The rpi_rf switch platform allows you to control devices over 433/315MHz LPD/SRD signals with generic low-cost GPIO RF modules on a Raspberry Pi.

To use your Raspberry Pi with a 433MHz adaptor in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
switch:
  platform: rpi_rf
  gpio: 17
  switches:
    bedroom_light:
      code_on: 1234567
      code_off: 1234568
    ambilight:
      pulselength: 200
      code_on: 987654
      code_off: 133742

Configuration variables:

• gpio array (Required): Array of used ports.
• switches: (Required): Array of switches.
  • [name] (Requireld): If true, inverts the output logic to ACTIVE LOW. Default is false (ACTIVE HIGH).
    • code_on (Requireld): Code to switch the device on, eg. 987654.
    • code_off (Requireld): Code to switch the device off, eg. 133742.
    • pulselength (Optional): Length of the pulse
