Smart Home Garage Door Opener, Part 1 - The Plan

I'm terrified of accidentally leaving the garage door open. Lets see if I can watch and control it from my smart home?

Dude, you were almost there! You just used the wrong values in the uart.write calls...

button:

• platform: template name: "Toggle Door" id: garage_door on_press:
  • uart.write: [0xA0, 0x01, 0x01, 0xA2]
  • delay: 1s
  • uart.write: [0xA0, 0x01, 0x00, 0xA1]

Thanks for posting though, it greatly accelerated my attempt with this, so the least I can do to thank you is provide the solution :)

My next one will be much harder... a Fujitsu ducted aircon that has no IR port!
