v2.2.3 (2026-09-02)
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
- Bugfix: Make sure that the UART RX pin pullup is set correctly, ratgdo/homekit-ratgdo32#192
- Bugfix: Protocol door state should never update when encoder enabled and protocol is dry contact, ratgdo/homekit-ratgdo32#193
- Bugfix: Added additional security precautions around userid and password and require authentication to view logs if authentication enabled
- Bugfix: SSID's getting truncated to 3 characters, fixes ratgdo/homekit-ratgdo32#198
- Other: For Sec+2.0 doors only, query GDO's firmware version and show it at bottom of ratgdo web page
- Other: If rotary encoder enabled report door position to web page and mDNS records
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.
