Lights configuration

Laurens edited this page Sep 9, 2026 · 2 revisions

For the lights, the only variation compared to the generic device elements is the dimmable option.
dimmable is an optional boolean defaulting to False that you need to set to True if your device supports dimming. (Only "F418" and "F418U2" DIN modules seem to do to this day)

Configuration example

  light:
    garage:
      where: '01'
      name: Garage
      dimmable: False
      manufacturer: Arnould
      model: 64391
    dining_room:
      where: '17'
      name: Dining room
      dimmable: False
      manufacturer: BTicino
      model: F411U2
    main_bedroom_1:
      where: '23'
      interface: '02'
      name: Main bedroom
      dimmable: True
      manufacturer: BTicino
      model: F418

⏱️ Native Bus Timers (Temporized Lights)

MyHOME light actuators can run hardware timers directly on the SCS bus. Instead of keeping software delay timers active in Home Assistant (which risk leaving lights ON if Home Assistant restarts or reconnects), you can send native timed turn-on commands (WHAT = 11..18 or Dimension = 2).

See the complete guide and frame syntax in Advanced Uses: Native Bus Timers.
