Can someone paste their json config file for their Bosch control panel that works with HomeKit /bosch control panel integration . I can not seem to get a config file set for my setup . It either throws a service can’t be blank , or just does not show up in HomeKit .

… listenning on port 7700 then. Is it still active on your panel ? Hi Eric, I didn't manage to get it working again. I unplugged the serial cable and the ethernet cable on the module for 10mins the reconnected it and one the blue light showed up on the Module I then plugged in the ethernet cable and it recognised it straight away. Every other time I was resetting the IP Module I was plugging in the ethernet cable BEFORE the blue light had come up. Thank you so much for your help and patience with me. I appreciate this application you have created and it is my most used on in apple home.

In ReReHome

Whatever this plugin publishes reaches Apple Home as a normal HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.

Bridges get their own settings page listing the accessories behind them.
