homebridge-tado-manual v0.2.1
Homebridge Tado Control Switches
Homebridge plugin for controlling Tado thermostats.
Why do we need this plugin?
Tado provides everything we need in Apple HomeKit except for the manual switch we do not have direct access to in HomeKit. This plugin exposes exactly this as an extra switch to create automations for that.
For example:
Window open > Heater Off = Manual Control On
Window closed > Heating switched back to automatic = Manual control off
