3 years ago I would be very happy with a similar but different extra option: the 'second' click (after open or close) of the button would stop the blinds. This could be an optional setting: enable stop: true So if the blinds were closed, a sequence would be: 'click': blinds start opening (blinds still opening) 'click': blinds stop opening 'click': blinds start closing ..... etcetera
Hi,
I successfully installed and configured your homebridge-gpio-blinds plugin
Thank you so mach for that, it’s preatty useful
I was wondering if you could make a new version of the plugin with “a little change" I’m new in raspberry and programming world and don0t know where to start unfortunately
In my blinds remotes (that I control via GPIO pins with your plug in) I have one more button, the STOP one. The remote send 3 message, UP, DOWN and STOP and neither of the 3 need to be long pressed. When I push the DOWN button the blind shut and automatically stop when is completely closed. Same thing for the UP button.
So I would really like a version of the plugin where I can set the 3rd button to handle a midway stop of my blinds.
I think this could be done using the durationUp/Down time field and calculating the right moment to send the STOP message.
Another really appreciated feature would be a “lag” field to handle different blinds at the same time, because all the remotes work with same frequency (different channels) and if UP/DOWN/STOP button is pressed at the same time in 2 or more remotes none of the messages are sent to the blinds. With a “lag” field I would be able to space slightly in time, different simultaneus messages without having problems.
I know it’s a big request Feel free to decline
many thanks in advance
