EZcontrol XS1

The EZcontrol XS1 integrationIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] for Home Assistant allows you to observe and control devices configured on the XS1 Gateway. Please have a look at the official documentation for using this gateway Bedienungsanleitung v3.0.0.0.

Configuration

Add the following entry to the configuration.yamlThe configuration.yaml file is the main configuration file for Home Assistant. It lists the integrations to be loaded and their specific configurations. In some cases, the configuration needs to be edited manually directly in the configuration.yaml file. Most integrations can be configured in the UI. [Learn more] file. After changing the configuration.yamlThe configuration.yaml file is the main configuration file for Home Assistant. It lists the integrations to be loaded and their specific configurations. In some cases, the configuration needs to be edited manually directly in the configuration.yaml file. Most integrations can be configured in the UI. [Learn more] file, restart Home Assistant to apply the changes. The integration is now shown on the integrations page under Settings > Devices & services. Its entities are listed on the integration card itself and on the Entities tab.

# Example configuration.yaml entry
xs1:
  host: "192.168.2.100"

The integrationIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] will automatically detect the configuration of the XS1 Gateway only on initialization which currently means when Home Assistant boots. When you change the configuration of the XS1 you (currently) have to restart Home Assistant to see the effects.

Configuration Variables

Supported device types

Note

This integrationIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] currently only covers part of the device types supported by the XS1 gateway, unsupported types are simply ignored.

Sensors

Any type of sensor is supported.

Note

If you are using climate devices the “current temp” sensor will be automatically used by the actuator (if named correctly). To make this work have a look at the actuator description below.

Actuators

Type Supported Notes
switch Yes
dimmer Partly Dimmers are currently handled like switches so actual dimming is not supported :(
temperature Yes

Climate actuator/sensor

Home Assistant can combine temperature sensors and climate actuators into a single device. The XS1 gateway does not allow this, but a sensor and actuator can be configured separately. To make Home Assistant register them in the same climate device just prefix the sensor name with the actuator name on the XS1 gateway configuration, f.ex:

  • Actuator device name: “Bedroom_Temp”
  • Sensor device name: “Bedroom_Temp_Sensor”
