HOOBS Support

Configure the plugin manually on HOOBS where the config UI may be outdated, or migrate to Homebridge for a fully supported setup.

Why the HOOBS Config UI May Not Work

HOOBS may ship an outdated configuration UI, so the plugin's setup screen might not render the way it does on Homebridge.

  • This issue was reported to the HOOBS team and remains unresolved.
  • Full details are tracked in the HOOBS GitHub issue.

Configuring Manually

Until the config UI is fixed, HOOBS users should configure the plugin by hand instead of relying on the setup screen.

Here is the platform block that goes inside the platforms array of your config.json:

config.json
json
{
  "platforms": [
    {
      "platform": "ADTPulse",
      "name": "ADT Pulse",
      "subdomain": "portal",
      "username": "user@example.com",
      "password": "Mys7r0nG!P@ssw0rd",
      "fingerprint": "VGhpc0lzQVNlY3VyZVBhc3N3b3JkMTIzIQ==",
      "mode": "normal",
      "speed": 1,
      "options": [],
      "sensors": [
        {
          "name": "Family Room Couch Window 1",
          "adtName": "Family Room Window (99)",
          "adtZone": 99,
          "adtType": "doorWindow"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Migrating to Homebridge

If you are technically inclined, replacing HOOBS with Homebridge gives you the plugin's full, up-to-date configuration experience.

  • Homebridge runs the same plugin with a working config UI.
  • Follow the official Homebridge wiki to install and set it up.
