Driver Configuration

Add driver to Global.

Once added fill in the driver config info with your Username, Password and the Serial of the Hub

The Connect via Cloud option will route all commands via the cloud. With this unchecked all commands will be sent locally to the hub.

Even with Connect via cloud unchecked, the driver still needs to perform some authorization with the cloud server, so internet access is essential.

Press Get Config from Ezlo Hub

Once the Config has been retrieved go to Add new Workspace Item

Select Drivers

Under RTI Ezlo You will see all the devices associated with the hub, Add the ones you wish to use.

Manufacturer

Ezlo Hub must have internet access.

All devices need to be added to the hub.

The driver will fail to get the config from the Hub if no devices have been paired to it.

Ensure the Serial number is correct. The driver will match the serial number you put in the driver config to the hub reported by Ezlo. If the serial doesn’t match the driver will not be able to connect.

Driver Features

This driver will control and give feedback for HVAC, Sensors, Doorbells, Lights, Switches and Door Locks.

Scenes are added under the main hub source.

Due to the multitude of HVAC and Sensor devices supported by Ezlo, It is impossible to list all the tags here as they will be different for each device.

But they should be the same as the Command/Variable Name

Events

Events will be created for each device.

Again, due to the different capabilities of each device, it is impossible to list all the events here.
