My Node0 is to be demolished!!

["ewenjc" <ejc7@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The bad news is I'll have to relocate my cat5 and coax patch panel,
alarm box etc (hopefully by shortening the runs rather than recabling,
depends on location of new node0).

The good news is I have wife approved budget to upgrade (within reason).
Just not sure whether to start again or upgrade existing items.  I could do
with a home automation supplier that understands what I have already.  Any
suggestions?

I currently have (mostly 14 years old)
- X10
- Comfort
- One analog camera currently not connected
- Coax based TV distribution with sky/virgin/wd_tv_live in lounge
- Harmony remote 525 x 3
- SONOS x 6
- Regular heating 7 day timer and TRVs
- Relays that can open conservatory vents

Would like
- z-wave
- New alarm with access to alarm / z-wave stuff over internet
- 3 camera accessible online and on local TVs and maybe footage stored to
NAS
- HD TV distribution (maybe over cat5) with sky/virgin/wd_tv_live in node0
- Three new remotes as can't get harmony 525 and the harmony touch is not
so good.
- SONOS x 6 - THE ONLY THING THAT DOESNT NEED UPDATING :)
- Some sort of heating control that allows setback when away / frost
protection when on holiday and maybe more intelligent heating based on
outside temp and occupancy.
- Conservatory vents close automatically if temp over x and not raining.
- z-wave enabled back door lock? So we can let people in remotely.

Exciting times!

If I move Node0 do I have to increment it to Node1 or would Node0.1 be more
appropriate ;)
