889LM flashing red and yellow on ratgdo command

[FeatherKing]

Hi, I have 4 ratgdo installed, 1 is security 2.0 and 3 are security+. Everything is working on emulation mode, but I just moved one of the security+ wall panels from a doorbell to an 889LM to test it out (emulation mode worked for all doors)

When i hooked up the 889LM it flashes quickly red+yellow (manual indicates this is charging it battery) then the light goes solid yellow. During this time the ratgdo correctly shows all status updates in home assistant/mqtt. Wall panel works, wireless remote works. When I issue commands over mqtt, the wall panel flashes slowly red+yellow (manual indicates this wall panel isnt compatible with my opener). After a few reboots of the wall panel, it eventually goes solid yellow and everything works again.

edit* i also reflashed with 2.57 and erased everything just to be sure it was setup correct.

I can go back to emulation mode, but I expected this to work? Logs are attached.

Yes 889LM should work (mine does). ratgdo should hear the serial data and stop emulation mode (which you can see happening in your log). What I can't tell is what's causing the 889LM to drop off and restart it's sync. I see you sent a number of mqtt commands, how long did you wait between each one?

i wasnt sure how to add a good timestamp in the logs, so near the end where there is a lot of looped output, i waited for a full cycle:

1    3A4C 3900 3A4C 3855  | door state: 55 1010101
2    3A4C 3900 3A4C 3855  | door state: 55 1010101
3    3A4C 3900 3A4C 3855  | door state: 55 1010101
4    QUEUE MSG ARRIVED [ratgdo-garage-south/command/light] 
5    off
6    MQTT: turn the light off
7    3A4C 3233 33FE 3131 Door state syncing
8    QUEUE MSG SENT [ratgdo-garage-south/status/door] 
9    syncing
10    3131 313F 3131 3131 3535 3333 3855  | door state: 55 1010101
11    Door state closed

the time between 6 and 7 was at least 5 minutes. the wall panel reset 2 or 3 times before it finally went solid yellow. I can get another log tonight. let me know if you want me to try any other steps or a different sequence. In my testing yesterday this was always constant:

the wall panel would be solid yellow
send a command through HA/MQTT
the log output would print the command
the opener would perform the command
but HA/MQTT topic would never get the result of the command
wall panel would flash red+yellow

wanted to add that this is a post-recall 889LM (manufactured Sep 2023)

Just moved to the esphome secplus 1 to see if that would help and i still have the same behavior here. The logging through the esphome build doesnt seem to be quite as detailed as what i was pulling of the serial console. Status is all reported fine, obstruction, open/close, light, but if i issue a command the wall panel reboots a few times.

wall panel was rebooting for about two minutes before the log output started again

I spent some time trying to grab some logs to help troubleshoot this as I believe I'm having the same issue.
Opener: Craftsman 139.53975SRT1
Panel: 889LMMC
ratgdo: 2.5i (MQTT 2.57)

Sequence of events:

The door takes approx 13 seconds to open and also to close

Power cycled ratgdo (changed from wall power to laptop)....

Note: It would be very helpful if a timestamp or some other counter could be added to the logs

I can second this. A couple of days ago, I switched out my old wall panel for an 889LM. After charging, it worked for a bit, then started randomly opening and closing, with the incompatible lights flashing. Finally, it stopped midway, at which point I disconnected the power and reconnected my old panel.

Unfortunately, since I only had a little bit of time, I couldnt get any logs (also my ratgdo wont reconnect after a reboot without me toggling between channels 6 and 11 on my 2.4ghz network.)

Following this issue therefore. thanks!

still having this issue on 2024.7.0 esphome and a build date of today. Im hoping maybe this PR will help ratgdo/esphome-ratgdo#304
