This is a Denon AVR / Receiver Custom Component for Home Assistant that allows you to control a receiver through RS232. This custom component should support any Denon receiver with a serial port. This implementation was based off of the following integrations:
https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/blob/dev/homeassistant/components/media_player/denon.py https://github.com/joopert/nad_receiver/blob/master/nad_receiver/__init__.py
Setup:
-
If not present create the custom component folder structure under your Home Assistant config directory. config/custom_components/denon232/
-
Place
__init__.py, media_player.py and denon232_receiver.py in the denon232 folder under custom components folder. -
Add configuration details to configuration.yaml located in the config directory:
media_player:
- platform: denon232
serial_port: /dev/ttyUSB0
name: Receiver
The serial_port device referenced should be changed to match what is being used in your setup. In this setup a USB to serial converter was used through /dev/ttyUSB0. If USB is being used ensure Home Assistant has access to USB.
