• refreshTimer Optional - enable refresh of doors state every X seconds, for automation purpose if you need to activate something else based on a state change of a door by another means than homekit. Be aware it might make you gogoggate smokes since the plugin will ask its status very often :) (defaults : disable, accepted range : 30-600s).
• maxWaitTimeForOperation Optional - set the maximum time that we wait for door operation to complete. When elapsed, check the current State again and updates accordingly. (defaults : 30s, accepted range : 30-90s).
• refreshTimerDuringOperation Optional - set the refresh timer during operation in progress to detect the end of the operation. (defaults : 10s, accepted range : 2-15s).
• cleanCache Set it to true in case you want to remove the cached accessory (only those from this plugin). You have to restart homebridge after applying the option. Remove it after restart, otherwise it will be recreated at each startup.
