Work without a puck? #10

Closed smmalis37 closed 2 years ago

smmalis37 commented 2 years ago

I'm considering purchasing some flair vents, but I have no need for the sensors provided by a puck. Do I still need to purchase one for connectivity, or can this integration directly control the vents?

You still need to purchase at least one (may require more depending on how far the furthest vent is from the puck). The puck is what communicates with the vents and Flair servers. This integration leverages Flair's API to send commands to Flair's servers which in turn send it to your puck(s) and finally the command is relayed to the vent(s).
