Hi all,

 

I have been reading an hour here and I can't find a "standard" way for controling Air conditioners. Could you please help me to sort this out this info?

 

I would like to buy some machine, but I preffer to make something more standard. What I have learned here is that:

 

- Almost any brand doesn't have API REST support. --> Is that correct?

- Some brands are not using standard IR codes, so it is not possible to control them by Globalcache, Remotec, Broadlink RM2, mini...)  --> is that correct?

- There are some middle-point equipment that make like gateway due this lack of standards, like

My ideal goal would be to control easyly from a VD from Fibaro... If not, I can try to control it by Broadlink RM2, but I guess I will lose some a lot of useful thiings like back return information etc.

 

Do you recommend any brand in particular? I need to start from scratch so I would really like if you can share with us your advice

 

Thanks a lot in advance

I'm using a Broadlink bridge, so it sends the IR commands. I use a HCL. Why do I need crypto?
