Renegade_geek Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Love this! i am trying to use this info to replace the balboa wifi module... So my question to you all is if you have been able to decode the actual communication from the balboa spa motherboard that goes into the wifi module. I can't figure out wetter it is RS 485 or RS 232... If it is RS232, the packets seem to be very different that the UDP stuff... I basically want to replace the Wifi module with something better. A raspberry PI or Photon for example. My wifi module died when I set it for WPS... I cannot find a way to reset the config.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drmark12pa Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I just ordered the Balboa Wifi module for my Bullfrog spa.... I actually have audio from my HC800 running into the audio system built into the tub so can play anything via Control4 in it. Now it would be nice to be able to have C4 control the tub temperature for like Vacation mode programming and such. Please let me know if this driver does indeed see the finish line.

Pounce Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 FWIW: Bullfrog is using a new module. You might want to reach out and see if you can get the new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaas Mayer Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Is it still alive? Is there a c4 driver available? Made a python driver with works with the latest version of the balboa version. I also got pump 3 controlled, which was mentioned by @swissboy22. My knowledge in c4i driver creation is limited. But i can help to set this project up again.

My dealer checked your link but did not see that actual driver needed for install listed. Is there a driver listed on your page? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping there was a specific driver for the Bullfrog Hot Tubs that Control4 could use for controlling and say setting up a vacation mode type of macro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
