Homebridge Plugin for Tado Smart AC Control.

Complies with Service.HeaterCooler

Compatible with iOS 11 and above - iOS 10 Home app does not support this service.

This version is a whole new build that brings a lot more options to control your air conditiner with Homekit:

1. Homebridge plugin turned into platform to support 1 eco-system.
2. Device auto detection - the plugin automatically detects and adds any Tado AC device.
3. HomeKit air conditioner support.
4. Support for Swing and Rotation Speed of the air conditioner
5. Fan Support - as different accessory.
6. Auto configuration - The plugin detects the capabilities of your AC (set by Tado) and set them up accordingly in Homekit:
   • Zone Id
   • Home Id
   • Min/Max Temperature
   • Modes (AUTO/COOL/HEAT/FAN)
   • Temperature Unit
   • Swing
   • Rotation Speeds
7. Humidity sensor as a seperated accessory
8. Much faster status update - makes the accessories load much faster in Home app
9. Easy config - Only username and password are required now to enjoy all features.

from version 2.1:

10. Outside Temperature support
11. Solar Intensity support
12. Occupancy Sensors.

Enabling this feature will add 2 new accessories to your home:

All data is gathered from Tado API and is related specifically to your homes.

Outside Temperature - Temperature sensor that will show you the temperature outside of your home area.

Solar Intensity - Light bulb accessory that will show you the relative(%) brightness of the sun in your home area. will go off when it's dark.

Those accessories are great for setting automation based on the weather condition, for example:

• When the first person arrive, If Outside Temperature is lower than 18ºC, Then, Turn on the heat.
• When Solar Intensity is off, Then, Turn on the Hall Lights & close Blinds.
• When Solar Intensity is lower then 20%, Then, Turn on the Garden Lights.

When setting automations that are based on these sensors, it's best to set a polling interval value so that the system will update Homekit for any changes in weather every X minutes. I reccomend to set it to 10 (for every 10 minutes).

When there are no automations based on those sensors it's best to set it to false (or remove from config) so it would be easier on the machine. That way, the status for the sensors will be retrieved only when the app is opened

Enabling this feature will add Occupancy Sensors for each user signed up to your Tado home (and enabled location services on their device). If not set otherwise, the system will check for the status every 10 seconds.

"Anyone" Sensor will be added automatically to easily automate actions when the first person arrives home or the last person leaves. this is a better alternative to Home App Arrive/Leave automations since this will not require approval for triggering automation. to remove this accessory, set anyoneSensor to false

• Auto mode in the home app will show average temperature according to your maximum and minimum temperature, but because Tado app does not suport temperature for Auto mode, changing the temperature will not change anything in Tado.

• Rotation speed support every speed but not Auto speed since there is no option for that in homekit - therefor when rotation speed is set to Auto through Tado app it will just show middle-high speed in home app.

I tried my best to make this version flawless, but expect some issues since each user has his own different setup. Once a new issue is noticed, please submit to Issues
