  • Installing a MAC-5571F-E WiFi module yourself isn't too tricky if you haven't been able to find an engineer who'll do it for you.
    MELCloud allows you to control your air conditioning system from your phone or PC via the internet. The internet must be available at your home or office for this system to work.
    Welcome to the IoT.

    Thanks for you video! It did helped me to put the module MAC-567I-F Wi-Fi in a MSZ-EF42VGS.
    In my case i put the module in the left side behind the cover for gas connections, so it became invisible and the wire goes behind near the tubes until the board.

    Thanks for the video, it gave me the courage to unscrew the last 2 screws covering the mainboard and connect the wifi unit to the right connection on the mainboard. I have an MSZ-HR50VF which is almost the same. Now i have a working melcloud unit thanks to your video!!

    is not possible install the MELCloud module inside of clima unit, you need to fix it to the wall, esthetically it's awful

    Nice video - helping me decide about which AirCon. Seems you might be able to put the wifi adaptor above the AC unit so you don't see it - as it does not need to be line of sight for any reason (?)

    • @PhillipParr
      @PhillipParr  2 роки тому

      You could indeed put it above, you may even be able to hide it entirely inside the bottom cover with some encouragement, if your WiFi signal is strong enough!

    Why do they have to push everything to the cloud? I want LOCAL control of my heating even when Internet is down!,,

    • @PhillipParr
      @PhillipParr  2 роки тому +1

      Local control would require a separate hub and additional programming. Ultimately it comes down to a business decision about cost and effort, and Mitsubishi have decided for whatever reason that it's not worth it. I suspect every customer agrees with you though!

      There is a local solution where you use an arduino in stead of this box. Needed: Arduino (mini), home assistant on a device at home (raspberry pi is the easiest/best IMHO), esphome plugin, cables, a 2.0 JST Pin connector and lots of spare time ;)

      I'm not sure - the app doesn't seem to pick up the WiFi modules shown in this video, but that could also be because I'm in the UK and currently only the US is supported.

      Electrical interference is reason it must be installed outside units or on wall.
