After watching this video. I purchased one of these. I have really old opener. A Stanley, it's 40 years old. It works really well, but I can't get a replacement remote. This device was very easy to install and connect to my WIFI. The only problem I had was finding a spot for the sensor. I had to fabricate a piece to attach to the top of the door for the magnet. It all works well and now I know if my garage is open no matter where I am.

can you give more details on what you did to get the sensor to work and what was the issue for the sensor?

Thank you for sharing this .. really smart and helpful. Regarding the “open/close” buttons, can I add “hold” button to use while it is opening or closing !! @Automotivate
@robraven777619 күн бұрын
So you know and others....that system does NOT truly recognize if the door is opened or closed. Your app says the door is "open" when it was really closed. If you were to by chance hit the door "close" twice, it will actually open on you and vice versa. Also another HUGE security flaw...such as happened to me....if the power goes out in the middle of the night or whenever....the door automatically OPENS ! Fortunately for me, nothing got stolen. I returned my unit immediately after that occurrence. Try this out...see for yourself.

I thought I setup the Siri thing, but she just says "I don't see any smart home accessories connected in your home. I can help once you've set something up in the Home app." All else went well. Have "shortcuts". Setup Siri voice commands. What am I doing wrong? Why is it looking for "home app"?

I had the same problem with the remote not working; it was the LED bulb in the motor unit. Changed it for another brand. Same problem. Used a known brand, same problem... I tried to move the antenna to the opposite side, and made it one meter longer, same problem. CFL was not an option. So, I went with an old-school bulb. Problem solved. And my remote started to "work" again.

Ok, but after you do that wiring, will the button by the door and the old garage door openers still work?
@AutoMotivate Жыл бұрын
Yes they do! We are simply tapping into the wires not removing its current functions
@jarbyvid9 ай бұрын
Yes, you're just tapping into the existing connection. Because one of my remotes was stolen I had to remove all of the codes from each unit so that none of the remotes no longer work. But these units are great - I wish we had done this years ago
