This did it for me! It's a no-hardware solution which is what I was hoping for. It depends on the cloud - but so does the Pentair Home app, so if I can get close to the functionality from Home Assistant, I'm happy. The configuration is weird as it makes each pump preset a "light switch" that is...

Thank you! All ideas are helpful!

I’m pretty well convinced that I will need to invest in some hardware to make it work. See the post above from matt.york as it sounds like that might be the most-minimal way to do it.

Thank you - this is very helpful! I will see if I can make it happen for my setup.

I haven’t tried it yet - busy with other projects, but when I make progress, I will post here.

Thanks - this may lead me in the right direction! I’m getting pretty decent at using ESPHome and probably connecting a ESP8266 D1 Mini to a RS-485 to TTL board may do the trick. As I’m learning about RS-485 I’m thinking I can use a single RS-485 board to connect to both of my pumps and see them...

Thanks - this is very helpful! I was looking at the Elfin EW11 RS485‐WiFi adapter and the setup instructions. This might work for but I was wondering if it can be done without the Intellitouch controller- in other words, connected directly to the pumps. I don’t have or need any of the...

I looked at the Gateway and the best price I can find is $350 US. And the functionality it provides is advertised as WiFi access through an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch through their mobile. But this is a capability I already have through the Pentair Home mobile app. Hence the original question.

Thank you for the suggestion! I looked at that and even tried it but it requires a Pentair ScreenLogic Gateway and I am trying to avoid buying extra hardware for what seems like can be a solution using the existing Pentair API. Even so, I may take a look at the ScreenLogic gateway to see if it...

I have the exact same question as this post from over a year ago: Pentair Intelliflo 3 VSF Wifi pump WITHOUT Intellitouch or Screenlogic - Homeassistant integration? In a nutshell, I have a Pentair IntelliFlo VSF pump (actually 2 of them) that I can control with the Pentair Home App via a WiFi...
