A custom component that integrates Q-Sys Core Devices with Home Assistant via QRC. This is useful to expose elements such as gain controls, mute buttons and different media players to HA.

• media_player platform:

  • Media Stream Receivers/ URL Receivers
    • On/Off (Enable/Disable)
    • Mute control
    • Volume control (stereo channels)
    • Browse media
    • Play media
  • Audio Player / Audio File Player
    • On/Off (Enable/Disable)
    • Mute control
    • Volume control
    • Browse media (files on the Core)
    • Play media (files on the Core)
    • Seek
    • Loop on/off

• number platform:

  • Value controls (e.g gains)
    • Direct control (setting Value directly)
    • Position control (0.0 to 1.0)
    • Custom mapping via templated changes/values.

• sensor platform:

  • EngineStatus exposed to HA
  • Any component control

• switch platform:

  • Any float/int/bool where 1.0/1/True is considered on respectively
  • Toggling.

• text platform:

  • String controls.

• services:

  • Invoking methods on the device via QRC (see Services section below)

Add the custom component via your custom_components folder or via HACS (untested).

1. Install HACS
2. Open HACS in the sidebar and go to "Integrations".
3. Press the three dots in the top right corner and select "Custom repositories"
4. Fill in the form with Repository: https://github.com/nkvoll/home-assistant-qsys-qrc, Category: Integration and click "Add".
5. Once it's added, you can search for q-sys qrc, click the integration and select "Download".
6. Restart Home Assistant ("Settings" -> three dots top right corner -> "Restart Home Assistant")
7. In the HA UI go to "Configuration" -> "Devices & Services" click "+ Add Integration" (bottom right corner) and search for "Q-Sys QRC Integration"

1. Using the tool of choice open the directory (folder) for your HA configuration (where you find configuration.yaml).
2. If you do not have a custom_components directory (folder) there, you need to create it.
3. In the custom_components directory (folder) create a new folder called qsys_qrc.
4. Download all the files from the custom_components/qsys_qrc/ directory (folder) in this repository.
5. Place the files you downloaded in the new directory (folder) you created.
6. Restart Home Assistant ("Settings" -> three dots top right corner -> "Restart Home Assistant")
7. In the HA UI go to "Configuration" -> "Devices & Services" click "+ Add Integration" (bottom right corner) and search for "Q-Sys QRC Integration"

First, set up the integration through the UI to configure the core name and credentials.

To expose component controls to HA, configure them via the configuration file (configuration.yaml).

See the example configuration for an example of what can be configured.

In order to find the right component and control names, use the Q-Sys Designer. To find the right control name, open the design file and use “Tools → View Component Controls Info” then select your component. See example screenshot.

Used to call any method via QRC Commands:

service: qsys_qrc.call_method
data:
  method: Component.Set
  params:
    Name: bathroom_f2_gain
    Controls:
      - Name: gain
        Position: 0.5
        Ramp: 2
target:
  device_id: 7b7be23f1d37293589c28bee4dbb5b4d

service: qsys_qrc.call_method
data:
  method: Component.Set
  params:
    Name: bathroom_f2_gain
    Controls:
      - Name: mute
        Value: true
target:
  device_id: 7b7be23f1d37293589c28bee4dbb5b4d

• Add (more) tests, especially around the code that integrates with home-assistant itself, see pytest-homeassistant-custom-component to get started.
• Share the integration on the Home Assistant Forum.
