A Fibaro relay device and any door/window/tilt sensor can be configured to function as a Garage Door device, along with the Virtual Garage Door plugin within the automationbridge.
Connect Power to L & N. Connect the Q & I to the terminals on the GD Motor, usually the same ones going to the wall press button. |
Fit your Door/Window sensor as you would to any door. You can also use a Tilt Sensor fitted directly to the Garage Door. |
The following configuration steps must be taken, so that the device's can function correctly and be used with the Virtual Garage Door Plugin.
Step 1 - Configure the Switch module, by clicking on its config icon.
Step 2 - Click the Advanced tab, scroll down to the section 'Advanced' and make sure that Controlled Device is set to 'Other Device' instead of 'Lighting'
Step 3 - Scroll further down to locate the setting for auto-off, this is usually called Timer Functionality and may vary device to device. Enable this setting and set to 3 seconds.
This completes the setup for the switch module.
