OpenNetty Home Assistant Add-on

OpenWebNet/MQTT gateway for BTicino and Legrand home automation devices.

This add-on bridges OpenWebNet gateways to MQTT, enabling Home Assistant to control and monitor BTicino and Legrand devices via MQTT Discovery.

Supported protocols

• OpenWebNet/Zigbee - MyHome Play devices (via BTicino 3578 or Legrand 88328 Zigbee/USB gateway)
• OpenWebNet/Nitoo - In One by Legrand devices (via Legrand 88213 powerline/USB gateway)
• OpenWebNet/SCS - MyHome/MyHome Up devices (via BTicino F454 or MH202 SCS/Ethernet gateway)

Supported devices

The full list of supported BTicino and Legrand products can be found in the OpenNettyDevices.xml file.

Installation

1. Add this repository to your Home Assistant add-on store:

   

   Or manually add the repository URL:

   https://github.com/IsraelBenDavid/opennetty-core
   

2. Install the OpenNetty add-on from the store.

3. Configure the add-on (see below).

4. Start the add-on.

Configuration

MQTT

Option	Description	Required
mqtt_server	Hostname or IP of your MQTT broker (e.g. core-mosquitto)	Yes
mqtt_port	MQTT broker port (default 1883, or 8883 for TLS)	Yes
mqtt_username	MQTT broker username	Yes
mqtt_password	MQTT broker password	Yes

MQTT TLS (optional)

Option	Description
mqtt_tls_enabled	Enable TLS/SSL for the MQTT connection
mqtt_tls_ca_cert	CA certificate filename in the /ssl directory (e.g. ca.crt)
mqtt_tls_client_cert	Client certificate filename in the /ssl directory (e.g. client.crt)
mqtt_tls_client_key	Client private key filename in the /ssl directory (e.g. client.key)
mqtt_tls_server_host	Expected server hostname for TLS certificate validation

Gateways

Add your OpenWebNet gateways under the gateways list. Each gateway requires:

Option	Description	Required
brand	Legrand or BTicino	Yes
model	Gateway model number (e.g. 88328, F454)	Yes
serial_number	Serial number (or MAC address for TCP gateways, e.g. 00:03:50:A2:27:1B)	Yes
gateway_name	A friendly name for the gateway	Yes
gateway_type	Serial or Tcp	Yes
port	Serial port path (for Serial gateways)	Serial only
server	IP address (for TCP gateways)	Tcp only
password	Gateway password (for TCP gateways requiring authentication)	If required

General

Option	Description	Default
ha_discovery_culture	Language for HA discovery payloads (e.g. en, fr). Leave empty for system default.	empty
debug_logging	Enable detailed logging output for troubleshooting	false

Scan delay settings

These settings control the timing of the Zigbee discovery scan. Adjust them if you experience issues with device detection on busy networks.

Option	Description	Default
scan_retry_no_response_delay	Delay (ms) before retrying when no response is received	2000
scan_retry_error_delay	Delay (ms) before retrying after an error	3000
scan_inter_device_delay	Delay (ms) between querying each device	1000
scan_query_timeout	Timeout (ms) for waiting for a product info response	5000

Set any value to 0 to disable the delay.

How it works

Once configured and started, the add-on:

1. Connects to your OpenWebNet gateways (Serial or TCP).
2. Publishes MQTT Discovery payloads so Home Assistant automatically creates entities for all detected devices.
3. Bridges state changes and commands between OpenWebNet and MQTT in real time.
4. For Zigbee gateways, performs a discovery scan to automatically detect connected devices.

Devices appear automatically in Home Assistant under the MQTT integration - no additional configuration needed.

Troubleshooting

• Enable Debug Logging in the add-on configuration for detailed output.
• Check the add-on logs in the Home Assistant Supervisor panel.
• For Zigbee scan issues, try increasing the scan delay values.
• Ensure your MQTT broker (e.g. Mosquitto) is running and accessible.
