Use this library on custom built HCPBridge

[Knuppel1983]

I had this working setup connected through MQTT, and tried your ESPHome version. Was hoping it would work out of the box, but it doesn't. What happens is the ESP32 boots (light on), then goes off. The Hormann stops providing power after 1 or 2 seconds. I'm guessing it needs some kind of feedback to keep the power on.

Is it possible to use your version on below setup, if yes what do i need to adapt? I've already tried rx_pin, tx_pin and changed the board to esp32dev.

Looks like an error in the tx an rx pin settings. What setting where you using in the mqtt version. Which board do you have exactly and to which pin you have connected you rs485. Can you share your yaml.

Nevermind. Have it working now! Combination of loose dupont cable and fiddling with these settings. :-)
Will solder all together. Thanks for the great work.

hcpbridge:
is_connected: # Sensor to display the connection status to the motor
name: "HCPBridge Connected"
rx_pin: 16 # optional, default=18
tx_pin: 17 # optional, default=17

Nice that you get it working. If you are interested of some additional features of the HCP bridge you can have a look on my fork
