Thanks for the quick reply, seems there is a little more to it than I thought. I've been looking at the wiring diagram on the Valiant website, but to the honest it's beyond me (I'm not an...
Hi All,
I've got a pretty standard combi-boiler (valiant) and controller set-up. I'm thinking of automating the heating by putting in a X10 appliance switch to control the power going to the...

Hi Jimll,

Well, my CM12's packed up and I was wondering if anyone's used the new CM15Pro interface...
If so, i got a few questions: Does it work with homeseer and is the Activehome Pro software any...

Another way you could do this, although it's a bit less elegant, is by using one of the X10 IR Device controllers from Kevin Lo. You could then control the channel changes via X10.
An obvious...
I've had a similar issue, but the only way I can think of getting around it is by using Homeseer to handle the acutual controlling of the light.
i.e. the MS13 sends a signal that is picked up your...
Thans for the advice Toscal, very helpful as usual.
Actually, there's one more thing i could use your help with, i've got some halogen spolights, but when i attach the above switch to it, it flickers. I assume that i need a Appliance wall switch, but...

Hi All,
The wall switch at the bottom of our stairs controls two lights, our living room light, and the light at the top of the stairs. There is also a wall switch at the top of the stairs which...
Thanks for that, but just to clarify, could i simply add the LD11s inside (or near) my existing fusebox, and the get an electrician to wire up the lights.
All the lighting wires must go behind the...
I'm no electrcian, so it's probably above my head, but I am curious, what's involved in installing Din rail modules such as the LD11?
Do you need individual wiring coming from each light to the...

Thanks for the link col182,
Though I assume all of these switchs need a neutral connection which i dont have, but keep us updated on your progress in buying and installing these.
Thanks.

Hi,

Hi Toscal,
Thanks for that, just one query, how would i get a video feed into the other TVs?
They do have xbox's with XBMC on them, but I would prefer some sort of direct input (e.g. via AV...
Hi Marc,
Thanks for all the info.. My needs have slightly changed, am now looking to set up a camera in the nursery as a baby monitor. I'm currently running homeseer 2.
I'm thinking of getting...
Thanks Marc,
That's pretty much exactly what I want to do, how much do you think it would cost to implement a simple one-camera solution with geovision?
Would I need to run a cable from the...
From a newbie point of view, what's involved in setting up an X10 Door bell/chime?
I understand you'll need a Flash module and an X10 door chime, but what kinda of door bell do you need? Can you...
