Known Issues
Unsupported Devices
- Sensor-only devices (motion sensors, door/window sensors) are not supported. These devices do not respond reliably to LAN polling and typically require cloud push notifications.
Protocol Limitations
- Protocol version 3.5 is not currently supported.
- Some newer Tuya devices may use protocol versions or encryption methods not yet implemented.
Single Connection Limit
Tuya devices allow only one LAN connection at a time. If another app or plugin is connected to the device, this plugin will not be able to communicate with it.
DataPoint Mapping
- DP mappings vary between manufacturers, even for the same device type. The default mappings may not work for all devices.
- Some devices report DPs in unexpected formats. Check the Homebridge log output to identify the correct DP numbers for your device.
Adaptive Lighting
- Adaptive Lighting is only supported on
RGBTWLight,TWLight, andOilDiffusertypes. - Requires Homebridge >= 1.6.0 and a compatible Home app.
