pyduofern-hacs

This repository contains hacs integration for pyduofern.

As reported in #31 10-Digit codes recently announced by Rademacher are not supported as of now as the handshake/ protocol for these devices was not reverse engineered by anyone as far as I know.

You can use this repo with hacs

Setting up pyduofern in hacs

  1. In HACS->Integrations on the top right click on and select custom repositories.

  2. Add a repo with URL https://github.com/gluap/pyduofern-hacs and type integration

  3. Back in HACS->Integrations search for duofern

  4. In Homeassistant go to Configuration -> Integrations, click the + sign to add an integration and search for dufoern

  5. Complete the setup dialog

Setup with homeassistant core (no Homeassistant OS)

To use pyduofern within Homeassistant, add the custom_components from https://github.com/gluap/pyduofern-hacs to ~/.homeassistant/ directory and enable it by adding the following to your configuration.yaml::

duofern:
   # (4 hex digits as code required, last 4 digits if migrating from FHEM, 10 digit devices are not supported as of now)
   code: deda
   # Optional options, comment in if required:
   # serial_port: /dev/ttyUSB0
   #   # serial_port defaults to
   #   # /dev/serial/by-id/usb-Rademacher_DuoFern_USB-Stick_WR04ZFP4-if00-port0
   #   # which should work on most linuxes
   # config_file: ~/duofern.json
   #   # config_file defaults to duofern.json in homeassistant folder (assuming custom_component is used)

Usage

There are some services you can call via the service interface. A few of these to get you started:

duofern.start_pairing starts the pairing mode for a given number of seconds. After pairing reload the integration to make the new devices visible.

Pairing

duofern.ask_for_update

Ask duofern devices to re-send their state in case. Can be used in setups where RF is finnicky.

duofern.dump_device_state Dump the current last received state for all duofern modules as a warning level message to the log. This reflects the current state of all RF messages received from devices - What's not here wasn't received by the stick or came in garbled.

duofern.sync_devices Write the duofern config file with the known devices. normally not required from the user.
