Honeywell T9 User manual

Honeywell Thermostats
Crestron Home™ Driver
Base Model:T9
Device Type:Platform Extensions
Version:1.2.0
Notes & Recommendations
This driver will control a Honeywell T-series thermostat (examples include but are not
limited to T5, T6 Pro, T9, and T10). The thermostat will have to be paired with the
Honeywell Home app first. Please refer to the instruction manual for the thermostat
that you have for thermostat setup instructions. This driver talks to the thermostat with
the cloud so an active internet connection will be necessary. In addition, a (free)
Honeywell developer account will need to be registered in order to properly set up this
driver. A developer account is needed because of access limitations imposed by
Honeywell. The owner will also have to make available the thermostats for Crestron
control through a web browser (explained later). The driver will poll for feedback from
Honeywell’s server approximately every 5 minutes. This is a restriction set by
Honeywell.

Installation/Upgrade Instructions
The first step is to make sure the thermostat is paired with the Honeywell Home app on
a phone/tablet. Once the thermostat(s) are paired, create a Honeywell developer
account(https://developer.honeywellhome.com/). Once the developer account has been
created, log in and go to My Apps > Create New App. The App Name can be anything
you want and for the Callback URL. For this driver use None (case-sensitive) and press
Save Changes.
A new entry should show up, if you click inside it, you will get your Consumer Key and
Consumer Secret. Copy both down as you will need to provide this information to the
driver.

Generate Authorization Code
You will next need to generate an authorization code. Open a web browser and put in
the URL, replacing { } with values specific values:
https://api.honeywell.com/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id={apikey}
&redirect_uri={redirectUri}
Replace {apikey} with the Consumer Key that you wrote down earlier and replace
{redirectUri} with none. An example of what the URL may look like after doing that
replacement is:
https://api.honeywell.com/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=yourapike
yhere&redirect_uri=none
