Before you can use the IHC Binary Sensor platform, you must setup the IHC Component.

When auto setup is enabled the following products will be found in the IHC project and setup as binary sensors:

• Dataline magnet contacts
• Dataline Pir sensors
• Dataline Pir sensors with twilight detection
• Dataline Pir alarm sensor
• Dataline smoke detector
• Dataline gas detector
• Dataline light sensor

{% linkable_title Manual configuration %}

To manually configure IHC Binary Sensors insert the "binary_sensors" section in your IHC configuration:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
ihc:
  - url: 'http://192.168.1.3'
    username: YOUR_USERNAME
    password: YOUR_PASSWORD
    info: true
    binary_sensors:
      - id: 12345
        name: switch_front_door
        inverting: false
        note: Magnet contact
        position: Switch in door
        type: door

{% configuration %} binary_sensors: description: List of binary sensors to setup manually. required: false type: map keys: id: description: The IHC resource id. required: true type: integer inverting: description: If True the sensor will be inverted. required: false type: boolean default: false name: description: The name of the sensor. required: false type: string type: description: > The binary sensor type. See Home Assistant binary sensor for available types. required: false type: string note: description: Descriptive note required: false type: string position: description: Where is it placed required: false type: string {% endconfiguration %}

The resource id should be an id of a boolean IHC resource. For more information about IHC resource ids see Manual Setup.
