The EZcontrol XS1 integration for Home Assistant allows you to observe and control devices configured on the XS1 Gateway. Please have a look at the official docs for using this gateway Bedienungsanleitung v3.0.0.0.

{% linkable_title Configuration %}

Add the following entry to the configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
xs1:
  host: "192.168.2.100"

The component will automatically detect the configuration of the XS1 Gateway only on initialization which currently means when Home Assistant boots. When you change the configuration of the XS1 you (currently) have to restart Home Assistant to see the effects.

{% configuration %} host: description: Host of the XS1 Gateway. required: true type: string port: description: Custom port if you are running your gateway behind some kind of proxy. required: false type: integer default: 80 ssl: description: Defines if https should be used for API requests (only possible via your own proxy). required: false type: boolean default: false username: description: User to access XS1 web API. required: false type: string password: description: Password to access XS1 web API. required: false type: string {% endconfiguration %}

{% linkable_title Supported Device Types %}

This component currently only covers part of the device types supported by the XS1 gateway, unsupported types are simply ignored.

{% linkable_title Sensors %}

Any type of sensor is supported.

If you are using climate devices the "current temp" sensor will be automatically used by the actuator (if named correctly). To make this work have a look at the actuator description below.

{% linkable_title Actuators %}

Type Supported Notes
switch Yes
dimmer Partly Dimmers are currently handled like switches so actual dimming is not supported :(
temperature Yes

{% linkable_title Climate Actuator/Sensor %}

Home Assistant can combine temperature sensors and climate actuators into a single device. The XS1 gateway does not allow this, but a sensor and actuator can be configured separately. To make Home Assistant register them in the same climate device just prefix the sensor name with the actuator name on the XS1 gateway configuration, f.ex:

  • Actuator device name: "Bedroom_Temp"
  • Sensor device name: "Bedroom_Temp_Sensor"

{% linkable_title Examples %}

In this section, you find some real-life examples of how to use this component.

{% linkable_title Full configuration %}

This example shows how you can use the optional configuration options.

# Example configuration.yaml entry
xs1:
  host: "192.168.2.100"
  port: 80
  ssl: false
  username: myuser
  password: 123totallySecure
