Smart Air Conditioning System - MyAir by Advantage Air

So I was looking at the alarm capability and it needs more coding for that to work. The current code certainly will not work in its current state.

I can add it but the driver needs to be renamed after the changes because it will not function as a switch after that. Maybe Shelly Alarm.

Ah ok fair enough. Well if you do it then call it a Shelly Alarm on your git site and also reference the blog on Smarter Home. If we need to get Doug to add a link to your site as well I am sure he would.

@blair I just happened to play with RM tonight and saw it can send a POST command using JSON payloads. Have you seen this yet and tried it ?

If it does you could always make virtual devices to do certain commands.

Happy to help/test this one. Got a MyAir system, fairly familar with its API (had a whole bunch of automation configured with nodered

My A/C is controlled by a smart thermostat that in turn is controlled by an app I'm working on. The thermostat of course comes with its own software that's pretty good. These apps enable full control and monitoring from anywhere.

A cheaper option is a simple smart outlet. You can get those for $20-30 and that includes power logging (like a Kill-A-Watt). This would work as long as the A/C will power-on to the right setting.
You could manually control your A/C from anywhere. One heckuva lot easier and more reliable than any DIY solution.

I just finished coding @jchurch iZone drivers -- turned out really nice. All zones are thermostats and the Master Control Panel can be completely controlled via HE

@anon61068208 I seem to have issues accessing your site. My previous login did not work .
Thanks

Long story about this.

Anway for me to get the codes to myair then?

Thanks

Hi didn't code the myair because Blair wouldn't help with debugging it like Jason did.

I knocked out Jason's drivers in 3 days but he also paid for my time which was about 35 hours of work. Jason has iZone system and that code is nothing like the myair so it's not compatible.

Hi, does it work with google home voice command?

Hey I'm completely new to hubitat and am very interested in getting myair integrated into hubitat. I don't currently have the hub yet as my decision is hinging on whether I could control myair with it and have a proper control I could add to the dashboard that would give me the same control I get from the myair app....(zone control etc). Also would it be possible to actually get zone control included into the voice commands aswell as you can only control on/off, mode, fan speed with voice commands at the moment.

I'm hoping you're able to pick up from where you were and I'd be happy to sling you some coin for your efforts. My names Jon by the way........probably shouldv'e led with that.

Hi I've got a myair as well and am considering buying the Hubitat. Keen to know if it's likely this will become a thing? Happy to help with testing and debug

Hi. I have myair and keen to be a tester if you need one.

I have tried running the following URL's via RM to trigger a HTTP GET command and even using other user drivers like "http GET Switch" and "http momentary switch" but the commands seem to fail. They do work in a browser or a tile with a link in it however. Tile is not a good option as it takes you to a page with the status the command ran.

http://ip:2025/setAircon?json={"ac1":{"info":{"state":"on"}}}
http://ip:2025/setAircon?json={"ac1":{"info":{"state":"off"}}}

At a minimum looking to see if I can create buttons to turn the device on/off or set to cool/heat until something better gets developed. If anyone can help would be great

G'day @anon61068208

I am trying to get to your Myair git repository linked and having problems registering to access the repo. Can you assist?

Peter

Repo was deleted many months ago.....

That's a Shame, any chance for your work to be resurrected by chance? If not can you give some tips on how we can call the API via hubitat? I can't seem to get it to work in HE but can from a browser and postman.
Thanks

No and no -- I have stopped coding for public use since so many have ripped off my source and called it thier own

Sorry to hear that has happened to you. Thanks for at least letting us know. Wish you all the best in the future buddy.
