If you use the “+” sign under integrations and select “homekit controller” you don’t need to change anything in your config, it will automatically load it.
If the zeroconf
stuff is enabled (possible via default_config
?) then it may even show up under the integrations view as ready for pairing without having to click on the “+” icon. But thats optional.
It won’t show up while its paired with your iPhone, though.
And it won’t show up unless its already connected to your wifi.
It’s important to set it up with your iPhone and then remove the pairing on your iPhone. Do not reset the device, and definitely do not use the hardware reset button, as that will unpair it from the other devices and make it forget your wifi connection. You can only configure the pairings with the Eve app.
