Open/Close Both Garage Doors

I've got both of my garage doors (North and South) working with Indigo using the MyQ plugin, they are also working with Siri using the HomeKit Bridge. I'm trying to figure out how to setup an action group (?) and be able to tell Siri "Open Both Garage Doors" or "Close Both Garage Doors". So far I've not had much luck. Any thoughts on how I might be able to do this?

Re: Open/Close Both Garage Doors

One way... Create a virtual device called "Both Garage Doors" and create the device with actions. You will then need three Actions... Open Both, Close Both and Toggle Both. You will also need a status variable and triggers to populate that variable. Once that's all working, you should be able to add your virtual device to HomeKit and it will recognize "Both Garage Doors" as a device.
