    Yes of course... only if..

    Hi...

    You can retrive the tempreature from your AC only if it can tell you.

    Can you recieve any strings from your Device?... if so then send a command to it requesting for the temp... then send it back to the panels or whatever output..

    The protocol document for the VST can be downloaded from AMX. Just search the InConcert Resource Center for Viewstat. It will give you the complete protocol.

    Here are the basics.
    The command to query the temperature from the stat is:

    "SN[address] TEMP?"
    The response string will be:
    SN[address] T={value}F or {value}C


    The command to query the temperature from a remote sensor is:

    "SN[address] RxSy?"

    where:
    ?x = the support module address (1 - 4)
    ?y is the sensor number (1 or 2)

    The response string will be:
    SN[address] RxSy={value}F, C or %
    Parameters:
    ?x = the support module address (1 - 4)
    ?y is the sensor number (1 or 2)


    You can send the commands to the stat by using send_string.

    Also, if you issue a COS (Change Of State) ON command for the parameters you want, the stat will respond with a string when that parameter changes e.g. "SN[address] C2=ON" will notify you when the displayed temperature changes.
