    Help?

    Can anyone provide the physical dimensions of a Universal Module (EM506) in either inches or mm? I don't have one in my junk box any more and can't find the information online... Thanks, Paul

    EHX Ramblings

    I was at the show yesterday for about 6hrs and left feeling a little underwhelmed. Attendance seemed way down from EHX last year in Anaheim. I think the Long Beach convention center may be larger so its possible things were just spread out more, but while most booths had a steady trickle of...

    Insteon Lights Turning Off

    Trying to understand why Insteon lights turn themselves off after turning them on manually when Elk M1XSP Serial interface is connected to the Insteon 2414S Powerlinc? I've been using Insteon & Elk for some time in my own home, but have recently been working with PowerHome to create links &...

    INSTEON

    Just curious if anyone has been installing Insteon for customers yet? I've converted around 80% of my own house (the remaining 20% is usually in flux testing UPB, Z-Wave, Lutron, etc) and am finding that I like it more and more. The switch based scene lighting seems to work well once setup and...

    Keypadlinc Support

    I've got some time to play with my own setup today and want to focus back on Insteon/Elk lighting. Have skimmed the M1XSP/Insteon doc and searched a couple message boards, but couldn't find for sure that this is supported or not. The intent is to have the Elk aware of button presses on...

    CRM Software

    Does anyone have experience or recommendation for CRM (Customer Relationship Management) software. One of my commercial clients is a US based manufacturer that manufactures the actual product in China and then distrubutes to the US (and soon other countries) using already established retail...

    Scale Images of Elk Products

    I scaled a bunch of the Elk Products that I commonly use to print full size images for use in laying out my installations. Thought some others may find these useful so have converted to PDF. They keypads & touchscreen are included too to aid in wall placement. They're zipped into a single...

    Tool identification & theft prevention

    What are you doing to mark your tools and ensure that they stay in your possession out on job sites??? So far all I've lost are a couple hand tools and it seems like every Sharpie that I leave laying someplace for more than 5mins! I don't think any of these have been really lost to intentional...

    Tying it all toghether?

    I'm starting down the road of significant changes with my HA install and would like to solicit some discussion & opinions. I’m currently running HS2 on a Dell PowerEdge 1800 server and have installed an Ocelot and SECU modules for I/O. MainLobby provides the main UI running on a 10â€...

    ELK M1 is in the house!

    Ok, actually it's only on the bench in the garage, but what a pleasure to work with and configure so far... I picked up a M1 + Ethernet & Serial interfaces a few weeks back when ordering a setup for a customer. Found some time to get things plugged in today along with some UPB gear and have...

    Some history and a facelift for sbsmarthomes.com

    For those who don't know me (or my story), I'm gearing up a Home Automation integrations business in central California. I'm a long time IT guy by trade. Started with PC & printer repairs in the late 80's, then started with networking shortly after. Did lots of cabling back in the Coax...

    Gentner AP800 noise cancellation for VR

    I posted some MP3 recordings on the HS board that demonstate the noise cancelling setup I've installed for using voice recognition with HomeSeer. A brief summary: Crown MB3 mics installed into the walls of 8 rooms connected back to a Gentner AP800 audio conferencing mic mixer. This mixer...

    HomeSeer Message Board Down?

    I just tried the HS message board and it appears to be down. The www.homeseer.com site is still up... can anyone else get to the message boards? A traceroute from my location dies right away like it can't resolve DNS. Paul
