Simon
I'm interested in the fact you are
putting
PIR's on to Port B of
HV
I'm moving away from HV to Comfort for
detection as I find if HV is running a macro it can miss contact
closures
Are you finding any evidence of this ?

PIR
detectors - reply
I'll post a picture
in
the next few days. Thanks for the offer John - I've got a camera
myself. At the moment time's against me. We're wanting to
move
into the house in a few weeks, but there's a few months of work left!!!
That's
why I haven't been to see you recently :o(
I have about 15 PIRs
in
stock, and I'm ordering some more very soon - so there should be plenty to
go
round!!!!
BTW, I didn't want to
come over on this newsgroup as someone who is trying to sell things.
I
just wanted to share some info with you all, and if you wanted any PIRs,
well I
sell them and have them in stock. Only thing is I gave Phil a
'special price'
- I think I might have done them too cheap!!! But what the heck, were
all
friends - £29.95 + VAT
Phil, have you any
'independent' comments on the PIR???

These PIRs are
excellent,
however they're not the total answer to the 'holy grail' of true occupancy
detection. They will tell you if a room is occupied with (slightly)
active person/people but I'm not sure if they would trigger if you fell
asleep
on the sofa watching TV - I think I'd be scared if I woke up cold and in
the
dark! :o) They're probably as good as we're going to get as far as
reliability/cost in the near future.
A while ago there was
a
thread about more sophisticated occupancy detection and detecting the
number of
people in a room. Did anyone go any further and get it to
work???
