a binary sensor is known, it can be used to configure it as a binary sensor type in Home Assistant, for example, to hide it or configure a nice name.
Configuring a device as a binary sensor:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
binary_sensor:
- platform: rflink
devices:
pt2262_00174754_0: {}
```
{% configuration %}
devices:
description: A list of binary sensors.
required: false
type: list

rflink_ids:
description: RFLink ID of the device
required: true
type: map
keys:
name:
description: Name for the device.
required: false
default: RFLink ID
type: string
aliases:
description: Alternative RFLink ID's this device is known by.
required: false
type: list
device_class:
description: Sets the [class of the device](/integrations/binary_sensor/), changing the device state and icon that is displayed on the frontend.
required: false
type: string
off_delay:
description: For sensors that only sends 'On' state updates, this variable sets a delay after which the sensor state will be updated back to 'Off'.
required: false
type: integer
force_update:
description: Sends update events even if the value has not changed. Useful for sensors that only sends `On`.
required: false
type: boolean
default: false
{% endconfiguration %}
### Sensor state
Initially, the state of a binary sensor is unknown. When a sensor update is received, the state is known and will be shown in the frontend.
### Device support
See [device support](/integrations/rflink/#device-support)
### Additional configuration examples
Multiple sensors with custom name and device class and set off_delay
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
binary_sensor:
- platform: rflink
devices:
pt2262_00174754_0:
name: PIR Entrance
device_class: motion
off_delay: 5
pt2262_00174758_0:
name: PIR Living Room
device_class: motion
off_delay: 5
```

This configuration uses `0a0a0a` to control the inverted shutter (send UP to close and Down to open) and listen commands sent by `0f1f2f` remote control.
### Device support
Even though a lot of devices are supported by RFLink, not all have been tested/implemented. If you have a device supported by RFLink but not by this integration please consider testing and adding support yourself.
