Command line utility for controlling Edimax plugs and cameras remotely through Edimax cloud service.
Sends commands and receives data from Edimax WiFi plugs and IP cameras using Edimax cloud service. Using EdiManager does not require being in the same network as the device nor configuring router port forwarding. Edimax plugs and cameras maintain connection to the cloud servers using undocummented protocol. EdiManager uses this protocol to control Edimax devices. Device is identified by Device ID (MAC address on a sticker). Access is authenticated with password.
