The `openhardwaremonitor` platform uses your [Open Hardware Monitor](http://openhardwaremonitor.org/) installation as a source for sensors that will display system information.
To add Open Hardware Monitor to your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
- platform: openhardwaremonitor
host: IP_ADDRESS
```
{% configuration %}
host:
description: The IP address or hostname of the system where Open Hardware Monitor is running.
required: true
type: string
port:
description: The port of your Open Hardware Monitor API. Defaults to 8085.
required: false
type: int
{% endconfiguration %}
<p class='note'>
OpenHardwareMonitor must be running on the host, with "Remote web server" active.
You also need to open an inbound port for (TCP 8085) in the advanced firewall settings.
