:description: Instructions for setting up Hydreon rain sensors
:image: hydreon_rg9.jpg
:keywords: hydreon
The ``hydreon_rgxx`` sensor platform allows you to use rain sensors by Hydreon. Currently supported are the RG-9 and RG-15 sensors (`model comparison <https://rainsensors.com/products/model-comparison/>`_).
These optical rain sensors use a UART connection at 3.3V. The :ref:`UART <uart>` is
required to be set up in your configuration for this sensor to work.
Supported firmware versions:
- RG-15: v1.000
- RG-9: v1.000, v1.100, v1.200

Configuration variables:
------------------------
- **model** (**Required**, string): Specify which rain sensor you have connected. Must be either ``RG_9`` or ``RG_15``.
- **disable_led** (*Optional*): Disables the on-board LED. Defaults to ``false``. Only on RG-9 firmware version 1.200-onwards.
- **uart_id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID of the :ref:`UART Component <uart>` if you want
to use multiple UART buses.
- **moisture** (*Optional*): Rain intensity level from 0-7 (`more detail <https://rainsensors.com/support/rg-9-rg-15-faq/#RG-9RValue>`__). Only on RG-9.
- All options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
- **temperature** (*Optional*): Device internal temperature in Celsius. Accuracy is ±5°C. Only on RG-9 firmware version 1.100-onwards.
- All options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
- **resolution** (*Optional*, string): Specify rain sensor resolution. Must be either ``low`` or ``high``. Default resolution is ``high``.
Only applies to RG-15.
- **acc** (*Optional*): Amount of rain since last message (see ``update_interval``), in ``mm``. Only on RG-15.
- All options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
- **event_acc** (*Optional*): Amount of rain for this event (i.e. since it last stopped raining), in ``mm``. Only on RG-15.
- All options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
- **total_acc** (*Optional*): Total amount of rain this sensor has ever measured, in ``mm``. Only on RG-15.
- All options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
- **r_int** (*Optional*): Current rain intensity in ``mm/h``. Only on RG-15.
- All options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
- **update_interval** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The interval to check the sensor. Defaults to ``60s``.
