Manual

1. Using the tool of choice open the directory (folder) for your HA configuration (where you find configuration.yaml).
2. If you do not have a custom_components directory (folder) there, you need to create it.
3. In the custom_components directory (folder) create a new folder called pitboss.
4. Download all the files from the custom_components/pitboss/ directory (folder) in this repository.
5. Place the files you downloaded in the new directory (folder) you created.
6. Restart Home Assistant
7. In the HA UI go to "Configuration" -> "Integrations" click "+" and search for "PitBoss"

Configuration is done in the UI

Power on your grill and it should be discovered automatically over Bluetooth. Once you initiate the setup process, it will ask for your exact grill model so we can properly communicate with it. No cloud access necessary!
