If the integration is not in the list, you need to clear the browser cache.

You can setup multiple integrations with different ewelink accounts.

Important. If you use the same account in different smart home systems, you will be constantly unlogged from everywhere. In this case, you need to create a second ewelink account and share your devices or home with it.

Problems: Hass + Hass, Hass + Homebridge, Hass + eWeLink app v3, etc. No Problems: Hass + eWeLink app v4, Hass + eWeLink addon Issues Before posting new issue:

Check the number of online devices on the System Health page Check warning and errors on the Logs page Check debug logs on the Debug page (must be enabled in integration options) Check open and closed issues Share integration diagnostics (supported from Hass v2022.2): All devices: Configuration > Integrations > Sonoff > 3 dots > Download diagnostics One device: Configuration > Devices > Device > Download diagnostics There is no private data, but you can delete anything you think is private.

Mode In auto mode component using both local and cloud connections to your devcies. If device could be reached via LAN - the local connection will be used. Otherwise the cloud connection will be used.

local mode or cloud mode will use only this type of connection.

Sometimes it can be difficult to get a local connection to work. You need a local network with working Multicast (mDNS/zeroconf) traffic between the Hass and your devices. Read about common problems.

Each time the integration starts, a list of user devices is loaded from cloud and saved locally (/config/.storage/sonoff/).

auto mode and local mode can work without Internet connection. If the integration fails to connect to the cloud - the component will use the previously saved list of devices and continue to work only in local mode. auto mode will continue trying to connect to the cloud.

local mode can't work without ewelink credentials because it needs devices encryption keys.

Devices in DIY mode can be used without ewelink credentials because their protocol unencrypted.

It is highly recommended that you use mode: auto and do not use mode: local or DIY mode. Because the local protocol is not always stable and you will get a bad experience. Devices may sometimes disappear from the network or fail to respond to local requests. Also some POW and TH devices cannot update their sensors without a cloud connection.

Debug page Enable debug page in integration options. Reload integrations page. Open: Integraion > Menu > Known issues.

Debug page shows only integration logs and removes some private data. You can filter log and enable auto refresh (in seconds).

If there is only one Home in the account, it shouldn't be a problem. Otherwise you can select one or multiple Homes to load devices from.

Configuration YAML These settings are made via YAML.

Important. DeviceID is always 10 symbols string from entity_id or eWeLink app.

Custom device_class You can convert all switches into light by default:

sonoff: default_class: light # (optional), default switch You can convert specific switches into light, fan or binary_sensor:

sonoff: devices: 1000xxxxxx: device_class: light name: Sonoff Basic 1000yyyyyy: device_class: fan name: Sonoff Mini You can convert multi-channel devices (e.g. Sonoff T1 2C):

sonoff: devices: 1000xxxxxx: device_class: [light, fan] name: Sonoff T1 2C 1000yyyyyy: device_class: [switch, light] name: MiniTiger 2CH You can convert multi-channel device (e.g. Sonoff T1 3C) into single light with brightness control:

sonoff: devices: 1000xxxxxx: device_class:

light: [1, 2, 3] name: Sonoff T1 3C You can control multiple light zones with single multi-channel device (e.g. Sonoff 4CH):

sonoff: devices: 1000xxxxxx: device_class:

switch: 1 # entity 1 (channel 1)
light: [2, 3] # entity 2 (channels 2 and 3)
fan: 4 # entity 3 (channel 4) name: Sonoff 4CH You can change device_class for Binary Sensor:

sonoff: devices: 1000xxxxxx: device_class: window You can change device_class for Cover:

sonoff: devices: 1000xxxxxx: device_class: shutter Custom devices sonoff: devices: 1000xxxxxx: name: Device name from YAML # optional rewrite device name host: 192.168.1.123 # optional force device IP-address devicekey: xxx # optional encription key (downloaded automatically from the cloud) Custom sensors If you want some additional device attributes as sensors:

sonoff: sensors: [staMac, bssid, host] Force update You can request actual device state and all its sensors manually at any time using homeassistant.update_entity service. Use it with any device entity except sensors. Use it with only one entity from each device.

As example, you can create an automation for forced temperature updates for Sonoff TH:

trigger:

platform: time_pattern minutes: '3' action:
service: homeassistant.update_entity target: entity_id: switch.sonoff_1000xxxxxx Preventing DB size growth Pow devices may send a lot of data every second. You can reduce the amount of processed data.

