Control a garage port with Arduino via Domoticz

Hi!
I am trying to control my garage port with an Arduino. I have a Domoticz windows server running controlling all lights and sensors in my house and I want to add my garage port to the system, the gate works like if it gets a puls it opens/closes and if it gets another pulse while opening/closing it stops, then goes the reversed way. I have a Relay to control the pulse but how do I "connect" it to domoticz?
Thanks beforehand!
Best regards Max

What kind of wireless gateways to Domoticz do you have? Because that save you some money to buy a new gateway. Wifi is off course 1 of the possibility but there is also zigbee, zwave, RF etc.

You need Arduino with Ethernet shield + Relay or more simple would be to buy ESP8266 and connect relay (on ESP8266 install espeasy firmware with works perfectly with Domoticz.

I have a Arduino D1 Mini Pro (based on ESP-8266EX) and a relay

If it is compatible with ESPEASY you have a domoticz interface with that.

I just got it working! I had to wait for the arduino. It was easy to setup and works flawless. Thanks for the help!

Good to hear! What was your method you used, with Espeasy?

How to do that without espeasy? Because i have on this esp32 another sensors etc. reporting to domoticz and i want to drive relay with the same esp32 through domoticz.
