pmhgeneral Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 ISY 994i/IR Pro using MobiLinc X is there a way to control a GE smart AC unit instead of using the GE stand alone App, it works off of WiFi?
paulbates Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) No/Maybe. Mobilinc can control devices and programs that are defined in the ISY. Here are exceptions If there are public definitions of an API (application programming interface) for the AC, and ISY Network Resources could control it, then you could define network resources and write ISY programs to call the network resouces and mobilinc could control those programs AFAIK, Mobilinc (as well as the other ISY mobile apps) can not control devices defined as Nodeserver Node ... yet Paul Edited July 30, 2019 by paulbates 1
paulbates Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) So, I'll add one more to my list. The page for the GE AC units I found said it works with IFTTT. I believe moblinc X works with IFTTT, as does the ISY portal. @InsteonNut - I've wandered outside of what I know. Can you respond with what the possibilities are in this case?

Paul I will take a look at IFTTT for sure Paul thank you for bring that to my attention I will check when I get home later and keep you posted.
InsteonNut Posted July 31, 2019 Posted July 31, 2019 Hi @paulbates @pmhgeneral Yes! If the device supports IFTTT then that's a great way to bring support for it into MobiLinc X. We have an official channel with IFTTT where you can tie anything in IFTTT to your ISY OR trigger anything in IFTTT from a status/program/variable change from your ISY with just a few taps in the IFTTT app. I just released a Custom Button feature for MobiLinc X with a video showing how you can integrate a product connected with IFTTT into MobiLinc X for status and control. The example I use is the Roomba. Wes
