After adding my 1 and only garage door in Step 2, it asks me to Add New Garage Door (step 3) #12

Same issue here - been over a month and no response? |

@ajardolino3 any ideas? I personally just use the drivers directly without the ap |
|
Have given up for the moment... am using directly in Home App... Siri listens to me , but geolocation not activating the routine (despite the tab showing that I have left the building!) and rather annoyingly Siri (on my phone) won't activate the routine as I am driving back to the house, unless the phone is unlocked... which rather negates the point, although interestingly, Siri on my Apple watch WILL open the door, so I have to whisper to the watch so the phone can't hear!! |

When adding your garage door, I believe the app may have the wrong wording. Step 2 is the name of your hub/meross device. Step 3 is the name of the door the device is controlling. When I first set mine up, I only had one door, too, and it was confusing because I named both the device and the door the same thing. Hope this helps. |

Step 1 for me is username/password/device IP When I try to add the driver manually and add the IP address of my meross unit, it asks for all kinds of more information: Key: I was able to see in the hubitat log with debugging enabled what the UUID and Key are, but I see different data showing up like token and userid, not "Sign" or "Message ID". I found a python script I could run to try and find the other variables and ran into this script: https://github.com/bapirex/meross-api/blob/master/login.py Running that gives me the output in a format like this: The script seems to use a random number generation which means the values will be different each time you run the script, but when I populate the driver in Hubitat with all the values from the python script, I am able to see the device respond to the web interface - it updates the state of the device with: Current States Clicking refresh does a POST command in the log which doesn't seem to have any errors with it... But clicking open or close does nothing at all. If I open the garage doors manually via physical button on the garage wall, or using the Meross app, then the web interface updates and says the door is opening and the contact is open. So why don't the buttons work? I feel so very close. :( |

I believe the issue is that I only tested this app with an MSG200, not an
MSG100. The MSG200 supports up to 3 garage doors. The Meross API must
return the data differently for the MSG100.
Keep in mind, all the app does is simplify the setup of the devices. If
you already have the devices setup, the app won't help you much. Feel free
to modify/update the code for MSG100 and submit a pull request.
As far as automating with geolocation, I use the BLE Gateway app with a USB
dongle in my car. When the cart pulls up to the house, the door
automatically opens everytime. Automatic closing doesn't work as well,
given the nature of this technology, but I do have some rules in place that
if no one is home, to automatically close the garage door if its open.

Step 3 looks like it's trying to populate a list of MORE garage doors, but
since I don't have any - it will not continue and brings up an error when I
click next, that I HAVE to pick a selection to continue, but there is
nothing to select but an empty list.

I think your struggle says it all... I want a 'slightly' easier
solution... OK... A much easier solution... So I turned off Home Assistant,
turned off my Hubitat and just use Apple Home (with Controller)... I know I
am loosing abilities, but have got back a lot more time... "Siri, open the
Garage Door." works for me, and while I haven't got the geolocation to
work, at least Siri listens to me.

Ahhh!!! Of course... that explains it... Thanks for the response... A |
But, of course, there is no other door, so it fails...
Is there a simple way to ask how many doors you want to add and then run the process 'that many' times??
Thanks
