HomeKitHub model for fan/light combo is limited

Featured Replies

Hi all, I am a new HomeKitHub user. I'm a long time ISY/Eisy user but new to this plugin. I bought the plugin to integrate my Hunter ZenTech smart fan/light combo into UD so that I can control the light in scenes.

The implementation in Apple Homekit had two separate sub-nodes for the fan and light, with the ability to switch either on/off, brightness control for the light, and fan speed and rotation direction for the fan.

I was able to pair the fan/light with HomeKitHub and successfully generate nodes (after upgrading to pro and enabling node generation) but there is only a single light node. The on/off control turns the fan on/off (no speed control) and the Brightness control can be used to turn the light on and off by setting it to either zero or non-zero values. So, I can do most of what I need to do, but functionality is limited due to this limited model for the device. The biggest problem is that I can't add the light to a scene, but will need to run a program to control it.

Is this a known limitation? Any plans to enhance this to match the Home model with two sub-nodes. Is there a manual tweak I can do to get a better model?

Thanks,

Bret
