Arcam FMJ Receivers
arcam_fmj
The Arcam FMJ Receivers integration allows you to control Arcam Receivers and Processors from Home Assistant.
In Apple Home through HomeKit Bridge
What HomeKit Bridge makes of each kind of entity this integration creates, read from its source code. A device only gets the ones that apply to it.
| Entity | Shows up as | Note |
|---|---|---|
media_player | Receiver | Needs its own HomeKit Bridge in accessory mode |
binary_sensor | Sensor (motion, contact, leak, smoke…) |
What people report
