Install Home Assistant

Install either Hass OS, or Hass Container:

see: https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/

Install HACS

Install HACS using its install script:

see: https://hacs.xyz/docs/installation/installation/

Enable the HACS Integration:

see: https://hacs.xyz/docs/configuration/start

If you have the Honeywell cloud comfort integration already installed, you may wish to remove it - you may get duplicate Climate entities otherwise.

Add ramses_cc as a Custom Repository to HACS

Now, check the documentation at: https://hacs.xyz/docs/faq/custom_repositories/

select HACS (side panel), Integrations
select the three-dots menu on the top-right, select Custom repositories
add the repo URL (https://github.com/zxdavb/ramses_cc), Category is Integration
click the Add button, and close the window (X in top-right)

Add ramses_cc as an Integration via HACS

select HACS (side panel), Integrations
click the Explore & Add Repositories button
search for ramses
click on Honeywell RF...
click on Install this Repository in HACS, then Install
restart the HA Core

you will not see a tile added to the integrations / front end as this does not provide one.

Configure ramses_cc (configuration.yaml)

Finnally, you'll have to edit the configuration.yaml file: below is a absolute minimal example:

ramses_cc:
  serial_port: /dev/ttyACM0  # depends upon your specific device

If you have successfully installed ramses, and initialised the correct serial device, you will see messages from ramses in the HA logs.

But you will have to add more options than the above, as described elsewhere in the wiki: https://github.com/zxdavb/ramses_cc/wiki/2.-configuration.yaml
