RE: Hometronic Question



Yes I am happy with it - no interfacing yet although I have a module
waiting to be connected to Comfort for basic control (away mode lifestyle,
night mode lifestyle etc). There are now two web server interface modules
that Sensible Heat do - but due to the kit involved, they're not cheap :(
So it's going to be very difficult to justify although it would give me
ultimate control provided I can get it talking OK with
HomeVision/Comfort/xAP etc etc...

Paul.
