While I agree with Doogie's comments about the ActiveHome software, it
does have one advantage that the other software don't have. It is the
ability to allow scheduling/macro data to be planned on the PC and
downloaded to the CM12U. Once downloaded, the PC is no longer required and
may be disconnected from the CM12U. All the suggested software require a
PC to be switched on continuously running the software.

If a PC is available for the purpose, I agree it is a better way to go.
