EdiManager

Command line utility for controlling Edimax plugs and cameras remotely through Edimax cloud service.

How it works

Sends commands and receives data from Edimax WiFi plugs and IP cameras using Edimax cloud service. Using EdiManager does not require being in the same network as the device nor configuring router port forwarding. Edimax plugs and cameras maintain connection to the cloud servers using undocummented protocol. EdiManager uses this protocol to control Edimax devices. Device is identified by Device ID (MAC address on a sticker). Access is authenticated with password.

Usage

           EdiManager.exe DeviceId [Command] [Options]

DeviceId : Device Identifier, typically MAC address printed on sticker
Command  : Commmand executed on device. If no command is provided, default
           'probe' command will be used. EdiPlug commands:
               on            Switch on EdiPlug device
               off           Switch off EdiPlug device
               toggle        Toggle EdiPlug
               pluginfo      Output device info
               getschedule   Get schedule
               power         Get current power consumption
               history       Get power consumption history
           Edimax IP camera commands:
               image [fn]    Get camera snapshot and save to jpg file with
                             name fn. If fn is not specified the
                             default name name will be used:

               web [port]    Setup HTTP tunnel to access camera web
                             interface through local TCP port. If no port
                             is specified default 9999 port will be used
                             and web interface will be available at
                             http://localhost:9999

Edimanager works with EdiPlugs SP1101W and SP2101W and cameras IC-3116W,
IC-3140W, IC-7001W but should work with other Edimax camera models as well.

Switching EdiPlug example:
        EdiManager.exe 74DA38XXXXXX toggle -p 1234
Downloading camera snapshot example:
        EdiManager.exe 74DA38XXXXXX image -p 1234 -m snapshot.jpg
