v2.2.2 (2026-08-21)
Important
HomeKit firmware for ESP8266-based RATGDO v2.5-series devices is deprecated since version 2.2.0. See README.md. Future updates are not guaranteed.
What's Changed
- Feature: RATGDO32 and RATGDO32-DISCO only, add support for rotary encoder for Sec+ doors, ratgdo/homekit-ratgdo32#189
- Bugfix: GDO light not always responding to command from HomeKit / webpage. Should fix ratgdo/homekit-ratgdo32#191
- Other: Add additional conditions to when we send a request for status to Sec+2.0 doors on receipt of an unknown (packet decode errors)
- Other: Disable ratgdo encoder on ESP8266-based boards, will only support on ESP32-based boards
- Other: Changed vehicle distance log messages from Debug to Verbose level
- Other: Updates to json.h to check that we do not overwrite buffer, suggested by @abud86 in ratgdo/homekit-ratgdo32#190
- Other: Only update target lock state if HomeKit requested an update, as suggested by @adub86 in ratgdo/homekit-ratgdo32#190
- Other: Update authentication as suggested by @adub86 in ratgdo/homekit-ratgdo32#190
- Other: Replace special chars with HTML for SSID softAP.cpp, suggested by @abud86 in ratgdo/homekit-ratgdo32#190
- Other: Don't parse HTML when setting device name in web page, suggested by @abud86 in ratgdo/homekit-ratgdo32#190
Known Issues
- Sec+ 1.0 doors with digital wall panel (e.g. 889LM) sometimes do not close after a time-to-close delay. Please watch your door to make sure it closes after TTC delay.
- Sec+ 1.0 doors with "0x37" digital wall panel (e.g. 398LM) not working. We now detect but will not support them. Recommend replacing with 889LM panel.
- When creating automations in Apple Home, the garage door may show only lock/unlock and not open/close as triggers. This is a bug in Apple Home. Workaround is to use the Eve App to create the automation, it will show both options.
- ESP8266 (original ratgdo) only... possible crash when a storm of HomeKit messages arrives... which may be triggered on a upgrade of Apple iOS/tvOS/etc. versions. System recovers.
