Whole House Controls Using HomeSeer |
For those interested in using their home desktop or media PC as the single point of control for lights, thermostats, appliances, security cameras, security alarm systems and other devices, HomeSeer is a very flexible home automation solution. While our Harmony 890 Remote Control solution is a great universal remote for your entertainment center that can also control Z-WAVE lighting devices, HomeSeer can control Z-WAVE lighting, thermostats, and security panels from HAI and Elk in additon to a variety of other devices.
HomeSeer also includes an option for voice-activated home automation.
HomeSeer 2.0 home control software from HomeSeer Technologies is the most powerful program of its type. When installed and coupled with the Harmony 890 Remote these two technologies will cover entertainment, lighting, climate (HVAC), and security systems with remote control available via the Internet. Thus offering a level of whole-house automation using wireless Z-WAVE communication similar to the Control4 product line with ZigBee, but at a lower price point. While HomeSeer supports legacy X10 devices and Insteon wireless lighting devices, this solution recommends Intermatic lighting and controls and the RCS Thermostat both controllable with Z-WAVE.
The Z-WAVE Plug-in Lamp Module from Intermatic provides an RF repeater which allows your lamp to be controlled by the HA09C Z-WAVE Handheld Remote or by HomeSeer via the Z-WAVE Z-Stick-2 USB PC Interface. This device allows on/off and dimming control of your incandescent lamp and participates in a Z-WAVE mesh network by retransmitting the wireless signal for reception by other nearby Z-WAVE devices. Installation couldn't be easier, just plug the module into a wall outlet and plug the lamp into the side of the module. A Z-WAVE Appliance module (fluorescent lighting), an In-Wall Switch/Dimmer, and an Outdoor Lighting module are also available from Intermatic. Note: For 3-way dimming applications the Leviton ViziaRF RZI06 Z-WAVE Dimmer and VZ00R Companion Dimmer are recommended. The Intermatic In-Wall Dimmer Switch does not support 3-way switching.
The HA09C Z-WAVE Remote Control also from Intermatic allows you to control your Z-Wave lights and appliances remotely. This unit supports on/off and dim/bright control of up to 6 groups of devices with each group containing up to 16 devices. Note when using the Intermatic HA22 USB PC Interface a primary controller is required to copy the Z-WAVE network information into HomeSeer. This handheld remote functions as a primary controller and will copy the Z-WAVE device information into HomeSeer during setup of the HA22 interface.
The Z-WAVE TZ16 thermostat from Residential Control Systems (RCS) consists of three parts, a Wall Display Unit (WDU), the HVAC Control Unit and the ZWBT Z-Wave Thermostat adapter. The Wall Display Unit provides users functions like a traditional thermostat and connects to the Control Unit by a 4 wire cable. The Control Unit connects at the HVAC system using the standard thermostat connections and provides the thermostatic temperature control of the system. The ZWBT provides connection to the Z-Wave Network.
