(Was voluntold to put this post together by @april.brandt and tagging @agnes.zooz so she can see what we did.) Since starting with HA I've worked to integrate my garage door with whatever system I had. Of course like most, I went with the MyQ solution and quickly got fed up of it. Wifi issues, cl…

Here's my wall switch: [IMG_3301.HEIC] This is my Chamberlain Liftmaster MyQ GDO: [IMG_3302.HEIC] Here's the 2 sets of wires going from my GDO to the ceiling (not sure exactly where): [IMG_3303.HEIC] Here is one of my photo eye's, there's another one wired identical to it on the other side: …

That very last pic (eye sensor) is a headscratcher - the "loose" wires coming in from the frame sure do look like the loose wires attached to your wall switch but that makes no sense to me... If you take the cover off that ivory box there, what does the inside of that look like? I've never seen an…

[image] hydro311: ETA2 -- Does the other eye sensor have those extra wires and a junction box like that too? Well, I guess they're not extra per se - it's still just 2 wires going somewhere -- I'm just confused what the purpose of that box is I feel the same way. There must be something goin…

Well I’ll be darned- it looks like an RJ11 port on the side of that box beside the photo eye… And yes- the photo eye on the other side is the exact same setup- ivory box and all. No idea what this is for. Also, @hydro311 the wires going into the crack between the garage door and the frame seem like…

My guess is that your house was pre-wired for the GDO with the RED and WHITE wires to each of three locations (two sensors + 1 button). The installer of the GDO used those white boxes to contain the splice to the wires that came with the Liftmaster GDO hardware. My guess is that tucked up into your…

Yeah I read your DIY post many many times lol but what hangs me up is the difference between your Zen16 and my Zen17 (which I know has already been explained to me, but electrical concepts just seem to elude me) has been stumping me. And the nice long write up from Zooz on their website for the zen…

You've gotta be right since there's only two 2-wire cables at the GDO - one cable is for the switch, but the other sensor cable must be a pigtail coming from a junction box somewhere where it connects to the 2 sensor cables (1 from each eye sensor). It sure would just be nice to have access to thos…

[image] williamtrelawny: And the nice long write up from Zooz on their website for the zen16 is great, but I wish they’d do one for the zen17 too. I can't say I've gone thru that guide with a fine-tooth comb looking for differences, but as far as I can tell, everything in that guide would be …
