Custom component for Sentiotec sauna controller for integration in Home Assistant
In order to connect the Sentio Pro sauna controller you need a serial port with RS-485 interface on the server running Home Assistant. On Linux based machines the serial port is typically called /dev/ttyUSB0.
The user running Homeassistant should be added to group dialout - not needed if user is root.
