MM & Home Assistant (HASS)
-
@rgn01 sounds exciting! I just got home assistant yesterday, still in the learning curve! Just wondering how to control the MM with home assistant. Currently I have a PIR sensor attached to the MM gpio which controls the display.
Is it possible to make a short video demo of your project and share? I’m very interested to learn! -
@soubhik-khan Hi. With my face, I don’t do videos - and you can thank me for that!
Seriously, start with ESPHome on HASS - get an ESPHome node working with a PIR or MW sensor and an LED output. Once you’ve got that working separately to MM, you are ready to connect the two.
At that point, connect the LED output pin (the 3V3 login pin) to the MM GPIO pin and configure the PIR module on MM as normal.
That’s it - they are now connected and you can programme HASS, the ESPHome node and MM as you need.
Hope that helps.

I had this set-up for quite a while now, but I have it configured a bit different. I have a ZigBee human body detector in the bathroom integrated with HA and based on the input I remotely control MM via HA automations.

@ivanov_d due tell where did you find a zigbee human detector? I’m VERY interested!
