Supported types

The adapter currently supports the following sensor types

Type	Functionality	more information
BinarySensor	You can use different types of binary sensors. These are automatically displayed in ioBroker and have several configuration options.	Binary Sensor Component (opens new window)
Climate	ESPHome supports air conditioners. Air conditioners can represent different types of hardware, but the crucial factor is that air conditioners have an adjustable target temperature and can be switched to different modes such as HEAT, COOL, AUTO or OFF.	Climate Component (opens new window)
Sensor	ESPHome supports many sensors. Each of them is a platform of the sensor domain, and each sensor has several basic configuration options.	Sensor Component (opens new window)
TextSensor	Text sensors are very similar to normal sensors. However, if the "normal" sensors only represent sensors that output numbers, this component can represent any text.	Text Sensor Component (opens new window)
Switch	The GPIO switch platform allows you to use any pin on your node as a switch. For example, you can connect a relay to a GPIO pin and use it through this platform.	GPIO Switch (opens new window)
