I am curious if this plugin will allow me to do the following:
I have 3 SMC (Structured media cabinets) that I want to add fans to.
I would like these to be controlled likely by temp (could be on the arduino side or HS side).
I would like the temp to be reported in HS and possibly the fan status and/or RPM.
Now, I know that I could do most of this with an Arduino and I have no issues coding it myself. What I thinkinking this plugin will help me do is get those values into Homeseer (tamp, fan status). At this point I would prefer 1 arduino do all the work (2-3 temp sensors with 2-3 fans. Fans powered externally from arduino). IF this works though, I have some other fans I would like to also automate in a similar fashion in my Rack and in my equipment room.
So will this do it, or should I try and make my own plugin to handle the communications and just use the arduino for all the logic?
