You could just diode isolate the ground. It is the same as a relay isolation, but much cheaper (pennies) and cleaner

I am planning on installing the system myself. So all of the parts are available for 120VAC 60Hz Markets? Also, what are people typically using to house the DIN rail modules? Are there any DIN rail enclosures/panels on the market with ground bus bars designed for use with DIN application? I...

We are going to begin building our house soon and I am weighing my options for lighting control. I will be installing Leviton Security and automation, and I am trying to decide on lighting control. I am trying to decide between UPB switches from Leviton and the Omnibus DIN rail system. I would...

Can you add the HAI omnibus system?

21ip adds broadband support, same features as 20p. If you are doing automation in the future, go with the Elk or an HAI...Honeywell does have some automation features and products, and smartphone integration, but you must have an Alarmnet total connect service for the smart phone (usually added...

UPDATE: The best solution I have found so far, use both analog and digital audio feeds for all sources. If there are no analog outs on the source (Apple TV second gen and third gen for example), this little guy works well (extracts the digital audio, converts the signal to analog, then gives...

And wuench, you still get 5.1 to you main zone, or does it drop to 2ch stereo

Does anyone know whether Denon receivers typically allow both the HDMI audio and the analog audio on the same source to be used simultaneously, such that the HDMI is used for main zone and the analog is used in zone 2? Or will both zones use the analog or the digital only? Trying to solve the...

Besides, on the occupancy, I am mostly interested in the lights turning off with no motion rather than turning on with motion

Ok, ignoring the occupancy/security issue...mainly concerned about the garage/bathroom issue

I search the forum over and could not find a post like this.  Here is my question:   Any advice on motion sensors for bathrooms and garages, do's/don't's?  I will be using bosch sensors.  Obviously my concern is humidity and heat.  All sensors will be used for both occupancy and security.   If...

Here is a drawing of something like I mean:

DELInstallations, the integral contacts were an option, but I would still have to change the whole contact.  How exactly do you wire a DEOLR on a HAI panel?  I do have only one device per zone.  I am trying to attach a photo of what I am talking about

drvnbysound, I noticed, just no answer to this question, thx, I understand EOLs and their benefits, just looking for a product that would allow for the use of EOLs at the contact with easy change out to prevent what Mark S said...
