Defaults to tuyapollingInterval Defaults to empty which entails no polling. The frequency in seconds that the plugin polls the cloud to get device updates. When you exclusively control the devices through Homebridge, you can set this to a low frequency ( high interval number, e.g. 1800 = 30 minutes ). Minimum is 1030.addDevices Adding your existing Tuya devices.addScenes Creates switches to control your Tuya scenes.generateConfig Generates an accessory list and includes it into the config.json for later editing ( required using the homebridge-syntex plugin )error, warn, info, read, update, success and debug ( for example debug: false )id, name and services ( required )id has to be either a real tuya id or another random unique text ( no duplicates! )name could be anything.services The services of your accessory.name could be anything.id has to be a real tuya id ( when using multiple services )type Define the service type ( dimmer, led, outlet )min Calibrate the brightness conversion minimum ( from 0 to 100 )max Calibrate the brightness conversion maximum ( from 0 to 100 )Control and set up your devices by installing homebridge-syntex
This plugin is made for plugin management, automation system and device control.

( Removes ABCDEF1234567890 from the Config and Home App )
To enable the automation module you have to create a file named automation.json in your baseDirectory >> automation or install the homebridge-syntex plugin to create them via UI ( only between SynTex plugins )
Example: For manual configuration update your automation.json file. See snippet below.
