plugin won't load

I can't get the plugin to load. Here's the relevant error log:

I verified my config.json on jsonlint.com. Also, I've successfully gotten Homebridge to work with other accessories, so I know my setup is sound.

Any ideas?

It looks like the issue is that you're using an earlier version of Node than the plugin requires. You should upgrade to Node v7.6 or higher and you should be good to go.

(The plugin uses async / await, which was introduced in v7.6).
