The `pilight` binary sensor platform implement the [pilight hub](/components/pilight/) binary sensor functionality. Two type of Pilight binary sensor configuration available. A normal sensor which send the on and off state cyclical and a trigger sensor which send only a trigger when an event happened (for example lots of cheap PIR motion detector).
|
|
|
|
To enable a Pilight binary sensor in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yml entry
|
|
binary_sensor:
|
|
- platform: pilight
|
|
variable: 'state'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **variable** (*Required*): The variable name in the data stream that defines the sensor value.
|
|
- **payload** (*Required*): Message payload identifiers. Only if all identifiers are matched the sensor value is set.
|
|
- **name** (*Optional*): Name of the sensor.
|
|
- **payload_on** (*Optional*): Variable `on` value. The component will recognize this as logical '1'.
|
|
- **payload_off** (*Optional*): Variable `off` value. The component will recognize this as logical '0'.
|
|
- **disarm_after_trigger:** (*Optional*): Configure sensor as trigger type.
|
|
- **reset_delay_sec** (*Optional*): Seconds before the sensor is disarmed if `disarm_after_trigger` is set to true. Default is 30 seconds.
|

A full configuration example could look like this:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yml entry
|
|
binary_sensor:
|
|
- platform: pilight
|
|
name: 'Motion'
|
|
variable: 'state'
|
|
payload:
|
|
unitcode: 371399
|
|
payload_on: 'closed'
|
|
disarm_after_trigger: True
|
|
reset_delay_sec: 30
|
|
```
