Manual configuration steps

If the above My button doesn’t work, you can also perform the following steps manually:

Host

Hostname or IP address of the device, for example:192.168.1.2.

Volume Resolution

Number of steps it takes for the receiver to go from the lowest to the highest possible volume. Possible values are 50, 80, 100, 200. For older Onkyo receivers, this typically is 80; newer Onkyo receivers use 200.

Input sources

List of input sources supported by the receiver.

The above settings can also be adjusted later. To do this, click the three-dot menu on the integration entry and select Reconfigure.

Options

Options for Onkyo can be set via the user interface, by taking the following steps:

  • Browse to your Home Assistant instance.
  • Go to Settings > Devices & Services.
  • If multiple instances of Onkyo are configured, choose the instance you want to configure.
  • Select the integration, then select Configure.
Max Volume

Maximum volume limit as a percentage. Often the maximum volume of the receiver is far too loud. Setting this will set Home Assistant’s 100% volume to be this setting on the amp, i.e., if you set this to 50%, when you set Home Assistant to be 100%, then your receiver will be set to 50% of its maximum volume.

Input sources

Mappings of input sources to their names.

Zones

If your receiver has a second or third zone available, they are displayed as additional media players with functionality similar to the main zone.
