Daikinrc

The DAIKINRC I/O Server is compatible with the Daikin room air conditioner series CTXM, ATXM and FTXM units that can be fitted with the Daikin wireless LAN adapter (BRP06xxx; versions BRP069C4x are not supported) and are supported by the Daikin Controller iOS and Android app.

A single DAIKINRC I/O Server controls all the devices connected to the local network.

Daikin Configuration and Discovery

All units must be connected to the same LAN of the HSYCO Server. When the DAIKINRC I/O Server starts, and then periodically every 30 to 60 seconds, a discovery request is sent to the LAN. New units responding to the discovery request will start to be polled by the I/O Server and become online.

HSYCO Configuration

Add a DAIKINRC I/O Server in the I/O Servers section of the Settings and set its parameters.

note

A single DAIKINRC I/O Server discovers and controls all units connected to the LAN.

Communication

As the I/O Server automatically discovers all units connected to the local network, no connection parameters are required.

High Availability

  • Shutdown when inactive: defaults to true.

User Interface

Daikinrc UI Object

Daikinrc UI Object 1

The daikinrc object is listed in the Project Editor’s new object list only when a DAIKINRC I/O Server is defined.

Parameters

  • id: the object's ID, used by UISets
  • server id: the server ID.
  • unit: the room air conditioner unit id.
  • position: the object's position. Use the pixels or rows and columns coordinates format
