Issue thread (GDO blaQ): Purple button garage opener with 888LM/889LM wall button

We’ve made it a bit easier to test the bleeding edge / experimental firmware releases so hoping you guys can try this out. There’s now a dev build available that has the latest pre-release changes. @toddtmw @Dave_Jones let me know if you’re able to try this out.

This release-candidate adds a protocol option to the drop-down called “Security+1.0 with smart panel” that you should select if you have the 888/889LM digital wall button with a Security+1.0 opener (purple learn button). It should fix the issue with the wall button getting clobbered at startup.

Two ways to update:

1. Update via USB cable at install.konnected.io

Connect your computer to the GDO black using a data-capable micro-USB cable. Go to install.konnected.io, select the GDO blaQ and ESPHome firmware. Now you have the option to choose the stable or dev build.

2. Update via ESPHome

If you’re using HA and have ESPHome add-on installed, you can edit your config to build from the dev branch. Open the ESPHome dashboard, click Edit on your GDO blaQ device, and modify the last part of branch identifier in the packages line to dev, instead of master like this:’
