Anthony,
Thanks for the response. I have reviewed everything in this thread and have tried both ways. I’m not using a serial bridge but rather a Pentair IP Protocol Adapter, there is no hardwire between the protocol adapter and the controller, it’s wireless.
I tried to keep the config files simple.
This is my thing def;
Bridge pentair:ip_bridge:1 [ address=“a.b.c.d”, port=xxx ] {
easytouch main [ id=16 ]
intellichlor ic40
}
And my item def;
Group gPool “Pool”
Number Pool_Temp “Pool Temp [%.1f °F]” (gPool) { channel = “pentair:easytouch:1:main:pooltemp” }
Number Spa_Temp “Spa Temp [%.1f °F]” (gPool) { channel = “pentair:easytouch:1:main:spatemp” }
Number Air_Temp “Air Temp [%.1f °F]” (gPool) { channel = “pentair:easytouch:1:main:airtemp” }
Number SaltOutput “Salt Output [%d%%]” (gPool) { channel = “pentair:intellichlor:1:ic40:saltoutput” }
Number Salinity “Salinity [%d ppm]” (gPool) { channel = “pentair:intellichlor:1:ic40:salinity” }
