RussellB Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Hi all, I have a Lennox iComfort Wifi in my Master Bedroom. There's a HouseLogix driver for it but I wanted to take this opportunity to see if I can write a complicated driver. Is there a 'competitive' market for drivers in the Control 4 world? I don't want to step on any toes. Russell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecodeman Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Houselogix has been dead since SnapAV bought them. I wouldn't worry too much about them being mad that someone else write a driver that they dont support or really sell anymore. >0.0% chance that someone at control4 gets bored and brings those into the fold, though unlikely imo. Good luck, have fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellB Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 Thanks. Well with part-time work I've learned Python and LUA. I have a driver that can read the thermostats, get the values, poll for changes. Need to add saving the values back, then prettying it up and then testing. Does Control4 purchase third-party drivers to include in their offering? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcovach Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 works with alexa? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopedogg88 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I suppose that would be helpful if my client had an Alexa system but they have a Control4 system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Ari's client is like me and has the very creatively named "Wifi" Thermostat, it isn't supported with Alexa either. dcovach 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopedogg88 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 my situation is a new construction home where the HVAC guys are planning on using Lennox ComfortSense 7500 and 5500 touchscreen thermostats. Anyone know if Control4 thermostats can work with Lennox? or does it depend on some specifics of the system? They need humidity management and this appears to have it.

RussellB Posted November 27, 2020 Author Share Posted November 27, 2020 I wrote a driver for the Lennox iComfort that communicates to the cloud API to control the thermostat so it can be done. dcovach 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveTX Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Checking in on this thread to see if anyone ever came up with a solution for the Lennox iComfort S30 thermostats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Housetricks Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Ditto +1. I have a project coming up with HVAC insisting to use their iComfort S30 WiFi thermostats connected to their Lennox air handlers. Looking at the forum, there seems to be interest but nobody capable of making this work. The S30 is Alexa, Google Home, Apple Homekit & IFTTT capable so the API is available - just needs someone in the same wheelhouse and an account over at DriverCentral.
