Need help with ratgdo32 garage door opener controller wiring

I I just got an installed a ratgdo32 garage door opener controller. I got ESPHome installed on it and the device is showing on HA. However, it’s not reporting the correct state of the door and it can’t operate the door.

I think I may not have complete wiring but need to verify the requirements. Here is the diagram they provide:


All I have connected right now is the red, white, and black wires on the lower right. The button and obstruction sensor wires are connected to those same terminals. Do I read this correctly that I should disconnect them from those terminals and connect them to the terminals on the ratgdo32? I’m asking because I don’t want to disable my opener.

Also, even if those aren’t corrected correctly, shouldn’t the device be reporting the correct open/closed status? If so then I could use advice on how to troubleshoot.

the wall mounted opener? IIRC you wired that in parallel to ratgdo so it can operate either way.

Perhaps you should present you door controller and the wiring between them…

Ignore left side of photo you posted

wire R, W, And B wires to opener.
Wall button and obstruction connect direct to Ratgdo.

Opener fully functional in that state from button.

Did you flash with esphome or Ratgdo?
Do you have Ratgdo connected into HA?
Can you access Ratgdo in web at IP?

Start Troubleshoot from Ratgdo web ui accessed directly at it network IP.

Thanks, that did it. It would be helpful if there were some brief instructions to this effect on the github page. I have suggested such.

Hi, I am new to Home Assistant (it’s up and I have my garden Ecowitt sensors in).
I just flashed my ratdgo32 with the fw for dry contacts.
and it is in HOA.
Now I am trying to figure our the wiring to the garage opener.
I have a Genie G-series garage door opener G5050CL

The exposed terminal are only for the “pushbutton” (we have one) and wall console (we don’t have). Terminal 1-2-3-4 and a cable that is terminated (I don’t know the name of the socket/plug - S.T.B connector?) is I guess the “obstruction sensor”, it leads to the “SAFE-T-BEAM®”.

The up and down limit are inside (those I can figure out there terminals, 14-15 and 16-green).
What I can’t figure out is where to connect the R, W and B wires. Where are the “Door opener terminals” ?
Is it the 1-2-7 (down, Up, Green)?

Thanks for your help.

this is the exposed terminals and the S.T.B connector to the Safe-T-Beam.

I should have studied it a bit more. All good. It works as planned.
For now I ignore the “obstruction”. May come back to it later.
So here for the “Genie 1/2 H.P. model G5050 garage door opener”.
