NetLinx, in terms of the Squeezebox, uses TCP/IP from the NetLinx controller to the SlimServer software running on your computer. So you need nothing further than TCP/IP (Ethernet), a NetLinx controller, and some flavor of touchpanel. See www.amx.com for further information on hardware choices. As I said, there's a variety of hardware at a variety of price points. NetLinx systems are automation systems. If you start doing rich control of other items in your home (i.e. Audio/Video systems, HVAC, lighting, etc), then other wiring may be needed, depending on what those devices need (I/R, RS-232, etc). -- Jeff -- Jeff ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jeff's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=49 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18814 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
