The SCSGate {% term integration %} support the SCSGate device. This a home-brew device allows to interact with the MyHome system from BTicino/Legrande.

There is currently support for the following device types within Home Assistant:

• Cover
• Light
• Switch

To enable SCSGate in your installation, add the following to your {% term "configuration.yaml" %} file. {% include integrations/restart_ha_after_config_inclusion.md %}

# Example configuration.yaml entry
scsgate:
  device: PATH_TO_DEVICE

{% configuration %} device: description: The path to your device, e.g., /dev/ttyACM0. required: true type: string {% endconfiguration %}

How to find the scs_id for your devices

The SCSGate integration relies on the scsgate Python module.

This module provides also a command line tool called scs-monitor. This program can be used to find the IDs of your lights, switches and roller shutters and produce the YAML snippet to insert into your {% term "configuration.yaml" %} file.

For more information checkout this section of scsgate's documentation.

  - platform: scsgate
    devices:
      living_room:
        name: Living Room
        scs_id: XXXXX

{% configuration %} devices: description: A list of devices. required: true type: list keys: slug: description: Slug of the device. required: true type: list keys: name: description: Name to use in the frontend. required: true type: string scs_id: description: The ID of your SCSGate device. required: true type: string {% endconfiguration %}
