TellStick

The TellStick integration integrates TellStick devices into Home Assistant. This integration allows users to add switches, lights, and sensors which are communicating with 433 MHz. There are a number of vendors (Capidi Elro, Intertechno, Nexa, Proove, Sartano, and Viking) who are selling products that work with TellStick. For more details, please check the TellStick protocol list.

There is currently support for the following device types within Home Assistant:

Configuration

To get started, add the integration to your "configuration.yaml" file. :::tip 更改配置后需要重启 Home Assistant。 :::

# Example configuration.yaml entry
tellstick:

There is a TellStick app for Home Assistant (formerly known as TellStick add-on) available in the Home Assistant app store.

# Example configuration.yaml entry with the TellStick app
tellstick:
  host: core-tellstick
  port: [50800, 50801]
signal_repetitions:
  description: Because the TellStick sends its actions via radio and from most receivers it's impossible to know if the signal was received or not. Therefore you can configure the switch and light to try to send each signal repeatedly.
  required: false
  type: integer
  default: 1
host:
  description: If you run TellStick on another server or with the TellStick app for Home Assistant.
  required: inclusive
  type: string
port:
  description: Needed with the `host` configuration variable. Must be port pair, for example `[50800, 50801]`.
  required: inclusive
  type: list

Cover

This tellstick cover platform allows you to control your TellStick covers.

To use your TellStick device, you first have to set up your Tellstick hub and then add the following to your "configuration.yaml" file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
cover:
  - platform: tellstick

Light

This tellstick light platform allows you to control your TellStick dimmers.

To use your TellStick device, you first have to set up your Tellstick hub and then add the following to your "configuration.yaml" file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
light:
  platform: tellstick

Sensor

The tellstick sensor platform allows you to get current meteorological data from a TellStick device.

To use your TellStick device, you first have to set up your Tellstick hub and then add the following to your "configuration.yaml" file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: tellstick
sensor:
  description: "Entry for a sensor with the ID and its name, e.g., ID: Name."
  required: false
  type: string
only_named:
  description: Only add and include specified sensors. If this is not specified all sensors will be imported and the names will be based on each sensor's ID number.
  required: false
  default: false
  type: list
  keys:
    id:
      description: The ID-number of the sensor to include.
      required: true
      type: integer
    name:
      description: Specify the name of the selected sensor.
      required: true
      type: string
    protocol:
      description: The protocol that the sensor uses. Can be used if id isn't unique enough.
      required: false
      type: string
    model:
      description: The model that the sensor uses. Can be used if id and protocol isn't unique enough.
      required: false
      type: string
temperature_scale:
  description: The scale of the temperature value.
  required: false
  default: °C
  type: string
datatype_mask:
  description: Mask to determine which sensor values to show based on. Please check the [TellCore tellcore.constants documentation](https://tellcore-py.readthedocs.org/en/v1.1.2/constants.html#module-tellcore.constants) for details.
