1. Purchase a Wemo’s D1 mini with a 1 channel relay shield and some jump cables then solder it together when it arrives. Item list is below. a. Wemo’s D1 mini i. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32681374223.html b. 1 channel Relay Shield for WEMOS D1 mini i. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32728319939.html c. Dupont Jumper cables (female to female) i. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000465062848.html Note, you will need some cable to go from the 1 channel relay shield to your garage door, but you should be able to use any suitable cable you can find laying around for this.

2. Install Tasmota Hubitat firmware onto your Wemo’s device and configure the Tasmota settings onto your WiFI. a. I will not be going into this process because at this point it should already be known.

3. Configure Tasmota portal by clicking on “configuration”, “configure module” and changing: a. D1 to Relay1 (wemos 1 channel relay) b. D7 to Relay2 (not physical connected) c. D5 to Switch2 (reed switch)

4. While still within the Tasmota portal click on “console” and type in the following: a. "pulsetime1 5" for turning on for 0.5 seconds then off again. b. "switchmode2 1" for disabling it as a toggle switch. c. ONLY IF REQUIRED - "switchmode2 2" if your reed switch shows ON when closed so this inverts it.

5. Configure your newly loaded device into Hubitat e.g. “add virtual device” and select the “Tasmota - Universal Parent” driver. a. this assumes you familiar with the existing Tasmota Hubitat drivers and how to load them etc.

6. Configure your unique settings and hit “refresh” which will build two new Child devices under the parent device e.g POWER1 and POWER2. a. POWER1 is the reed switch on D5. b. POWER2 is the wemos 1 channel relay on D1.

7. Click on the POWER2 and change the driver to “Tasmota - Universal Switch as Garage Door (Child)” a. this assumes you familiar with the existing Tasmota Hubitat drivers and how to load them etc.

8. POWER1 will remain unchanged as it should already be assigned the “Generic Component Switch” driver.

9. You are now ready to physically deploy this to your garage door opener. a. Connect your reed switch to D7 and GND. i. Reed switch mounting options can be found in DrZzz youtube video below as well as other online sources that you find suitable. b. Connect your wemos 1 channel relay to D1 and GND. i. I will not explain how to connect this to your garage door opener as some doors are different etc, but you should be able to work this out based on information online or via your garage door manual. In addition you can view DrZzz youtube video here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cJSaEniGik&t=95s c. Do not connect D7 to anything it’s not supposed to be physically connected to make this work.
