The JCL Automation live demonstration home includes a Control4 solution for interior and exterior lighting, thermostat settings, and a digital entertainment center. This home also includes a Home Automation Inc (HAI) Omni II system for the security and alarm panel and X10 controls. The HAI system is linked to the Control4 system via a standard internal telephone cable for an integrated whole-house automation solution.

Note HomeSeer is also installed to show an alternative PC-based approach to home controls. We show video streaming and capture capability and Z-Wave device control with Homeseer. Note Homeseer can also interface with the HAI security panel and control X10 devices.

In addition to HomeSeer, our home PC has Web-Link II, a product of HAI, installed. We suggest you check out both products using the links below to get a clear idea of the capabilities and user interface of each.

    Demo House

    Note: Because this is an inhabited home, we have disabled access to the HAI security panel from Web-Link II and HomeSeer software.

    However, if you have a strong interest in seeing the Control4 Web Navigator interface, please contact us to request a user login for our demo home. You will be expected to be a courteous user and at a minimum turn off any device you activate before logout or exit.
