Unignore Parameters

The integration maintains lists of parameters that are filtered out when entities are created. This filtering provides a cleaner user experience by hiding technical or rarely-used parameters.

For advanced users who need access to these hidden parameters, the unignore mechanism allows you to make specific parameters visible as entities.

Note

For definitions of terms like Parameter, Channel, and Paramset (VALUES, MASTER), see the Glossary.

Before You Start

Please understand the following:

  • Use at your own risk
  • Excessive writing of MASTER paramset parameters can damage devices
  • Entity customization (names, icons) must be done via Home Assistant

Configuration via UI

  1. Go to Settings → Devices & Services
  2. Click on Homematic(IP) Local → Configure
  3. Navigate to the Interface page
  4. Enable Advanced configuration and proceed
  5. Add parameters to the un_ignore list
  6. The integration reloads automatically after saving

Finding Parameter Names

To find which parameters a device has:

  1. Export device definition:
action: homematicip_local.export_device_definition
data:
  device_id: YOUR_DEVICE_ID

  1. Check the CCU WebUI → Device settings → show technical data

  2. Use the get_paramset action:

action: homematicip_local.get_paramset
data:
  device_id: YOUR_DEVICE_ID
  channel: 0
  paramset_key: VALUES
