2018-06-01 18:10:00 +02:00
- **name** (**Required**, string): The name for the sensor.
- **address** (*Optional*, int): Manually specify the i^2c address of the sensor. Defaults to ``0x39``.
- **integration_time** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`):
The time the sensor will take for each measurement. Longer means more accurate values. One of
``14ms``, ``101ms``, ``402ms``. Defaults to ``402ms``.
- **gain** (*Optional*, string): The gain of the sensor. Higher values are better in low-light conditions.
One of ``1x`` and ``16x``. Defaults to ``1x``.
- **is_cs_package** (*Optional*, boolean): The "CS" package of this sensor has a slightly different
formula for calculating the illuminance in lx. Set this to ``true`` if you're working with a CS
package. Defaults to ``false``.
- **update_interval** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The interval to check the
2018-06-01 18:44:15 +02:00
sensor. Defaults to ``15s``. See :ref:`sensor-default_filter`.
2018-06-01 18:10:00 +02:00
- **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID used for code generation.
- All other options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>` and :ref:`MQTT Component <config-mqtt-component>`.
