Pironman U1 offers a Home Assistant addon, facilitating the use of Pironman U1 for Home Assistant users.
Note
The addon only supports direct installation of the Home Assistant system on Raspberry Pi, and does not support installing Home Assistant as a Docker container on a Raspberry Pi system.
For this scenario, please directly :ref:`install_spc`.
Now we will install the Pironman U1 addon for Home Assistant. Choose one of the following two methods to add it.
Please click the button below to quickly add it.
After visiting the link above, a popup will prompt to open a page in Home Assistant, click Open link.
Then, you will be prompted to add the Addon. Choose ADD.
After a few seconds, the Pironman U1 addon will appear.
Then, start (or restart) the addon.
Now you can select these options, such as Start on boot to enable Pironman U1 to start when the system boots up. Or Show in sidebar to show the dashboard specially designed for Pironman U1 in the sidebar.
Instructions for Powering On and Off:
- Power On: Press the button until the light turns green, indicating the system is powering on. You can then release the button.
- Shutdown: Press and hold the button for 2 seconds until the light turns purple, then release. When the power button's light begins to flash purple, the Raspberry Pi will receive a shutdown signal and proceed to shut down. The power button's light will turn off once the shutdown process is complete.
- Power Cut: If you haven't configured software on the Raspberry Pi, or for other reasons, you can opt for a power cut shutdown. Press and hold the button for 5 seconds and turns red, indicating a direct power cut. Be cautious with this method as it may damage data.
Alternatively, follow the steps below to install manually:
In Home Assistant, navigate to Settings -> Addons.
Navigate to the ADD-ON STORE tab.
In the top right corner, find and click on the Repositories button.
Type the repository URL:
https://github.com/sunfounder/home-assistant-addon-dev, and click ADD. After adding the SunFounder repository, close the popup window.
Click the menu button again, and click Check for updates.
After a few seconds, the Pironman U1 addon will appear at the end of the addon store. If not, try refreshing the page.
Enter the Pironman U1 addon and click INSTALL. This process may take a few minutes.
Then, start (or restart) the addon.
