Hey, please excuse my ignorance, I’m trying to take a deep dive in tot his and I’m a little lost.
I have an automation system for my pool and I find that there is Home assistant integration.
I researched and see all I need is a RS485 to serial wifi to connect to my pool equipment serial interface and then run Home Assistant on an old laptop.
Did some ChatGpting and I see a small adapter that is really recommended is the EW11A.
I found this kit on Amazon.ca, what I’m confused about is how do I easily power this thing? What do I need to buy in addition to my link to also provide power? Could you link it to me please or anything that would help me understand, I’m also okay spending a little more to make this any easier.
I see mention of cutting a USB A cable and using the red and white wire but is there a cleaner way?
Thank you for any help!
