HAI Omni - Easiest Way to Send IR Commands (drapery control unit)

[Carlton Bale]

What's the simplest way to get my HAI Omni to send an IR command on a schedule? I want to be able to transmit a "drapery close" or "drapery open" IR command in my living room at certain times of the day.
 
Thanks!

I'm not sure of the "easiest" way, but one to consider would be via the Leviton BitWise controllers that integrate directly with the Omni:

Thanks. I didn't realize they were now under Leviton as well. It seems this would work, though the cost of the BC4 controller is higher than I'd hoped.

You could put something together to send IR codes based on contact closures from the Omni.  Libraries exist to do that on an Arduino board. $6 at Microcenter for an Uno board.  Could even be done with the cheaper board that doesn't include USB.  Not the simplest though....
