I'm currently using Pronto TSU9600's for my remotes and I can control not only all my A/V equipment with it, but I can do two-way communication (via TCP/IP) with my OmniPro II also. HAI made a module for the Pronto remotes that basically gives you the same touchscreen interface that the OmniTouch had on it. You could also modify the code and do your own interface and talk with the OPII as well. This works great for activating lighting scenes at the same time you fire up the TV for a movie or for turning on outside lighting when you fire up the hot tub.
This brings me to the HTX2. I started looking at switching over from the Pronto to the HTX2 for control, but there is no built in functions for controlling the OPII. Sure, you can use the Snaplink app to change your lighting, then launch the HTX2 "remote" app and do your A/V control, but that's clunky and not integrated. I want to control lighting as an integral step of a control macro in the HTX2.
Since the BC4/HTX2 support pre-made "scripts", this is completely doable.
Question to HAI: Will the HTX2 be getting the ability to control the OPII directly?
