:description: Instructions for setting up a Tuya dimmer switch.
|
|
:image: brightness-medium.png
|
|
|
|
The ``tuya`` light platform creates a simple brightness-only light from a
|
|
tuya serial component.
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
Some of these dimmers have no way of serial flashing without destroying them.
|
|
Make sure you have some way to OTA upload configured before flashing. This means you need
|
|
to have working wifi, ota, and maybe api sections in the config.
|
|
The dimmer switch I got would hang if the logger was configured to use the serial port
|
|
which meant it was bricked until I cut it open.
|
|
|
|
There are two components, the Tuya bus and the dimmer that uses it. The :doc:`/components/tuya`
|
|
component requires a :ref:`UART bus <uart>` to be configured. Put the ``tuya`` component in
|
|
the config and it will list the possible devices for you in the config log.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
# Example configuration entry
|
|
# Make sure your WiFi will connect
|
|
wifi:
|
|
ssid: "ssid"
|
|
password: "password"
|
|
|
|
# Make sure logging is not using the serial port
|
|
logger:
|
|
baud_rate: 0
|
|
|
|
# Enable Home Assistant API
|
|
api:
|
|
|
|
# Make sure you can upload new firmware OTA
|
|
ota:
|
|
|
|
# My dimmer used the hardware serial port on the alternate pins
|
|
uart:
|
|
rx_pin: GPIO13
|
|
tx_pin: GPIO15
|
|
baud_rate: 9600
|
|
|
|
# Register the Tuya MCU connection
|
|

|
Here is an example output for a Tuya dimmer:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: text
|
|
|
|
[21:50:28][C][tuya:024]: Tuya:
|
|
[21:50:28][C][tuya:031]: Datapoint 3: int value (value: 139)
|
|
[21:50:28][C][tuya:029]: Datapoint 1: switch (value: OFF)
|
|
|
|
On this dimmer, the toggle switch is datapoint 1 and the dimmer value is datapoint 3.
|
|
Now you can create the light.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
# Create a light using the dimmer
|
|
light:
|
|
- platform: "tuya"
|
|
name: "dim1"
|
|
dimmer_datapoint: 3
|
|
switch_datapoint: 1
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
- **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID used for code generation.
|
|
- **name** (**Required**, string): The name of the light.
|
|
- **dimmer_datapoint** (*Optional*, int): The datapoint id number of the dimmer value.
|
|
- **switch_datapoint** (*Optional*, int): The datapoint id number of the power switch. My dimmer
|
|
required this to be able to turn the light on and off. Without this you would only be able to
|
|
change the brightness and would have to toggle the light using the physical buttons.
|
|
- **min_value** (*Optional*, int, default 0): The lowest dimmer value allowed. My dimmer had a
|
|
minimum of 25 and wouldn't even accept anything lower, but this option is available if necessary.
|
|
- **max_value** (*Optional*, int, default 255): The highest dimmer value allowed. My dimmer had a
|
|
maximum of 255 which seems like it would be the typical value.
|
|
- All other options from :ref:`Light <config-light>`.
|
|
- At least one of *dimmer_datapoint* or *switch_datapoint* must be provided.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The MCU on the Tuya dimmer handles transitions and gamma correction on its own.
|
|
Therefore the ``gamma_correct`` setting default is ``1.0`` and the the
|
|
``default_transition_length`` parameter is ``0s`` by default.
