I have a house that I am trying to use a aux input into an amp using a wire that was ran in the wall. The probably is the wire is 18/2 not shielded. So I am getting a lot of static on the line. Re-running it is not an option. Is there any digital convertor or something like that that would let...

I know that Control4 and Crestron are arguably the top in the industry. And from the feature list, I see it can do a lot. But does anyone have any images of a video walkthrough showing the end user UI side? I want to see how one goes from one thing to the other and see how their UI looks.  ...

I am going to have Lutron RA2 lights as well as an ELK system. What is the best garage door opener that I should buy that will let me control it?   Thank you

I bumped into a big problem with the Elk and a limitation of using it with CQC or other controllers. Hopefully someone can figure out a workaround. I have an Elk M1 and I have the dialer set up to user IP (so I am not paying for a phone line). The issue is that when CQC is connected to the Elk...

I am trying to access my M1 Gold via the ElkRP and the network. The device disconnects after verifying identity, and it says "system did not respond" and then invalid information. I tried via secure and unsecure and it doesnt work. I know the cable should be good, because I currently have to...

Is there a flush mounted speaker that will work with the elk, to be able to make announcements such as which zone is violated (fire and burg)?   Thank you

Can smoke detectors work with the Elk Input expander board? What about detectors with a sounder? I want to put the main unit in the basement and the expander board on the 3rd floor. Also what is the maximum length of the wire connecting the input expander to the main unit? I know it would have...

I am switching from my smarthing back to my leviton usb controller. I am having issues joining the VRC0P and a Leviton zwave plus lightswitch. I excluded them from the previous network and I even did a hard reset, but when attempting join using the installer tool I get an error that unable to...

I have an elk m1 gold that while it is found on the network times out when I try connecting to it. I tried rebooting but it didnt help. I have a wireless zone that I want to bypass (I really want to remove but cant access the programming). When I do bypass 26 bypass it errors out. None wireless...

Does the Caséta Pro, have a tablet or something like that to be able to control all the devices and set a schedule or only the app?   Thank you

Is there a relay board with multiple (more then 4) dry relays that get triggered by one input? I know I can have multiple relays all from the same source but I am trying to keep things neat. So would want it one input terminal. Thank you

How do you use your home automation? Most of what users use that they say is home automation is really home control. Basically a way for you to centrally control different devices. I am looking to see what people automate or use logic rules for. For example I have my AC tied into my alarm that...

As of last year, C-Bus is no longer be sold in the united states. What other systems exist that allow all the "switching" to be done by the panel, with just a a signalling device in the room?     Thank you

Are there any controllers besides Cestron and Savant that can control Wolf and Sub Zero brand appliances?   Thank you

 have been out of the loop of HA news, for the past 6+ months. I was looking for a system that best mimics the high end brands and that would let a lot of customization that can be used by me personally as well as if I want to have cool features (with logic rules) to sell to customers. It would...

It would need to support external sensors. It is a new set up, so no existing HA controller or technology. I would like it to be able to easily remotely controlled. But it can be a stand alone unit. Thanks

While not directly HA connected, I home that some of the exisiting technologies may be able to help me.   I am trying to set up a way to monitor an oven to see if the temperature drops below a certain degrees. I would like auto alerts as well as the ability of checking up the current...

Can I create an Elk rule, that will disable/enable a different rule?   Thank you
