Install & Configuration

This is a HA custom component.

Download the evohome_cc repo (note: CC) to custom_components\evohome_cc:

cd custom_components
git clone github.com/zxdavb/evohome_cc evohome_cc

Add something much like the following to your configuration.yaml (use your own controller id, not mine):

evohome_cc:
  scan_interval: 60
  serial_port: /dev/ttyUSB0
  packet_log: packet.log
  schema:
    controller: 01:145038
  ignore_list:
    - 13:237335
    - 01:032820
    - 12:207082
    - 12:227486

The controller is optional, but is recommended - you need to get your own controller ID from the evohome controller's UI.

The ignore_list is optional, but will help if your system picks up devices belonging to your neighbors.

Troubleshooting

Consider adding something like the following to you configuration.yaml:

logger:
  default: info  # otherwise too much logging
  logs:
    custom_components.evohome_cc: debug
    evohome_rf: warning

Then you can try: cat home-assistant.log | grep evohome
