Home Assistant Just Add Power

A Home Assistant component for the Just Add Power HD over IP 2G/3G systems. Currently requires a supported Cisco switch configured with JADConfig.

Just Add Power component for Home Assistant Source list

Usage

  • Create a folder called custom_components/justaddpower.
  • Drop the files media_player.py and manifest.json into the custom_components/justaddpower directory.
  • Edit your configuration file to add the justaddpower platform.

Configuration

There are 3 sections required: switch, receivers and transmitters.

switch

The switch is polled on a regular basis to determine the current configuration, as well as to change sources. The min_refresh_interval determines how often. This can be different from scan_interval but setting a lower value will not override scan_interval. An example usage would be to allow image pull to happen frequently without overloading the switch with refresh requests.

Parameter Default Description Example
host (req) IP or hostname of the network switch myswitch1234
user (opt) cisco Username to log onto switch myuser
password (opt) cisco Password for switch mypass~1
rx_subnet (opt) 10.128.0.0 Receiver subnet 10.128.0.0
min_refresh_interval (opt) 10 How often to refresh receiver info from switch 10

transmitters

The transmitters are listed in the order they appear on the switch.

Parameter Default Description Example
name (req) Friendly name Cable Box
usb (opt) false Whether this transmitter has USB true
url (opt) URL to static image for transmitter - takes precedence over image_pull http://mydomain.com/myimg.jpg

receivers

The receivers are listed in the order they appear on the switch. The IP address is automatically determined and isn't normally required. However the option exists to override if the auto config doesn't work.

Parameter Default Description Example
name (req) Friendly name Master Bedroom
usb (opt) false Whether this receiver has USB true
ip_address (opt) IP address of switch mypass~1
image_pull (opt) false Display the image from the source true
image_pull_refresh (opt) 10 How often to refresh the source image 30
