Subject: RE: [ukha_d] X10 RF receiver
to
RS232
Now
it's up to the people to say what kind of device they would like. You
define
exact specs and price. Then people vote, who is interested and we have
another
bulk buy :-).
I
found also problem with development that if it takes too long, people find
workarounds or buy some more expensive, but ready available solution and
you
end up disappointed, because when you have product ready, some of the
people
that initially expressed interest don't need it
anymore.
But
I don't want to be negative, just cautious.
I
don't need RF to RS232 receiver, because I don't have homevision, nor
anything
that talks to RS232. Sut there are members of the list with Homevision or
Comfort who might be interested.
Cheers,
Nik
How about an X10 RF receiver
to
RS232? Have you ever made one?
They do exist in US, but they are the
wrong frequency. This is useful
to
connect to controller as there
is
much less latency than using a TM12
receiver and a CM12
interface.

No not at the moment, I am a one man
business, so anything I make
will have to make a profit. It all depends
on how many people want it.
So I imagine you want to receive from a
"example: keyfob type device"
and then input it to your PC, and then
your software does something
with it. Correct?
The only trouble
with electronics design in my experience over many
years, is that
people
want lots of added features, then when its
produced, because of all the
extra development gone into the device,
they say its too
expensive.
Its important to really define at the start EXACTLY what
it is to do,
then add nothing more and only if it can be made at the
price
suggested, design it.
Comments,
anyone?

Gary
