    Touchscreen

    One of our installers is converting over to the ELK from the Stargate, he just purchased a Fujitsu 3500 from e-Bay and is going to use it as a touch screen. I had it here for a few hours and cleaned it up an played with it. It's not speedy (500mhz) but it definitely gets the job done. The ELK-RM...

    UPB572 Pre-Orders

    As Michael already has said, they currently can't do security codes (it would be nice to convince Warren to just leave an open field for the string so it can be inserted like the ELK allows you to do with the W800). As for specs, it works just like the original WGL antennas, except the software...

    UPB572 Pre-Orders

    We have been beta testing the WGL UPB572 which is essentially the V572 with UPB output instead of X10. It uses any standard X10 RF remote and works excellent. The software is very easy to use, simply map the X10 code to the UPB link of your choice and you are done. I have just been offered the...

    The frustration of X10

    My favorite story about X-10 is from one of my first months on the tech call phones here. I know it sounds like the text book tech call joke, but this is a true story, I was the tech not a friend or a friend of a friend. This is not an urban legend and Ian, our other long term tech was laughing...

    need more chatter

    The simplest solutions is for the consumer to take advantage of smaller solar solutions (especially in areas like AZ, FL, CA and other southern sunny locations) for things like pool temperature, hot water, a solar cell which powers a window AC perhaps. How can it hurt?

    Thermostat...settings

    I gave Amy at ELK a quick call, she tells me it's impossible to tell the thermostat what temperature sensor to report from. This means that you can't tell it to cool the house only until the bedroom is 70 degrees, if the living room cools first it will turn off, and if it doesn't it will keep...

    Inexpensive UPB Modules

    Sorry Mike, I had the feeling I should have done more then just skim the surface on this thread.

    Inexpensive UPB Modules

    I may be missing the point here, but it would seem like the switches are available as actual Simply Automated switches for less money. SA-USR1W

    RG6 / CAT6 in each Room (need help)

    The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is that Channel Vision sells an HDMI zero loss video extender using a single cable (but it's not coax) The P-1400
