Steve,
I am trying to control thermostats that are part of my zoned HVAC system that are connected to HomeSeer via MQTT messages to a node-red server that actually sends commands and receives status/temperature info from a serial port connected to the HVAC zone controller.
I had written about 1/2 of a plugin in HS2 to control these thermostats, but decided to go with JavaScript and Node to take over the parsing/handling incoming thermostat messages and generating thermostat commands.
I'm wondering if I can use your plugin to act as a proxy for these thermostats, allowing HomeSeer to control them via MQTT messages to the node-red server.
So I am not controlling an HVAC unit directly using a software thermostat but rather controlling it by sending commands to a real thermostat.
Any thoughts on whether this might be feasible for me to do using your plugin?
Thanks!
Mitch Mitchell
