Just wanted to add more details regarding my situation and local API availability on the AZAI wifi modules. I found this information in another thread:
Hi folks! I finally came to the solution after some thorough reading of Daikin’s support documentation. In short, AZAI6WSCDKA and AZAI6WSDKB do not support local connections at all - they are only able to connect through Daikin’s cloud services. Only the AZAI6WSPDKC supports local connections via port 3000, and I’m happy to report that I have purchased it and successfully connected it! Any Daikin hardware must be “DKN plus” in order to have a local connection.
I personally have the “B” model and it definitely does not support a local API server.
I would consider buying the “C” model, but the form factor is bigger with ports sticking out. I barely got the “B” model to fit under the mini-split cover – I’m sure the “C” wouldn’t fit. And since this is for an Airbnb, I don’t want unsightly wires and modules on the wall next to my units.
So for now, I don’t have a good solution. I can go with the “C” modules, but then have an aesthetics problem. I can stick with “B”, but without an HA cloud integration, I’m stuck using the DKN Cloud NA app and can’t do HA control/automations. If only I could find a source that actually has the old BRP modules in stock.
