I do not use Indigo for primary programming or control of the pool but use it to adjust the salt cell output or turn pumps on for off-hours swim/cleaning, and have the polaris cleaner run an extra 2 hours on rainy days (=leaves). Nice to see water temp also. Also linked some simple pump on/off commands to my Alexa which makes a midnight swim easy to voice activate.

example turning a pump on:
- Code: Select all
import urllib
ip = str((indigo.variables['poolURL'].value))
ip = ip+'set.cgi?name='
try:
cmd = urllib.urlopen(ip+'circuit6&value=1', proxies={})
confirm = cmd.read()
if float(confirm) == 1:indigo.variable.updateValue('poolConfirmCmd',"POOL ON REC'd")
else: indigo.variable.updateValue('poolConfirmCmd','NOT ACKNOWLEDGED')
except: indigo.variable.updateValue('poolConfirmCmd','COM ERR')
note to make it more fun my pump is 100feet from the house. I have a UniFi outdoor wifi antenna on the garage. I put a waterproof housing hosting a TPLINK wifi in bridge mode that connects the autellis (also in the waterproof housing). The tplink pings my router every few minutes and reboots when it loses connection. Indigo pings the tp-link also and reports to me if down every couple hours. Somehow this all works pretty good.
