wifi to serial via http
Posted: Fri Jul 27, 2012 9:14 am
I've got a samsung TV and a denon receiver, both able to receive serial commands.
I'd like to be able to control them in Homeseer, so I want to send serial commands.
Since they are too far away from my homeseer server, I need another solution to transfer the serial commands than using a simple cable.
I found a wifi-to-serial device, in combination with a virtual com port on the server. That should work.
But I would really want, is a wifi-to-serial device with some sort of build in web server that you can send commands to
(like: http://192.168.1.33/command.cgi&com1&set011010100 ) or so.
That way I don't need a virtual com port.
Dows anyone know if such capabilities exist?
