The arduino sensor platform allows allow you to get an numerical values from an analog input pin of an [Arduino](https://www.arduino.cc/) board. Usually the value is between 0 and 1024.
|
|
|
|
To enable an Arduino sensor with Home Assistant, add the following section to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
sensor:
|
|
platform: arduino
|
|
pins:
|
|
1:
|
|
name: Door switch
|
|
type: analog
|
|
0:
|
|
name: Brightness
|
|
type: analog
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **pins** (*Required*): Array of pins to use. The number corresponds with the pin numbering schema of your board.
|
|
- **name**: Name that will be used in the frontend for the pin.
|
|
- **type**: The type of the pin. At the moment only 'analog' is supported.
|
|
|
|
The 6 analog pins of an Arduino UNO are numbered from A0 to A5.
