Switcher
switcher_kis
The Switcher integration allows you to control your Switcher Devices.
In Apple Home through HomeKit Bridge
What HomeKit Bridge makes of each kind of entity this integration creates, read from its source code. A device only gets the ones that apply to it.
| Entity | Shows up as | Note |
|---|---|---|
light | Light | |
switch | Switch or outlet | |
cover | Blind | |
climate | Thermostat | |
sensor | Sensor (temperature) | |
button | Button (as a switch) |
What people report
Switcher devices are local push; discovery depends on network setup (2.4GHz, same VLAN). Runner S11 and S12, Breeze supported.
