For those knowing more about HomeSeer please update this page.

About HomeSeer HS3 is the industry standard for flexible, powerful, home automation software. A wide selection of software drivers (plug-ins) is available for use with scores of home automation technologies and products.

The following forum link provides a guide to upload Tasmota to an S20 using SonOTA and integrate it with HomeSeer HS3.

Requirements for HomeSeer HS3 and Tasmota devices:

  • HomeSeer HS3
  • MQTT server
  • A MQTT plugin for HS3

Currently there are two plugins, both free: "MQTT" and "mcsMQTT". The former is more intuitive but hasn't been updated for a while, the latter is newer and constantly updated.

If you use "MQTT" plugin you need to synch the virtual device to reflect the status of the physical button, this can be done with a plugin:

  • EasyTrigger plugin - costs 25$ (used to synchronise the status of the virtual device in HomeSeer when the Sonoff Tasmota module is operated from the physical button)

If you use "mcsMQTT", starting from ver 3.0.3+ it allows to create a device that both report and control the status of the Sonoff. More info here: https://forums.homeseer.com/showthread.php?t=192675

Tasmota Plug-in

If your interested in a specific plug-in for Sonoff + Tasmota, which is currently in Beta then Instructions are HERE

This plug-in takes care of two-way updates so wall switches update Homseer devices and homeseer changes update Sonoff devices. The plug-in also takes care of monitoring sonoff availability and optionally flags homeseer devices as offline so events can take that into consideration before making changes. When devices come back online Homeseer is updated with the current status of the devices. The plug-in has so far been tested extensively with

  • Sonoff Basic
  • Sonoff Dual
  • Sonoff T1 (1, 2 & 3 Button)
  • Sonoff 4CH & 4CH Pro
  • Sonoff S20 Smart Socket

This plug-in is in beta and as such it's not guaranteed to work perfectly. Development is ongoing and there are already a number of beta testers using the plug-in successfully.
