Homey can you turn on the airco?
Can homey turn on the Airco?
Thev Airco is on the second floor, so maybe with the remotec ZXT-120 or something like that
Comments
How can switch everything that's connected to an Zwave/Kaku/Zigbee module and/or can communicate over IR.
So if your Airco has the ability to be turned of with and external contact; connect an zwave module to it and Homey can switch your Airco.
The remotec zxt-120 is a zwave controller that sends ir signals to a airco. But I think that homey needs a code to tell the remotec which signal to send.
The ZXT-120 is just an HVAC module, so with the right homey driver/app it should work.
I hope somebody can make a app for homey.
Maybe this is useful https://github.com/bdahlem/device-type.zxt-120
I'm looking for almost a year to integrate my Panasonic inverter AC in my domotica system (HomeWizard/Homey/Harmony) and this Remotec ZXT-120 ends my quest!!! Thanks for bringing this into the forums! Hopefully it will work with my o so beloved Homey, when it comes!
Just received an email from Tado.com that the announced some sort of AC smart Bridge.
https://www.tado.com/us/
In March of this year the also announced IFTTT and API support.
Maybe its something for the Homey/AC guys![:) :)](https://forum.athom.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)
It is very expensive. 214 dollars. The remotec is 79 euros.
Remotec has no onboard touchscreen for reading/changing values of your AC.![:) :)](https://forum.athom.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)
Ok, most AC's have a remote control, but Tado gives you also more stuff to play with
But never the less; its indeed expensive
Touchscreen is not important for me. Maybe we can ask homey for the status. Or with the app and I can see it on the AC itself.
Maybe homey can support both.![;) ;)](https://forum.athom.com/resources/emoji/wink.png)
My remotec is delivered this morning so I hope it will be supported;)!

Does anyone has any idea if the Remotec ZXT-120 could be used for any IR device as a Homey IR extender?
For example; homey (placed in living room) sends a z-wave signal to ZXT-120 (placed in bedroom) and the ZXT-120 will send a IR signal to my TV/speaker system/led IR controller/etcetera.
It should be. If Athom or someone else wrote a driver for it
This is a pretty old topic...
I'm just wondering if someone already tried this? Does Homey support the ZXT120 module for controlling the (almost all models of) AC ?
Thanks
Have read the manual real quick and is should work.
One thing I'm not sure of if Homey supports the
There are many things to control any air con, if you own a Logitech Harmony Ultimate, same it can be controlled from anywhere in the world by using the existing Logitech app in the Athom store.
However, the nifty way will come once @TedTolboom will have the ZXT-120/600 done
I forked Ted's repo and modified the ZXT120 to support only temperature and mode. Couldn't get the fan speed working. I'm also using less UI compared to Ted's.
At least you can change temperature and AC mode for now on ZXT 120. Please use the SDK2 branch.

Have not worked on the flow cards but I hope this helps.
see supported devices at https://apps.athom.com/app/hk.com.remotec
But I suggest to move all app relevant questions to the Remotec topic: https://forum.athom.com/discussion/3113/
