The knx sensor platform allows you to monitor KNX sensors.

The knx integration must be configured correctly, see KNX Component.

Configuration

To use your KNX sensor in your installation, add the following lines to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: knx
    name: Heating.Valve1
    address: '2/0/0'

{% configuration %} address: description: KNX group address of the sensor. required: true type: string name: description: A name for this device used within Home Assistant. required: false type: string type: description: A type from the following table can be defined. The DPT of the group address should match the expected KNX DPT to be parsed correctly. required: false type: string {% endconfiguration %}

type	unit	expected KNX DPT
