This is a plugin that interacts with an installed nodejs-poolController server to provide automation and control for your Vera home automation hub. The nodejs-poolController server allows you to control Pentair pool equipment via its RS485 port. This includes outdoor control panels for IntelliCenter, IntelliTouch, and EasyTouch. It also includes a standalone function that allows you to control pumps and chlorinators without an automation controller.
You can find nodejs-poolController here.
NOTE: This plugin does not work with version 5 or below. You must install version 6.x and above.
To install the plugin follow the instructions in the Installation and Setup wiki.
It provides automation support through your Vera hub and acts as yet another controller for your pool equipment. It is capable of integrating with scenes and other devices on your Vera. Every device that is connected to the nodejs-poolController server can be automated and controlled with Vera. All status information is instant and reflected immediately.
