5 years ago My config file looks like this: (private details changed)

}I didn't do anything to unpair the Eve from my home before trying to start up the ranger plugin, and i'm wondering if maybe i should have, since after ranger started up, a second device appeared in my home, under the ranger/homekit bridge, with the name specified in the config file. Homekit did not seem to recognise it as the same device. The mac address of the device is the one i saw advertised when i first started up homekit, and the pin came from the sticker in the Eve Aqua's box, with hyphens inserted to fit the format used here.
I've setup homebridge-ranger on a Raspberry Pi Zero W, hoping to be able to bridge the device on to WiFi so i could automate it with the Apple TV automations system. I've had only partial success.
The plugin does seem to pair, and logs out like this: (pairing codes removed)
It continues casually logging out discovery, advertisements, connected, and service discovery stuff over time. The device also appears in my Home app, and appears as the correct type of device, but it's unresponsive to any attempt to activate any of it's features, and Home and the Eve app appear unable to read any current state information too. The Eve app also seems to think the battery is empty, but i'm guessing it's getting back a null or something equivalent and interpreting that as 0% charge. Feeling lost as to what else I can do to debug this issue.
