I did that exact thing with GLM-5.3 from Z.ai with a chinese IP Camera. And i did not have to trick it in any way.
I'm curious, how well do z.ai reverse engineers protocols ? Is it good enough that we'll see Chinese device makers creating low cost hardware clones, that connect to western software ?
I had it do the opposite: reverse engineer the protocol for the Eufymake E1 UV printer so that I can connect my own software to it.
It did a pretty good job.
Have you published this anywhere? I've been thinking about doing the same thing.
At least Deepseek V4 Flash does it very good.
