UART Switch¶
The uart
switch platform allows you to send a pre-defined sequence of bytes on a
UART bus when triggered.
# Example configuration entry
switch:
- platform: uart
name: "UART String Output"
data: 'DataToSend'
- platform: uart
name: "UART Bytes Output"
data: [0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF]
- platform: uart
name: "UART Recurring Output"
data: [0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF]
send_every: 1s
- platform: uart
name: "UART On/Off"
data:
turn_on: "TurnOn\r\n"
turn_off: "TurnOff\r\n"
Configuration variables:¶
uart_id (Optional, ID): Manually specify the ID of the UART hub.
data (Optional, string or list of bytes): The data to send via UART. Either an ASCII string or a list of bytes or one or both of the following nested options (see example above).
turn_on (Optional, string or list of bytes): The data to send when turning on.
turn_off (Optional, string or list of bytes): The data to send when turning off.
send_every (Optional, Time): Sends recurring data instead of sending once.
All other options from Switch.
