Solder,

What's that... I am playing about so much, some of the wires are wrapped
and
taped.Ready to order cat  5 and rj11 sockets from let automate, then it
will
be fixed properly. I've run out of relays and need more to handle the dvd
and pc to cctv switching for audio, video is already switched.

Motion detection through the UCM ...tell me more. (is it
homewatcher/webcam). I am interested in the UCM but have to convince my
good
wife of the necessity, after paying for the sockets and cabling...

At the moment just trying to get a doorbell zone on comfort to identically
copy a doorstation press...

And my good wife is still waiting on some painting to be done. Its more fun
playing with wires.

Campbell
