Goose66 Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 The node server for the Autelis Pool Control device has been migrated to PG3. Currently it only support Jandy/Zodiac Aqualink controllers. See here for details. Let me know if there is any interest in supporting work to add Pentair support here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apostolakisl Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 (edited) Putting in a pool here shortly and the pool guys want to put in Pentair. I am not encouraged by what I see here regarding integration. Anything new? @Goose66 Edited October 6, 2023 by apostolakisl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goose66 Posted October 7, 2023 Author Share Posted October 7, 2023 (edited) I would need Internet access to someone’s Autelis device, and some beer money. (Ok, I’m not fooling anybody - it’s money to buy more HA devices 😁). Edited October 7, 2023 by Goose66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I understand that Autelis is a bridge that connects various pool equipment to a common user interface? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goose66 Posted October 7, 2023 Author Share Posted October 7, 2023 The pool controllers have proprietary network busses (usually RS-485 based) that they use to connect remote controllers like a wall mounted controller. The Autelis device is a third party product that connects to that bus and then provides a Ethernet network-based access to the pool controller, either web (REST) or lower level TCP/IP protocols. The Autelis device is discontinued, and most pool controllers today either come with an Ethernet or wifi connection option or offer one for an additional cost. Unfortunately tapping into the protocol for these first-party network interfaces is difficult, because the API is unpublished and they want you to use their proprietary apps and websites. The Autelis device was made for DIY home automation users (as well as being significantly less expensive). It’s a shame they went out of business.

carealtor Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 @apostolakisl I don't know how far you want to dive into this, but the Home Assistant Pentair ScreenLogic integration is very good. Of course, you would need the ScreenLogic brick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
