The LCN integration for Home Assistant allows you to connect to LCN hardware devices.
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 |
|---|---|---|
light | Light | |
switch | Switch or outlet | |
cover | Blind, garage door, window or door | |
climate | Thermostat | |
binary_sensor | Sensor (motion, contact, leak, smoke…) | |
sensor | Sensor (CO₂, humidity, light level, temperature) | |
scene | Scene (as a switch) |

Relais as motor output work fine by the way. Up and down commands (ON of output #1 / output #2) are send with a "ramp" of 8 seconds. That causes the outputs to dimm from 0% to 100% in 8 seconds. That is not expected. Seems that this issue was once resolved in 2024.9.0 but it seems still happen with my modules (I have only older modules). https://community.home-assistant.io/t/lcn-with-output-shutters/729746/1 Module firmware is 0D08xxxx and 0E09xxxxx ### What … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-23. | Issue #159204 · 2025-12 |
