Adding more VTOs

[DNA99]

Sorry im not familiar with YAML at all. How do I add an additional VTO?

[Moose-Gaming]

Just copy the config and modify the details:

• platform: dahua_vto name: Dahua VTO2 host: YOUR SECOND VTOs IP username: YOUR SECOND VTOs USERNAME password: YOUR SECOND VTOs PASSWORD

GitHub makes the - symbol a dot, so replace the dot with - and you'll be fine.

Of course, please do not delete the YAML for your first VTO. Add this one under it.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply. How about the unlock portion? How do I place the values there for the 2nd VTO?

@DNA99 In unlock you just need to specify entity_id of another VTO. If for new VTO you use name "Dahua VTO2" than you should have sensor sensor.dahua_vto2, so use it instead entity_id: sensor.dahua_vto. Sure you will need to create the new timer and change event listener where it's starts this timer.

In event handler you will also get entity_id field in each event comes from VTOs, you can see all event fields in Home Assistant menu Developer Tools -> Events, just start listen for dahua_vto events.

If you you are new for YAML and it's look over complicated than you can try to use this integration. Personally I suggest to learn YAML configuration because it's will gives you much more possibilities in home automation.
