ipx800v4 component for Home Assistant

This a custom component for Home Assistant. The ipx800v4 integration allows you to get information and control the IPX800 v4 and its extensions.

🇫🇷

Installation

HACS

HACS > Integrations > Explore & Add Repositories > GCE IPX800 V4 > Install this repository

Manually

Copy custom_components/ipx800 in config/custom_components of your Home Assistant (you must have *.py files in config/custom_components/ipx800v4). Add the ipx800v4 entry in your configuration.yml (see example below).

The IPX800 must be available during Home Assistant start. If you have an other home automation system which query the IPX800, like Jeedom, disable it during start to ensure it will respond to requests.

Description

You can control by setting the type of the device:

• relay as switch and light or climate (with https://www.gce-electronics.com/fr/nos-produits/314-module-diode-fil-pilote-.html)
• virtualout as switch and binarysensor
• virtualin as switch
• digitalin as binarysensor
• analogin as sensor
• virtualanalogin as sensor or number
• xdimmer as light
• xeno as sensor
• xpwm as light
• xpwm_rgb as light (use 3 xpwm channels)
• xpwm_rgbw as light (use 4 xpwm channels)
• x4vr as cover
• x4vr_bso as cover with BSO/tilt support
• xthl as sensors
• x4fp as climate
• counter as sensor or number

Push data from the IPX800

First, if you want to push data from your IPX800, you have to set a password on push_password config parameter. Then in your IPX800 PUSH configuration, in the Identifiant field, set : ipx800:mypassword.

By calling the URL /api/ipx800v4_refresh/on from the IPX800, you ask a state refresh from all IPX800 entities.

You can update value of a entity by set a Push command in a IPX800 scenario. Usefull to update directly binary_sensor and switch. In URL ON and URL_OFF set /api/ipx800v4/entity_id/state:

You can update values of multiple entities with one request (see official wiki: https://wiki.gce-electronics.com/index.php?title=API_V4#Inclure_des_.C3.A9tiquettes_dans_les_notifications_.28mail.2C_push_et_GSM.29)

You have to set the entity_id=$XXYY separate by a &, example : /api/ipx800v4_data/binary_sensor.presence_couloir=$VO005&light.spots_couloir=$XPWM06.

Finally, you can also push the states of all IPX entities directly and without naming them using bulk update. For example to update all relays from the IPX800v4 : /api/ipx800v4_bulk/relay/$R.

The labels tested are as follows:

• Relays: /api/ipx800v4_bulk/relay/$R
• Digital In: /api/ipx800v4_bulk/digitalin/$D
• Virtual In: /api/ipx800v4_bulk/virtualin/$VI
• Virtual Out: /api/ipx800v4_bulk/virtualout/$VO

See official wiki for more information.

In case you have multiple IPX entries in your configuration, you can specify the name of the IPX in the route: /api/ipx800v4_bulk/<MY_IPX_NAME>/relay/$R.

This parameter in the URL is also available for each routes described above:

• /api/ipx800v4_refresh/<MY_IPX_NAME>/on : you request a status update to all entities of the IPX800 named "MY_IPX_NAME"
• /api/ipx800v4/<MY_IPX_NAME>/entity_id/state : you update the status of the "entity_id" on the IPX named "MY_IPX_NAME"
• /api/ipx800v4_data/<MY_IPX_NAME>/binary_sensor.presence_couloir=$VO005&light.spots_couloir=$XPWM06 : you update the statuses of several entities on the IPX named MY_IPX_NAME
• /api/ipx800v4_bulk/<MY_IPX_NAME>/relay/$R : you update the statuses of all relays on the IPX named MY_IPX_NAME
