:description: LightWaveRF Switch Lights
:image: brightness-medium.svg
The LightWaveRF light platform creates a module to dump and send commands to light switches
LightwaveRF switches are very common in UK automation. They allow control of lights, sockets, relays and more via RF remote or via a hub. Using an inexpensive RF transmitter and receiver you can control your devices via ESPHome.
# Example configuration entry
# Specify the two pins to connect the receiver and transmitter
lightwaverf:
read_pin: GPIOXX
write_pin: GPIOXXNote: To gather the RAW codes from the remote, setup the read_pin and observe in the logs the printing of the codes.
- read_pin (Required, :ref:`Pin Schema <config-pin_schema>`): The pin that the receiver is connected to
- write_pin (Required, :ref:`Pin Schema <config-pin_schema>`): the pin that the transmitter is connected to
Send the raw data that has been captured via the dump system
on_...:
then:
- lightwaverf.send_raw:
code: [0x04, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0f, 0x03, 0x0d, 0x09, 0x08, 0x08]
name: "Sofa"
repeat: 1- name (Optional, string): The name to give for the action
- code (Required, list hex): The raw dump in an array of hex
- repeat (Optional, int): The number of times the message will be repeated
- inverted (Optional, boolean): Send the signal inverted
The RF transmitters/receivers listed below have been confirmed to work with the current code base. If you discover others that work, please let us know!
