RE: CBus Homegate

["Dean Barrett" <dean@xxxxxxxxx>]

Homegate is an application that runs on Windows and communicates directly
to
CBus via RS232 or Ethernet adaptor.

Pages in Homegate are displayed either on the host machine as my
screenshots
or via Clipsals ServerX webserver that i believe is written in Java.
ServerX
sits on the host machine too.

ServerX generates jpg snapshots of the Homegate page and creates an HTML
page with a map over it - it translates the map co-ordinates to locations
on
the Homegate page. ServerX refreshes HTML page each time a co-ordinate is
triggered.

Hope this makes sense.

I'm not sure I understand. Is Homegate an application that you use to
design web pages that are generated by a different server ? If so how
does the server communicate with CBus ?

Thanks
