The `velbus` switch allows you to control [Velbus](http://www.velbus.eu) connected switches.
To use your Velbus switches in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
light:
- platform: velbus
devices:
- name: Switch 1
type: single
module: 0xda
channel: 4
- name: Switch 2
type: double
module: 0xbc
open_channel: 1
close_channel: 2
```
Configuration variables:
- **devices** array (*Required*): The array contains the switches to configure
- **name** (*Required*): Name of the switch.
- **module** (*Required*): The hexadecimal module address
- **type** (*Required*): Either `single` or `double`. If single, only `channel` attribute is required. If double, both `open_channel` and `close_channel` attributes are required
- **channel** (*Required*): The channel number in the module.
For hub configuration, see [the Velbus component](/components/velbus/).
