The `rflink` component support devices that use [Rflink gateway firmware](http://www.nemcon.nl/blog2/), for example the [Nodo Rflink Gateway](https://www.nodo-shop.nl/nl/21-rflink-gateway). Rflink gateway is an Arduino firmware that allows communication with 433Mhz devices using cheap hardware (Arduino + 433Mhz tranceiver).

New/unknown sensors can be assigned to a default group automatically by specifying the `new_devices_group` option with a group name. If the group doesn't exist it will be created.

Once the ID of a sensor is known it can be used to configure the sensor in HA, for example to add it to a different group, hide it or configure a nice name.
