1-1: LGTM! Clear and informative introduction.The updated introduction provides excellent technical details about the different RF Bridge versions and their microcontrollers. The information is accurate and helpful for users.
Consider adding a line break between the title and the SEO block for better readability in the source.
Also applies to: 9-11
50-51: Clarify which ID belongs to which component.While both ID descriptions are present, it's not immediately clear which one refers to the UART configuration and which to the RF bridge configuration. Consider updating the descriptions to:
- - **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID of the UART hub. - - **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID of the RF bridge. Used for code generation and event tracking in home assistant. + - **uart_id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID of the UART hub in the uart configuration block. + - **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID of the RF bridge component. Used for code generation and event tracking in home assistant.
Line range hint
362-425: LGTM with minor formatting suggestions.The Home Assistant integration example is comprehensive and well-structured. However, there are some minor formatting inconsistencies to address:
- ## send standard RF using intiger values + ## Send standard RF using integer valuesAlso, consider consistent indentation in the YAML configuration to improve readability.
