I did a install a while ago with a shelly but I do not understand how to do this install? I assume this can be installed on the wifi module from mitsubishi?

Like is it suitable with the: MAC-587IF-E?

Hi - did you end up resolving this @woodsbox?

I have a basic question - can you flash this onto a Shelly and then replace the official Mitsubishi unit? Would I then wire the Shelly to the plug? And then the Shelly would replace that Mitsubishi unit?

Is there anyway to just log in through MELCloud?

@woodsbox hi, what exactly are you missing in the project? Shelly can work, in theory. The mitsubishi original unit is cloud based solution. It queries the device status every minute and control it bu predefined shedule.
This project gives you absolute freedon - voice control, any automations with Home App etc.

@wazzapnz - no, its not a clone of MELCloud device, it just uses the same communication port CN105. You cant replace it and expect it will connect MELCloud.
Actually, strange, if you need (so much limited) MELCloud expirience, just use original MAC IF device

Thanks @d4rkmen - much appreciated. Basically it replaces the original MAC IF device which I understand and the extra functionality seems to be well worth it.

I'm happy to lose my existing device, but am at another stop point...

Can you please send me a link to the plug that I need? Also - how do I know which pins of the shelly to wire to the plug?

You can get components and to crimp the connector by yourself:
JST PAP-05V-S housing
JST SPHD-002T-P0.5 contacts
or find ready pigtails on market
