![]() Perhaps when bPentair get a little further along, i can look at the differences between intellitouch and intellicenter and intelliconect. as an example, the screenshot is real/live data. ![]() but even then i'm not sure you can get the info into/do anything about it in C4. you can not get this info from iLink ($200) but can via pentair's screenlogic2 ($500+). of course, you will need a serial connection between your c4 controller and pentiar but everyone added that during construction, right! also would need a $10 rs485rs232 protocol adapter and because i'm running this on my development ea1, i needed a $15 3.5mm to rs232 adapter.Īlso, as noted above, a direct connection gives you access to everything on the bus - iChem, iChlor, detail pump info, etc. by going direct, you can bypass MQTT (your entire network really) and not get caught by a change in pentair's MQTT interface and not require a separate box as noted above. ![]() disclaimer is that i have an intellitouch, not an intelliconect, but the intelliconect uses the same serial connection to talk to other pentair equipment. ![]() This is what you do, or more specifically, what i'm doing: i wrote a pool proxy driver "bPentair" (not released) with the ability to directly read/write to the Pentair serial bus. part of the issue is the c4 pentair driver (functionality and including an issue or two i have with the c4 pool proxy) and part the pentair iLink. My current pentair integration is probably the weakest and least reliable component in my setup.
