## Integration options
It is possible to change some behaviors through the integration options.
To change the settings, go to {% my integrations title="**Settings** > **Devices & Services**" %}. Select the **Ping** integration, then select **Configure**.
- **Ping count**: Number of echo requests to send to the target. The default is 5.
- **Consider home**: Number of seconds that must elapse before considering a disconnected device "not at home". The default is 180 seconds (3 minutes).
## Binary sensor
The `ping` binary sensor platform allows you to use `ping` to send ICMP echo requests. This way you can check if a given host is online and determine the round trip times from your Home Assistant instance to that system.
