Wouldn't the IR blaster circuit overpower my emitters though? I only have 3 of them.

Would something like this work?

MonoPrice.com is also a very good site. They have the cheapest (in price) cables I've seen, and the quality is excellent.

I was going to install my Ocelot at my church to be the brains behind my "idiot resistant" theater there. I got the Ocelot all programmed, and hooked up a single emitter to the Ocelot that was connected to the projector. That worked fine. So I put in my Y-Adapter to split the signal two ways...

I am going to setup an Ocelot and an SECU-16i in a someone's theater. The plan is to have a box in the equipment cabinet that has some buttons on the front that allow the person to turn the system on/off with a press of the button. The button will be connected to an SECU-16i and an Ocelot. The...

Could you explain more how you did that? I would like to run wires, but I don't have the time to do it right now.

With HAL in the basement, it occured to me that we could use some wireless speakers so HAL can give us announcements. Does anyone have recommendations on a certrian model?

//A bit off topic Recently on Mythbusters, they were able to defeat 3 types of security devices. They defeated a thermal sensor by hanging a frame of glass over it. To defeat a sonic sensor, they held up a bed sheet in the direction of the sensor as they walked through the room. What I...

I beleive that Smarthome recommends that you use a relay switch on Low-Voltage lighting, as transformers are not made to be dimmed.

I would also like to note that by default, the search only searches posts from the last 30 days and newer. It would be great if it could be set to search everything by default.

Another product is HAL, who can do the same thing that Rupp mentioned. It has better speaker independent VR (at least that's what I've heard). With HAL there is no training involved, so it's great if you have more than one person controlling the lights. The downside is that it not as flexible...

I am planning on using a SECU-16i connected to some buttons to trigger actions in the Ocelot. I already have the buttons, and am going to get a power supply for the SECU-16i from RadioShack today/tomorrow. The buttons will be used to control the theater equipment by having the Ocelot send IR...

I beleive all the keypadlincs do is transmit a signal (X10 or Insteon) when a button is pressed. So your work around should work. Assign each button an address and program the ELK to react to the address.

I contacted Electron yesterday and here's what he said: I use the View Image workaround also.

This is a pretty big thing, it was just on my local news channel.

I was going to get the SECU-16i, becuase it has 16 inputs. A keypad with 16 buttons would be great, but I can work with something that has less.

Hmm, okay. I was looking at This diagram, and it looked like when you pressed a button, let's just say button 1, it would make a complete circuit using connectors one and 5. Does the keypad need power, since it is scanning many time a second? Are there other keypads that do what I want them...

As some of you may know, I am going currently working on a theater project. For IR control, I plan to use an Ocelot, with buttons hooked up to an SECU-16. After looking around, I found out about keypads, and they use a matrix system. Basically, one button connects two sets of contacts. So I...

Alright, I think I figured this out. Here's what I plan to do. I am going to purchase an SECU-16i and hook it up to the Ocelot. The SECU-16i will look for when someone pushes a button. I will have a small pannel of buttons near the door, labeled like power on, power off, and whatnot. 1 (or...

You could then seperate using fixed when you import it into Excel to get it a bit more organized.
