Hey everyone, first time here and very much enjoying my new house and the heat pump hacks, Shellys, lights, locks, outlets, and oddly decent YAML code Grok has helped with
Question, I got two ratgdo kits, very cool stuff, problem is I have some old 3 wire chamberlands running security 1.0, I think I overlooked selecting this when I first set them up.
I can toggle the doors open, see if there is motion on the safety sensors, but have no door open or closed state and would prefer not to use my PTZs to see if the doors are open.
It's in the docs, right where you had found that screenshot: ratgdo
Security + 1.0 openers can report door status over the data line, but not all wall panels are compatible. ratgdo listens for a wall panel to communicate with the door, and if it detects one (such as an 889LM) or 041A7928-3MC it listens and reports the door status. If ratgdo doesn’t hear wall panel communication then it switches to emulation mode, where it streams the query commands necessary to get the door opener status. Emulation mode will cause analog wall panels (e.g. 78LM) to not be able to control the lights or lockout the wireless remotes because their analog commands will be ignored by the door opener.
