Home Assistant

Brings everything you already have set up in Home Assistant to the Dashboard. It's read-only: the sensors and states come in, but Supercycler does not control HA equipment. It's that way on purpose — we don't want to promise you watering we can't guarantee.

  1. 01In Home Assistant open HACS → Custom repositories, paste the address the screen gives you, category Integration, install and restart.
  2. 02Go back to Supercycler and tap the button that generates the configuration. It gives you a string.
  3. 03In HA: Settings → Devices & services → Add integration → Supercycler, and paste that string.
  4. 04The entities start showing up. Assign each one to its zone, or combine it with equipment you already have.

The real Brain reads your sensors

This manual explains the app. Brain, inside it, answers about your tent: why your VPD spiked last night, whether that dryback is normal, what to change today.
