1. Installation - ramses-rf/ramses_cc GitHub Wiki

Install Home Assistant

Install either Hass OS, Hass or Container:

Install HACS

Install HACS using its install script:

Enable the HACS Integration:

If you have HA's official evohome (Honeywell TCC, https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/evohome/) integration already configured, you may wish to disable it: otherwise, you will see two climate entities for each Controller / Zone / DHW (this isn't necessarily a problem).

Add ramses_cc as a Custom Repository to HACS

Open your Home Assistant instance and open a repository inside the Home Assistant Community Store.

Now, check the documentation at: https://hacs.xyz/docs/faq/custom_repositories/

  • select HACS (side panel), Integrations
  • select the three-dots menu on the top-right, select Custom repositories
  • add the repo URL (https://github.com/ramses-rf/ramses_cc), Category is Integration
  • click the Add button, and close the window (X in top-right)

Add RAMSES RF as an Integration via HACS

  • select HACS (side panel), Integrations
  • click the Explore & Add Repositories button
  • search for 'ramses'
  • click on Ramses RF
  • click on Install this Repository in HACS, then Install
  • restart HA (the HA Core)

Completely install from scratch

  • remove the Ramses RF integration in the HACS add-on
  • restart HA
  • delete the ramses_cc file from the .storage folder. For this you may use the HA Terminal add-on, type cd /config/.storage/ to access the hidden dir and remove the ramses_cc file in there by typing rm ramses_cc
  • restart HA again
  • now install Ramses RF using HACS as described above
  • and restart HA...

After restart, you will not yet see any climate/sensor tiles added to the UI.

If you have successfully installed RAMSES RF and configured at least the correct serial connection to your RAMSES II gateway, you will see messages from ramses_cc in the HA logs.

Continue to RAMSES RF Configuration.
