Homebridge Remote Transmitter plugin
This is a plugin for Homebridge to allow controlling modern 433MHz receivers like lightbulbs, switches, dimmers, outlets, etc. This plugin is meant to run on Raspberry Pi's (or boards with a similar GPIO setup). It's been tested on the newer KlikAanKlikUit (KaKu) receivers in combination with HomeBridge running on a Raspberry Zero and it works great.
Installation
$ npm install -g homebridge-remote-transmitter
Configuration
First, you need a working Homebridge installation.
Once you have that working, edit ~/.homebridge/config.json
and add a new accessory:
"accessories": [
{
"accessory": "RemoteTransmitter",
"name": "Livingroom Light",
"pin": 7,
"address": "2",
"device": "1",
"service": "Lightbulb",
"dimmable": true
}
{
"accessory": "RemoteTransmitter",
"name": "Bedroom Light",
"pin": 7,
"address": "3",
"device": "1",
"service": "Lightbulb"
}
]
'pin' is the physical GPIO pin that the 433Mhz transmitter is connected to.
