I've got a MyQ device, but since I can't integrate that with anything now, I'd rather just use something else. I've seen these little Zooz z-wave dry-contact relays and to me, it seems like this might be a good solution if I just wired it directly to the wired garage door button on my wall. Just a r…

This was the missing piece, thank you! After adding this null check, it all connects and works! Thank you! For anyone who come across this in the future, I am improving and clarifying the instructions from this post here, for this specific process because I found this difficult to piece together …

Thank you! I now have it installed and it works when I access the ratGDO interface directly, but not from the Hubitat interface. I have the IP address set correctly in Hubitat, but it just has networkStatus : offline as the only property/state. I never came across any YAML code at all, where am I …

Look at the ESPHome documentation and ESPHome Web App documentation:. ESPHome: [image] ESPHome — ESPHome ESPHome Homepage - Reimagining DIY Home Automation. ESPHome is a framework that tries to provide the best possible use experience for using IoT microcontrollers for Home Automation.…

Sorry... I'm not clear on what you are directing me towards here. Am I now supposed to use some other webapp in combination with the ratGDO and hubitat? My device works and I can use it by accessing it directly. My Hubitat just sees it as being offline. I was under the impression there would be som…

[image] Sebastien: The MQTT firmware works with @ritchierich ’s recommendation. It required a MQTT server installed on another device initially. Not sure if that requirement is still in place at this point. MQTT is not required. I flashed mine with the ESP Home firmware and it integrates direc…

Hopefully, this lengthy post will explain what I am talking about and what your next steps need to be. My apologies if it appears pedantic, you appear bright but a bit inexperienced with ESPHome and Home Assistant. It's not clear to me what is flashed on your ratGDO. It's been a year or so since I …

I appreciate your explanation... but I'm still really lost as to what I actually need to do as a next step. I know I'm close though. I have never used Home Assistant nor do I want to use it as it seems to be overkill for my needs and it seems I can do all I want without it. From what you seem to be …

[image] ChrisB: What am I missing here? Please navigate to Libraries Code and make sure you have the espHomeAPI Helper code: [image] Then again I am using Adrian's version of the code and you can verify that by looking here in the driver code: [image] If not, open up the driver you have…

Yes, I have all of that and that is the exact driver I am using as well (I did a file diff to compare) Going into my device shows: networkStatus : offline Clicking the Initialize button makes that briefly flash to connecting and then it immediately goes back to offline

[image] ChrisB: Going into my device shows: networkStatus : offline Go to Settings, Network Settings, Network Test at the top and try to ping the RATGDO to make sure that the HE can talk to it. You may want to enable debug logging on the device too and click initialize to see if any further …

Good idea, but network test to ping the ratGDO IP address seems fine [image] debug logging shows the issue though! [image] Any ideas for what I can do from here?

Garage door relay or something else?
