Well its just those two wires that travel up to the opener. But there is a contact sensor up there that the garage uses to signal that the door is up. I want to tie into that so I can know the position as well, if possible.just do it at the button, solder on two wires to the points you need and bring it over to the relay, pop your button back on the wall with 2 wires coming out of it and call it a day. looks like it'll be your easiest option, unless there's something up on the garage door that will allow for connection.
if you want it to look pretty, run the wires to a box and use wiremold. you could even run the wires above the ceiling or someplace hidden.
depending on the type of garage door you could get a second button and modify/mount it anywhere. if you have a second wireless opener, you could even use that.
bumpOkay guise. How the hell do I make this relay work? This is what the button looks like.

I have no business graving this. I did not take his advice, and I have slept downstairs a number of times in the past.

Use it as a motion sensorPicked up a Nest outdoor cam. Pretty sweet and works with SmartThings. I don't really have an application for home automation with it. It's just that I worked it out so it was free and my old driveway camera hasn't worked in like 5 years or more.
