NAD T778 on HA

Hello,
i am tring to configurate my nad t778 with this integration

but I can never see the device.
Can someone help me?
@cdce8p

My yaml is this

# NAD
media_player:
  platform: nad
  name: NAD T778
  type: Telnet
  host: "192.168.1.62"
  max_volume: 0

I always find the entities as “not avaiable”

Please format your config code correctly for the forum:

```
CODE GOES HERE
```

Should look like:

media_player:
  - platform: nad

and so on. We cannot tell if you have any formatting errors in your YAML with it posted as you have.

Also, there’s no need to blank out local IP addresses. My (Yamaha) receiver is on 192.168.1.11, for example.

Other posts suggest you need:

    port: 23

in the config, as the integration default seems to be 53. Don’t expect it to be perfect though:

I used port 23 but nothing has changed.
So i prefer to delete it su use the default 53.

The player is always not avaiabile.

Try it as a YAML list entry (leading hyphen, which I can now see isn’t there with your formatting correction):

media_player:
  - platform: nad
    name: NAD T778
    type: Telnet
    host: "192.168.1.62"
    port: 23
    max_volume: 0

Another little thing.

I noticed that if the Nad disconnect from network the entity became not avaiable and it doesn’t come back online unless I restart the yaml.
Is there a way to restart the service with a trigger or sometingh else? Is there a service for this for ex?

Yes:

And if i would like to trigger when it disconnect? Is it possibile? Otherwise other trigger could start in inappropriate moment…

Automation with a state trigger on your entity going to unavailable.

You can actually test it by manually telnetting to your NAD from your computer.
If you telnet to the IP address on port 53, you actually get a NAD prompt, you can type in “?”, and get a list of commands.

However, when the device is in standby, you can longer telnet to the device, which means you can never turn it back on, after it’s been turned off, which is a shame.
