Some questions from a Newbee

1

Hi,

sorry for my maybe stupid questions but I am a HA beginner.

I have connected my HA with my RaspberryMatic running on a separate RPi.
All Homematic entities are now available in HA.

How can I create an automation with the Homematic entities? I don’t see any Homematic devices. I only can see entities.

Another question:
My HM-LC shutter actuators look in lovelace like windows and not like shutters.
I changed the device-classes via the developer tools from window to shutter.
But after a reboot they are windows again.
What I am doing wrong?

Thanks for your help.

Regards
Kai

You will use state services on the entities instead of device services:

light.turn_on, switch.turn_off etc.
