Simon,

I can recomend the VIOM as well. I have been using it for some months now
w=
ith Homeseer. Although as Kevin says it can be programmed to work
standalon=
e as well. Very reliable piece of kit.

Photo of my unit with two relay boards, I will have two VIOMs when I get
th=
e second one mounted...

for external scene lighting (SON lamps) as well.

Hi Simon,

If you are happy with a serial control link then take a look at a=20
product from Phaedrus called the VIOM this is a very capable input=20
output device with 16 inputs, 16 outputs and 8 timers plus an expansion=20
relay board option.  It has some inbuilt 'smarts' too to handle local=20
actions.  Cost is =A342 +Vat  (=A315 for the relay board)

Very popular in the UKHA community
