Garage controller accessory shows up as generic switch #61

Closed crazyfoxkp closed 1 year ago

Hi- Thanks for your efforts. Using yolink plugin v 1.3, setup as child bridge on Docker/Synology. Under Accessories (Homebridge UI) tab - do not see garage controller accessory. Garage controller, sensor, and battery level displayed separately for ungrouped devices. For 1 grouped set (garage controller and sensor) only see a switch listing. Also, same findings on HomeKit. Controllers are displayed/behaving as simple switches. I think the expected behavior is to show open-closed-state, opening-closing transition state, and display as garage door. Tried removing and reinstalling child-bridge accessory / resetting the hub on HomeKit.

Any ideas?

Have you setup the garage door sensor and controller in the config file (or with the config UI)? You should have something that looks like this..

"garageDoors": [
                {
                    "controller": "0123456789abcdef",
                    "sensor": "abcdef0123456789",
                    "timeout": 45
                }
            ]

If you have not assigned a controller and sensor to a garage door as above then yes, each device will show separately.

If you have that, then l need to see whether there are any errors or warnings in the log file.

Thanks

I have one controller/sensor set grouped and another without. The grouped item displays as one unit (without sensor) but acts/displays as a switch, and doesn't provide state info.

Log file attached.

homebridge.log.txt Thanks for helping.

The clue is in this log file message...

[10/5/2022, 11:37:08 AM] [YoLink] Garage Door must have two known devices. Ignoring this door:
{"controller":"d8864c010003f92e","sensor":"d88b4c020006740a"}

You mistyped the UID for the controller... value in position 4 is wrong. This line should have appeared in the homebridge log viewer highlighted in orange to draw your attention.

Hi- Reentered UID and all work as expected. Issue resolved. Thanks again for doing this project and helping me troubleshoot. Cheers
