Ratgdo - ESPHome Yaml - Where does it go?

The documentation for the Ratgdo for ESPHome points to esphome-ratgdo/static/v25iboard.yaml at main · ratgdo/esphome-ratgdo · GitHub.

I don’t understand, nor can find references, to this in any installation walkthrough. Is it for reference or am I supposed to copy it somewhere?

Getting started guide should do the trick

I’ve not used Ratgdo but I’m pretty sure that the installation instructions tell you to just use the web based installer instead of flashing the board manually.

But if you want to use ESPHome for some reason then following the documentation above is the way.

Thank you. That gave me a lot of context but the reason it wasn’t linked anywhere was that the web installer did all of this for me.

For the sake of future people searching the reason the RATGDO didn’t work is that my Chamberlain Liftmaster PL750EV doesn’t have 4 connections (like most I see) but 9, 0-7 with duplicate 2.

If you have this model, and find this post, wire the red cable into the green 0 instead of the red 1. That’s the communication connection.
