    Trouble Shooting a Master Hub

    HAI Omni Pro 11

    I was wondering if anyone with some experience could comment on using the Omni pro as an automation controller or is it better left to handle security and a couple of lights following a zone trip. The HAI web site of course gives a shining review of the Omni Pro 11 as a full blown home...

    this seems to be the place to start on this board so i will I've been using x10 and distributed audio/vidio for quite a while now.