For multi-channel devices use power_1, current_2, etc.

sonoff: devices: 1000xxxxxx: reporting: power: [30, 3600, 1] # min seconds, max seconds, min delta value current: [5, 3600, 0.1] voltage: [60, 3600, 5] if new value came before min seconds - it will be "delayed" if new value came between min and max seconds if delta lower than delta value - it will be "delayed" otherwise - it will be used if new value came after max seconds - it will be used any used value will erase "delayed" value new "delayed" value will overwrite old one "delayed" value will be checked for the above conditions every 30 seconds Sonoff Pow Support power, current and voltage sensors via LAN and Cloud connections. Also support energy (consumption) sensor only with Cloud connection.

By default energy data loads from cloud every hour. You can change interval via YAML and add history data to sensor attributes (max size - 30 days, disable - 0). For multi-channel devices use energy_1, energy_2.

sonoff: devices: 1000xxxxxx: reporting: energy: [3600, 10] # update interval (seconds), history size (days)

template:

sensor:
- name: "10 days consumpion" unit_of_measurement: "kWh" state: "{{ (state_attr('sensor.sonoff_1000xxxxxx_energy', 'history') or [])|sum }}" You can also setup a integration sensor, that will collect energy data locally by Hass:

sensor:

platform: integration source: sensor.sonoff_1000xxxxxx_power name: energy_spent unit_prefix: k round: 2 Sonoff TH Support optional Climate entity that controls Thermostat. You can control low and high temperature values and hvac modes:

heat - lower temp enable switch, higher temp disable switch cool - lower temp disable switch, higher temp enable switch dry - change control by humidity with previous low/high switch settings In dry mode, the Thermostat controls and displays Humidity. But the units are displayed as temperature (Hass limitation).

Thermostat can be controlled only with Cloud connection. Main switch and TH sensors support LAN and Cloud connections.

Sonoff RF Bridge 433 RF Bridge support learning up to 64 signals (16 x 4 buttons).

Video HOWTO from @KPeyanski

Automatic Calls and Messages from Home Assistant, Sonoff RF Bridge and Smoke Detectors

Important. Integration v3 supports automatic creation of sensors for RF Bridge. All buttons will be created as Button entity. All alarms will be created as Binary sensor.

Both button and binary sensor has last_triggered attribute with the time of the last signal received. You can use it in automations.

Binary sensor will stay in on state during 120 seconds by default. Each new signal will reset the timer. Binary sensor support restore state between Hass restarts.

If you has door sensor with two states (for open and for closed state) like this one, you can config payload_off as in the example below. Also disable the timeout if you do not need it in this case (with timeout: 0 option).

You can use any device_class that is supported in Binary Sensor. With device_class: button you can convert sensor to button.

PIR Sensor

sonoff: rfbridge: PIR Sensor 1: # button/alarm name in eWeLink application device_class: motion timeout: 60 # optional (default 120), timeout in seconds for auto turn off Single State Sensor

sonoff: rfbridge: Door Sensor 1: # button/alarm name in eWeLink application name: Door Sensor # optional, you can change sensor name device_class: door # e.g. door, window timeout: 5 Dual State Sensor

sonoff: rfbridge: Sensor1: # button/alarm name in eWeLink application (open signal) name: Window Sensor # optional, you can change sensor name device_class: window # e.g. door, window timeout: 0 # disable auto close timeout payload_off: Sensor2 # button/alarm name in eWeLink application (close signal) You can read more about using this bridge in wiki.

Sonoff GK-200MP2-B Camera Currently only PTZ commands are supported. Camera entity is not created now.

You can send left, right, up, down commands with sonoff.send_command service:

script: left: sequence:

service: sonoff.send_command data: device: '012345' # use quotes, this is important cmd: left device - this is the number from the camera ID EWLK-012345-XXXXX, exactly 6 digits (leading zeros - it is important).

Common problems in only LAN mode auto mode and cloud mode users don't have these problems.

Devices are not displayed

not all devices supports local protocol two routers docker with port forwarding you must use: --network host hassio users are okay virtual machine with port forwarding you must use bridge virtual network mode (not NAT mode) Oracle VM VirtualBox linux firewall linux network driver incorrect network interface selected in Configuration > Settings > Global > Network The devices publish their data through Multicast DNS (mDNS/zeroconf), read more.

Devices unavailable after reboot

All devices unavailable after each Home Assistant restart. Devices are automatically detected in the local network after each restart. Sometimes devices appear quickly. Sometimes after a few minutes. If this does not happen, there are some problems with the multicast / router.

Raw commands The component adds the service sonoff.send_command to send low-level commands.

Example service params to single switch:

device: 1000xxxxxx switch: 'on' Example service params to multi-channel switch:

device: 1000xxxxxx switches: [{outlet: 0, switch: 'off'}] Example service params to dimmer:

device: 1000123456 cmd: dimmable switch: 'on' brightness: 50 mode: 0 Getting devicekey manually The average user does not need to get the device key manually. The component does everything automatically, using the ewelink account.
