Relay management

[kiondi]

Hello
The plugin works fine with homebridge.
How can I do to reverse the GPIO exit when it work?
The plugin set the port HIGHas default, when the blind stop, and LOW when the blind work.
Thanks

I need trigger the relay by the HIGH level

Hi, sure I will make the active gpio configurable in a couple of days.

Might be related to my issue to. Afaik we need a HIGH to start the blinds.

I saw you pushed, will look through code later on, super work, thanks!

Just out of curiosity: do you mind sharing which motor you have for your blinds and how you have wired them to your relay board (NO/NC?). Because both @martijndierckx and I were pretty surprised to see that you need an inverted open to control your motor?

@hyperbart I've got relay module as in README here. All the wires from the roller blinds goes directly to garage where this whole setup is connected with raspberry. I don't have any switches near windows, all of this is controlled via iOS Home app only.

@kiondi sorry for taking it so long. Fixed in v1.0.1.

Works perfect!

You're gonna laugh a little bit but I found a new "enhancement" 😄 .

A dual-controlled blind (a blind with a fixed switch and the homebridge-gpio-blinds) does not report back a state, so you could get a mismatched object in HomeKit where it thinks it is closed or open while it's the opposite. The guys at homebridge-rasppi-gpio-garagedoor have solved this by including a reed-switch/magnet-switch which signals is the garagedoor is open or closed.
