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+, sensors are configured directly via the Home Assistant user interface.

Three types of sensors are available in the MyHOME integration:

1. Power and Energy Sensors (WHO = 18)

  • who: Optional, defaults to 18 for power/energy meters.
  • where:
  • For F520 meters: '5' followed by the sensor number ('51', '52', etc.).
  • For F522 meters: '7' followed by the sensor number ('71', '72', etc.).
  • class: Required, either power or energy.
  • Setting power: Creates a live power entity (in Watts) plus 3 energy counter entities (total kWh, daily kWh, and monthly kWh).
  • Setting energy: Creates energy counter entities without the live Watt display.

      where: '71'
      name: Washing machine
      class: power
      manufacturer: BTicino
      model: F522

2. Temperature Sensors (WHO = 4)

  • who: Optional, defaults to 4.
  • where: Zone number for main zone sensors (e.g. '1', '2'), or 3 digits for secondary temperature probes (e.g. '105' for the 1st secondary sensor in Zone 5).
  • class: Must be set to temperature.
f454:
  mac: '00:03:50:xx:xx:xx'
  sensor:
    bedroom_temperature:
      where: '1'
      name: Bedroom temperature
      class: temperature
      manufacturer: BTicino
      model: L4692
    secondary_probe:
      where: '105'
      name: Secondary Sensor Zone 5
      class: temperature
      manufacturer: BTicino
      model: 3455

3. Illuminance Sensors (WHO = 1)

  • who: Optional, defaults to 1.
  • class: Must be set to illuminance.
  • where: APL address of the sensor (must be configured in "scenario" mode).
f454:
  mac: '00:03:50:xx:xx:xx'
  sensor:
    office_illuminance:
      where: '0312'
