Chris,

How many water meters from JetRange have you installed? Shame we couldn't find a more basic flow meter with pulse output rather than a full fledged water meter.

Have you insulated all...

Chris,

I had the same feeling as you that 10L per pulse was possibly a bit coarse for my requirement and after a lot of searching was coming to the same conclusion as you, but then came across the...

Chris,

Many thanks for putting this post together. I know what I will be doing tonight when I get home after work! Did you install solar thermal, solar PV or both during your build? Is the house...

Hi Chris,

Any chance you could list and link the products you purchased from the above e.g. black bulb, thermistors, pulse flow sensors?

Many thanks

Paul

Afternoon all,

Resurrecting an old thread as it relates to what I am trying to determine. I have recently replaced an old non-condensing boiler with a wonderful Viessmann model with weather...

I came across this product by accident. It is a six way power socket with surge protection, nothing unusual so far, however four of the sockets can be controlled via a network connection. The unit...

Cortex is very lightweight and so will work on pretty much anything that is available today and can itself run Windows XP or Windows 7. Do you intend for this to be dedicated machine or run anything...

I've been using Get plc momentary switches for a few years and they offer grid configuration as well in a wide range of finishes and combinations. They also look very close to the single switch TLC...

Sorry to dig up quite an old thread but the information is pertinenet to my question.

I am just about to replace by old gas non-condensing boiler with a thermal store and Viessmann gas condensing...

Very interesting Chris and I hope Viv gives some input as well to your findings.

My / our long terms plan is to extend our property to include a garden room (think more solid conservatory) and I...

Everything is now finalised with my Fit-PC. Cortex is up and running connected to the PC via USB and I also have a USR Robotics modem connected, again via USB. The machine has been running for a few...

Not yet Chris but the FitPC isn't in its final location. When it is then I need UPS power for both the PC and Idratek so on my to-do list

My new FitPC is all setup and running Cortex (even remembered to transfer the key from the old PC for a change). First impressions and I am very impressed. The construction of the FitPC is very good,...

For a long time my Cortex PC has been a general purpose machine with a conviluted setup. Now my home automation system is at a size where reliability is everything and deserves to be on a dedicated...

I went with the US Robotics 5637 as it was discussed in another thread as being able to resolve caller ID in the UK and work with Cortex,...

Just to follow-up on my previous post. I have now installed Windows 8 RTM (I have a Microsoft Technet subscription), Cortex appears to run just fine without any problems. Although I'm sure not many...

My current Cortex PC is running Windows 7 64bit and has been doing so for about a year. I can't remember any issue with the configuration either during the initial installation or in the time since,...

Thanks for sharing your experience Kevin. Be interesting to see Viv's response to your observations

Paul

Nice work on the new web desgin. I was thinking only the other day that the old style was looking a bit dated, although nothing else was wrong just from the aesthetics perspective. Nice job though...

Karam,

Thanks for the update. Might still be useful to me to provide caller-id

Paul

Thanks Chris,

That is pretty much how I have setup mine, the loft is a room from the landing in Cortex the loft hatch is a door. Reed switch is waiting to be installed but all working and linked...

Morning all,

Spent the last week doing quite a bit of work in the loft firstly boarding then running cables to various parts to create size areas. As I'm retrofitting my home with Idratek I find a...

Really aimed at Karam, did you progress this any further? I want to get Caller ID into Cortex to display around the house and was thinking Meteor > xAP > Cortex until I found this thread. I'm using a...

Thanks Chris that gives me some more options. Hope we've given you some ideas on your original questions

Cheers Neil, looks like what I need just need to run the cables and place a power feed into the wall where the weather station is placed
