The Global Caché [GC-100](https://www.globalcache.com/products/gc-100/) can be integrated into Home Assistant. GC-100 is a TCP-controllable
|
|
hardware device which has an array of relays, RS232 serial ports, and flexible ports which can be programmed to be either digital inputs or IR blaster outputs. There are a variety of submodels of the GC-100 which have different amounts of each I/O type.
|
|
|
|
Currently, only relays and ports configured to be digital inputs are supported in Home Assistant. For IR support, please use the iTach remote platform (https://home-assistant.io/components/remote.itach/), but note that it will likely not function concurrently on the same GC100 due to limitations in the TCP socket server implementation used by Global Caché.
|
|
|
|
To enable this device, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml`:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
gc100:
|
|
host: 192.168.1.114
|
|
port: 4998
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **host** (*Required*): The hostname/IP address of your GC100 device.
|
|
- **port** (*Optional*): The port on which the GC100 is listening.
