Next webinar will be 5/4, 6:30pm PST-8:30pm PST. There might be some overseas folks joining, so we'll be using either TeamSpeak or an Asterisk server for the audioportion. If there's folks that don't have computer headsets & mics, we'll also use the regular conference call #.
Signup for this one will be slightly different as the gotowebinar trial expired, so we'll fall back to gotomeeting as it was easier to use anyhow. Please PM me with your name, email address, and whether you currently own CQC or are just interested in learning more about it. I'll send out the logistics over email 24 hours before the blessed event.
Thanks.

Welcome to the "Intro to HA using CQC & the Elk Automation Panel" course.
This online gotomeeting & teleconference is designed to be a 120 minute overview as to how to perform HA & HT using CQC and the Elk automation panel. It is targeted to the newbie who wants to know how to do HA. It is not recorded as it generally sucks to try and synch up the audio teleconference and the video, besides it creates a whopping big file.
There is a dialin phone # and listening is critical as that's where the information is disseminated.
There is no "HA 201" as that's what our monthly user group webex's are designed to be.
Requested but not mandatory prep
1) Pre-read this powerpoint PDF, it's what I'll use during the first 20-30 mins of the session.
2) As many of the tutorial videos as you can stand. There's 24 of them now, ideally watch all 4 of the installation ones and the first 2 of the action, event, and graphical interface sections. That's 10 total.
Agenda
This online gotomeeting & teleconference is designed to be a 120 minute overview as to how to perform HA & HT using CQC and the Elk automation panel. It is targeted to the newbie who wants to know how to do HA.
There is a dialin phone # and listening is critical as that's where the information is disseminated. We're also setting up a PC connection capability so our overseas brethren can join us without the exhorbitant callin fees.
The draft agenda is as follows:
1) Overview of what I did, why I did it, and how it helped. 5mins
2) CQC Overview & Architecture 5min
2) How to physically hook devices up to an HTPC for control - 5mins
3) How to tell CQC you have devices connected, and use it to easily create and render a screen to control them in realtime - 45mins
4) How to setup ElkRP to monitor your devices 15mins
5) How to use CQC's event manager and the Elk together to perform the following: 15mins
5a) scheduled tasks (i.e., irrigation, turn off all devices at midnight)
5b) triggered tasks (i.e., turn off all devices when you ArmAway the Elk. turn on the light when you open the closet door)
That's 90 minutes of content. The remaining 30 minutes is intentionally unallocated as questions in various places take up the rest of the time.
See you there!
