Raspihats
The raspihats
integration is the base for all related Raspihats platforms in Home Assistant. There is no setup needed for the integration itself.
Binary Sensor
The raspihats
binary sensor platform allows you to read sensor values using the digital inputs of the raspihats boards.
Configuration
To use your raspihats
boards in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml
file:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
binary_sensor:
- platform: raspihats
i2c_hats:
- board: DI6acDQ6rly
address: 0x60
channels:
- index: 0
name: PIR Office
invert_logic: true
device_class: motion
- index: 1
name: PIR Bedroom
Configuration Variables
An array of used I2C-HATs.
Array of used digital input channels.
Sets the class of the device, changing the device state and icon that is displayed on the frontend.
Directions for installing smbus support on Raspberry Pi
Enable I2c interface with the Raspberry Pi configuration utility:
# pi user environment: Enable i2c interface
$ sudo raspi-config
Select Interfacing options->I2C
choose <Yes>
and hit Enter
, then go to Finish
.
Install dependencies for use the smbus-cffi
module and enable your homeassistant
user to join the i2c group:
# pi user environment: Install i2c dependencies and utilities
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential libi2c-dev i2c-tools python-dev libffi-dev
# pi user environment: Add homeassistant user to the i2c group
$ sudo usermod -a -G i2c homeassistant
Check the i2c address of the sensor
After installing i2c-tools
, a new utility is available to scan the addresses of the connected sensors, so you can see the sensor address:
/usr/sbin/i2cdetect -y 1
It will output a table like this:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f
00: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
10: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
20: -- -- -- 23 -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
30: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
40: 40 -- -- -- -- -- UU -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
50: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
60: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
70: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 77

Switch
The raspihats
switch platform allows you to control the digital outputs of your Raspihats boards.
Configuration
To use your Raspihats boards in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml
file:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
switch:
- platform: raspihats
i2c_hats:
- board: DI6acDQ6rly
address: 0x60
channels:
- index: 0
name: Fan Office
invert_logic: true
initial_state: true
- index: 1
name: Light Office
