HAI / Leviton Omni Panel — Home Assistant Integration

Native HA integration that talks Omni-Link II directly to your Omni Pro II / Omni IIe / Omni LTe / Lumina controller over TCP. No middleware — HA opens an encrypted session straight to the panel and listens for unsolicited push messages.

This integration is the HA-facing wrapper around the omni-pca Python library; the library handles the wire protocol, this component surfaces it as HA entities.

Install

HACS

1. HACS → Integrations → search HAI / Leviton Omni Panel.
2. Install, then restart Home Assistant.

(If not yet in the HACS default catalog: HACS → Integrations → custom repository → add https://github.com/rsp2k/omni-pca, category Integration.)

Manual

Copy the custom_components/omni_pca/ directory into your HA config/custom_components/ directory and restart HA.

Configure

1. Settings → Devices & Services → Add Integration → search for HAI/Leviton Omni Panel.
2. Enter:
   • Host — IP or hostname of the panel (e.g. 192.168.1.50)
   • Port — defaults to 4369 (HAI's reserved port)
   • Controller Key — 32 hex characters, the panel's NVRAM key
3. Save. The panel appears as a single device with entities per object.

Where do I get the Controller Key?

If you have a .pca configuration export from PC Access, the included CLI extracts the key for you:

uvx omni-pca decode-pca '/path/to/My House.pca' --field controller_key

Otherwise, find it in PC Access under the panel's Setup → Misc → Network page (HAI labels it "Encryption Key 1").

Entities created

One device per panel, plus per-object entities below.

Platform	Entity	Per
alarm_control_panel	Area arm/disarm with code	discovered area
binary_sensor	Zone open/tripped	binary zone
binary_sensor	Zone bypassed (diagnostic)	binary zone
binary_sensor	AC power, backup battery, system trouble	panel
button	Panel button macro	discovered button
climate	Thermostat (heat/cool/auto, fan, hold)	discovered thermostat
event	Typed push event relay	panel
light	Unit on/off + brightness	discovered unit
sensor	Analog zone (temp/humidity/power)	analog zone
sensor	Thermostat current temp / humidity / outdoor temp	thermostat
sensor	Panel model + firmware, last event class	panel
switch	Zone bypass toggle	binary zone

State propagates via the panel's unsolicited push messages: zone changes, arming changes, AC/battery troubles, etc. all arrive within one TCP round- trip. A 30-second background poll backstops anything that didn't push.

Services

Service	Purpose
omni_pca.bypass_zone	Bypass a zone by 1-based index
omni_pca.restore_zone	Restore a previously-bypassed zone
omni_pca.execute_program	Run a stored program by index
omni_pca.show_message	Display a stored message on consoles
omni_pca.clear_message	Clear a displayed message
omni_pca.acknowledge_alerts	Clear all outstanding troubles/alerts
omni_pca.send_command	Power-user escape hatch (raw Command opcode)

Every service takes an entry_id so it picks the right panel when you have multiple configured.

Automation example

React to any alarm activation in real time:

automation:
  - alias: Notify on alarm
    trigger:
      - platform: event
        event_type: state_changed
        event_data:
          entity_id: event.panel_events
    condition: >
      {{ trigger.event.data.new_state.attributes.event_type ==
         "alarm_activated" }}
    action:
      - service: notify.mobile_app
        data:
          title: ALARM
          message: >
            Area {{ trigger.event.data.new_state.attributes.area_index }}

Diagnostics

Settings → Devices & Services → HAI/Leviton Omni Panel → ⋮ → Download diagnostics dumps a redacted snapshot (controller key removed, zone names hashed) — useful for bug reports.

Troubleshooting

• Won't connect: confirm port 4369 is open on the panel. The Omni Pro II's network module ships off by default; enable it under Setup → Misc → Network on a console.
• Authentication failed: re-check the Controller Key. The integration triggers HA's reauth flow when the panel rejects the key.
• No entities for X: only objects with a name configured on the panel are discovered. PC Access's "Names" page is where they live.
