Quoting Steve Edwards <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I'm using phidgets (www.phidgets.com)
There are various sorts of them out there. I prewired the house with relays controlling every light, outlet, etc., and just hard wired them to low voltage switches initially, but all the control loops come back to the "control room". now I am in the process of making every switch an input and every relay an output and breaking the actual hard wired loops. Right now the plan is a distributed system using nslu2's and several usb modules as controllers spread around. Normally they would take direction from a central box with a database for logging, playback etc, and a web interface. I am trying to figure out a good way though for them to fall back into dumb mode and be able to operate autonomously if the master controller is unavailable. I am also using 1wire sensors from dallas semiconductor for temperature sensing, and they adapt onto the usb bus - see owfs and other open source software to use them. > On Fri, 31 Aug 2007, Dovid B wrote: > >> I am new to the whole controlling devices in your home from asterisk.
