MyQ


The MyQ integration lets you control MyQ-Enabled garage doors and/or lamps through Home Assistant. Device names in Home Assistant are generated based on the names defined in your MyQ Device mobile app.

Configuration

To add the MyQ integration to your Home Assistant instance, use this My button:

MyQ can be auto-discovered by Home Assistant. If an instance was found, it will be shown as Discovered. You can then set it up right away.

Binary Sensor

Your MyQ gateway will appear as a binary sensor that shows if the device is connected.

Cover

Garage doors and gates linked to your MyQ account will appear as covers.

Light

Lamps linked to your MyQ account will appear as lights.

Using HomeKit controller for local control - No Apple device required

If you have a 819LMB or MYQ-G0303-SP, Home Assistant can speak HomeKit Accessory Protocol and control the device over the local network without the need to access to the cloud service. As a bonus, updates are push and near-instantaneous.

To use HomeKit Controller:

If bridge is currently paired (otherwise skip these steps)

  • Open the Apple Home App to the Home that the MyQ device is paired with.
  • Touch the Home Icon.
  • Choose Home Settings.
  • Scroll down to Hubs and Bridges.
  • Touch the MyQ-... bridge.
  • Touch Remove Bridge from Home.
