¶ Special Warning for RATGDO Devices
While we love the RATGDO device and recommend it for most jobs, we DO NOT Recommend using it where the client has a MyQ Wall controller that has an LCD panel or motion sensors. The RatGDO will cause the wall controller to reset in 1 out of 4 cases. The wall controller will come back on when physically activated, but until it has been physically triggered, the device and its functions will be offline. This is a known issue with RATGDO and there is currently no fix.
The RatGDO itself will continue to work and trigger from Nice. If your customer doesn't care about these features or you can replace the wall trigger with a simple dumb open / close trigger, by all means use the RATGDO.
INNOVO is not responsible for any issues that arise out of this known issue.
The issue is highlighted here.
