Connecting the hardware

1. Connect the wires as follows:

Setting up the software

1. Download Tasmotizer: https://github.com/tasmota/tasmotizer
2. Connect the NodeMCU via the USB port
3. In Tamotizer, select Release and click Tasmotize
4. Look up an access point with the name tasmota_XXXXXX-####, connect and follow the instructions
5. Go with the browser to the IP-adress of your NodeMCU
6. Click Configuration
7. Click Configure Module
8. Set Module Type to Generic
9. Save and wait for the device to reboot
10. Repeat step 6 & 7
11. Configure the module as shown on the picture below

12. Save and wait for the device to reboot

Optional: add silent mode to doorbell

Optionally, it is possible by adding a 'silent mode' to your doorbell. You do this by updating the configuration add temporarily remove the relay from the configuration.

Home Assistant configuration (requires MQTT to be configured)

Switch:
- platform: mqtt
  name: "Deurbel stille modus"
  command_topic: "cmnd/doorbell/GPIO5" ## Set 'doorbell' to the topic name of your device
  state_topic: "stat/doorbell/RESULT" ## Set 'doorbell' to the topic name of your device 
  payload_on: "0"
  payload_off: "256"
