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:
|
||||

### 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

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.
