MEACControl

The library provides some Ruby classes to interact with a Mitsubishi Electric G-50A centralized controller. This device is used to control up to 50 indoor air conditioning units.

The G-50A offers a XML API for the communication.

So far, the library has only been tested with a G-50A. I'm not sure if there are other controller/devices which use the same API.

Security

Mitsubishi recommends to put the controller into a private network. In fact, there's no authentication or encryption needed to access the controller. There's been a post to the BugTraq mailing list in March 2008 regarding that. Archive
