Binary Sensors Configuration (v0.9.x YAML)

[!WARNING] Legacy Configuration: This page describes manual YAML configuration in /config/myhome.yaml used by MyHOME v0.9.x. In MyHOME v2.0+, binary sensors are configured directly via the Home Assistant user interface.

Three types of binary sensors are supported:

---

1. Dry Contacts (WHO = 25)

Dry contact interfaces (such as 3477) monitor physical magnetic door/window reed contacts, technical alarms, and pushbuttons:

• who: Optional (defaults to 25).
• where: Always '3' followed by the sensor number ('31', '32', etc.).
• class: Highly recommended; any valid Home Assistant device_class (e.g. door, window, garage_door, moisture, smoke).

f454:
  mac: '00:03:50:xx:xx:xx'
  binary_sensor:
    garage_door:
      where: '31'
      name: Garage door
      class: garage_door
      manufacturer: BTicino
      model: 3477
    front_door:
      where: '32'
      name: Front door
      class: door
      manufacturer: BTicino
      model: 3477

2. Motion Sensors (WHO = 1)

Light and motion sensors configured in "scenario" mode:

• who: Must be '1'.
• where: 4-digit APL address (e.g. '0312').
• class: Must be 'motion'.

f454:
  mac: '00:03:50:xx:xx:xx'
  binary_sensor:
    office_motion:
      who: '1'
      where: '0312'
      name: Office Motion
      class: motion
      manufacturer: Legrand
      model: 048822

3. Auxiliary Sensors from Burglar Alarm (WHO = 9)

Sensors connected to auxiliary inputs of the alarm system:

• who: Must be '9'.
• where: Auxiliary input number ('0' through '9').
• class: Home Assistant device_class (e.g. motion, smoke, gas).

f454:
  mac: '00:03:50:xx:xx:xx'
  binary_sensor:
    living_room_pir:
      who: '9'
      where: '1'
      name: Motion Living Room
      class: motion
      manufacturer: BTicino
      model: L4610
