Lupus Electronics LUPUSEC
lupusec
The Lupus Electronics LUPUSEC integration allows the user to integrate their Lupusec alarm control panel and ultimately all connected sensors and other devices. For more information about the LUPUS-Electronics security system please visit their website.
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 |
|---|---|---|
switch | Switch or outlet | |
alarm_control_panel | Security system | |
binary_sensor | Sensor (motion, contact, leak, smoke…) |
What people report
