is the fine for you ? ELV-SH-BS2.txt

I added the device into the Branch ELV-SH-BS2 (https://github.com/hahn-th/homematicip-rest-api/tree/ELV-SH-BS2) Can you please get this branch and try to access the switch with the hmip_cli.py file? You need to specifiy the arguments --channel 1 or 2 and and --turn-on or --turn-off. And of course you have to target the device. More info: python hmip_cli.y --help

Hey, sorry for my ignorance, but to be honest: i´ve never done this before. Can you explain how to test, or give a link where i can read a how-to ?

And BTW, i think the HMIP-BS2 is the same. For any reason they named the ready to run retail product HMIP-BS2 and the kit from ELV is the one i have ELV-SH-BS2
