Hubitat Driver for AirTouch 5 AC Controllers

A custom Hubitat Elevation driver for monitoring and controlling your Airtouch 5 AC Controller directly from your home automation platform.

Full disclosure, I used Claude to write this based on the API Specification. Included is a CLAUDE.md file that will help anyone improve on this plugin and pickup where Claude left off. PR's are welcome :)

Installation

1. In Hubitat → Drivers Code, click the "+ Add driver" button and paste contents of AirTouch5.groovy and click Save
2. Add another driver and paste contents of AirTouch5Zone.groovy and click Save
3. In the Devices section, create a new Virtual Device, choose driver AirTouch 5 Controller
4. After creation, in your new device's preferences, set the static IP of the AirTouch 5 console and the AC unit number (0 for single-AC setups)
5. Click Save Preferences → the driver connects, polls status, and auto-creates Zone child devices.
6. Check the state of the device, the "Connection Status" should be "connected" if the IP was correct
7. You may need to wait 5 minutes for the Zones to be sync'd with their current state and label

Caveats

• This is only written and tested for a single AC unit. For multi unit setups, you will need to modify the code.
