Description
This Crestron Home extension provides a Crestron Home platform interface for controlling Kasa IoT devices via the Kasa local and/or cloud protocols. Details on the Kasa Smart product line can be found here. This extension will identify all Kasa devices on the local network and/or cloud account and create the necessary extensions for all configured Outlets, Lights, and Switches. Once the platform has been established and the sub extensions created, they can be placed into the appropriate rooms. At present, in order to maintain state, polling would need to be added.
This driver requires the new OS4 Beta and the new lighting SDK.
