Review on πŸ”Œ JBtek USB to RS485 Converter Adapter: High-Quality ch340T Chip, 64-bit Windows 7 Compatibility by Joshua Coulter

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Can connect to my Pentair Pool Board for the first time.

My EasyTouch pool stopped working and I didn't want to buy another one as they are expensive. I installed Raspbian Stretch. NODEJS and nodejs-PoolController on my Raspberry Pi. I connected a JBtek USB to RS485 adapter to my Intellitouch communication port on -Data dn +Data. Launched nodejs-PoolCoontroller and Viola! Now I can see and control my equipment. Added Smartthings Device Handler and now I can see/control my pool equipment in my Smartthings app.

Pros
