Craftmade fans remote control?

Is there an add on that will allow Indigo to control a craftmade fan via the fan's remote control interface? The fan has a control for a light and a six speed fan control and direction. The fan-link seemed to interfere with the fan's operation, so that was a bust. (The fan only had one wire for power, light and fan).

So can the remote codes be hacked? Or is there a USB device than can use the remote's RF to control the fan?

You could get an iTach device to both learn and then repeat any commands you want back to the fan. I use iTachs all over my house for all sorts of various IR stuff and those paired with Perry's "Cynical Cache" plugin works well in Indigo.

It looks like the iTach devices are IR, not RF. The fan remote is RF. I was thinking of something like a gethook.io or RFX device.
