Homematic for Home Assistant (built-in integration)

About

Homematic is a built-in integration that connects Home Assistant to Homematic hubs and their devices over the local network. It provides binary sensors, climate devices, covers, lights, locks, notifiers, sensors and switches. Several actions allow manual control, including setting a device value, changing a device paramset and setting the value of a system variable. Another action simulates a keypress on CCU or Homegear using virtual or device keys. The integration can also reconnect to all hubs and put an RPC XML interface into installation mode. Setup is done in the configuration file.
