### {% linkable_title Variables %}

It is possible to read and set values of system variables you have setup on the CCU/Homegear. The supported types for setting values are float- and bool-variables.
It is possible to read and set values of system variables you have setup on the CCU/Homegear. The supported types for setting values are float- and bool-variables. With the CCU a user with Admin-access is required.
The states of the variables are available through the attributes of your hub entity (e.g., `homematic.ccu2`). Use templates (as mentioned above) to make your variables available to automations or as entities.
The values of variables are polled from the CCU/Homegear in an interval of 30 seconds. Setting the value of a variable happens instantly and is directly pushed.
