The locks report status whenever you press the lock/unlock button on the lock, or manually lock/unlock the lock. So the status in your software should always be up to date. Currently you need a PC interface that supports the "beaconing" feature of Z-Wave. The ones I know that work are the...

Hi, No, we will not remove the existing 3rd party solution. The iPhone app will not be expensive, it will be in line with iPhone apps from other vendors. Beta testing will be starting very soon. -Rich HomeSeer Tech

Sorry about our site. The datacenter that hosts our server had a fire in their electrical room which killed the power. They say everything should be back by Mon morning. We have a backup server running, but only the website is available there. To bad they have 5 datacenters and we have 3...

Yes it should. Note that we sell our special version of this interface. Our version has the special "Installer" firmware that allows for enhanced monitoring of your network (see our Z-Seer software). I do not know what version of firmware is on the ControlThink version. -Rich HomeSeer Tech[...

W do have a plugin for this, it should be posted by Monday. -Rich HomeSeer Technologies

We don't need a speaker client for CE, we send the audio directly over the network to the CE client. The mic audio is also routed over the network and back to HS for VR. This means the speaker client runs on the HS system. -Rich HomeSeer Technologies

As Mark stated, it will run on the Elk, and it should work on any CE device. We also have a Windows client. The sytem uses a seperate piece of software that runs unders windows that allows you to design the screens. We have not been happy with HTML or flash interfaces for touchscreens, so we...

Here is a nice matrix of all available Z-Wave wall switches so you can see all the differences. There are quite a few. This also lists all the warrantees. -Rich

HomeSeer can talk to both the Elk and Russound so you could use that to create the triggers and actions you want. -Rich

I just want to add a correction. The Z-Troller fully supports multiple hops over z-wave. It will route as necessary to get scene commands to all required destination devices. Rich Helmke HomeSeer Technologies LLC

The scene controllers use a single button for each scene. Press the buttom and the scene is activated and the LED goes on. Press it again and all the devices go off and the LED goes off. The zone controllers have the exact same features and are programmed in the same manner. The only difference...

I posted some details on how these controllers work over at this link. I won't repeat the information here. Take a look. http://board.homeseer.com/showthread.php?t=119541 I will mention that the next update of HS will have really nice support for the scene controllers. You will be able to...

We have not tried the NComputing stuff on the PRO-100, but it should work. RedRadio has an in-wall touch screen based on the NComputing stuff, looks pretty nice. We have no problem customizing the OS for our dealers if they need something that is not in the base OS. We are putting together some...

Yes, connect them to an RS485 to RS232 hub, then to HomeSeer. We have a new free plugin that will then control them. Do not connect them to seperate serial ports. -Rich HomeSeer Technologies LLC

I'm curious why you say "is not HomeSeer". HS is the perfect application for this. You can create your own web pages in html, asp, or aspx. Its easy to control everything with a custom page. I can post a sample in any format, if you like. I doubt you will find anything else that is more flexible...
