Siri / HomeKit control of RF switches by way of homebridge. Fork of https://github.com/FWeinb/homebridge-rcswitch
npm install homebridge-rcswitch-gpiomemControl RF outlets with HomeKit / Siri using
rcswitch-gpiomem
1. Install WiringPi
1. Install homebridge: npm install -g homebridge
1. Install homebridge-rcswitch-gpiomem: npm install --global
homebridge-rcswitch-gpiomem
1. Update your configuration file.
See sample-config.json
Either onCode and offCode or systemcode and unitcode are required.
My switches use on and off codes, so that's what I recommend and all I can
really help with.
- accessory: Must be RCSwitch (case sensitive)
- name :: string :: What you want to call the switch. Keep in mind
that Siri will prefer anything other than your homebridge switch if there's
any confusion, so name it something unique
- onCode, offCode :: int or string
- If int: Decimal RF code to turn switch on / off
- If string: Binary RF code to turn switch on / off
- systemcode :: string :: RF system code. I don't use this, please
refer to other docs.
- unitcode :: int :: RF unit code. I don't use this, please refer
to other docs.
- pin :: int, optional :: BCM pin connected to 433 mhz transmitter, defaults
to 17
- pulseLength :: int, optional :: RF pulse length, defaults to 190
- bitLength :: int, optional :: bit length of RF code, only used if using
decimal RF code, defaults to 24
- repeats :: int, optional :: Number of times to repeat the transmission of
the code, defaults to 10 (as per the original rcswitch
code)
- Move setRepeatTransmit to just before calling switchOn() to facilitate
multiple switches with different desired repeat counts
- Move setPulseLength from initialization to just before calling switchOn()
to facilitate multiple switches with different pulse lengths (closes #2).
