Have several of these Velux windows. The rain sensor works well. I've run a cable to each of them to put a reed switch on them to feed back to Idratek. I couldn't find much details on them for...

Hi Chris, I use a two pair cable with each pair screened to extend the cables from a local junction box just above the skirting to anywhere nearby where I would locate the QAI with another local...

Those are the same ones we use with the QAI modules on my install here. They work fine, I use them to monitor the floor temperature with our wet underfloor heating. (To protect the bamboo floor, they...

I'm working on the same thing at the moment, my throughts are to get a LED controller but control it via IR (plus I have a spare Idratek IR sender). So that I can send it signals and let it get on...

Nick,

How did you get on with the 4x4 matrix please? (bit of a time ago this thread, but worth asking! :)

Thanks

I have the Tritech version on trial in one room at the moment, I am not getting any luck with the solid state relay for signalling - I haven't spent much time on this to problem solve it yet, but the...

Thanks for that info. I feel an excuse for getting a machine with WHS now. Only want to run one machine and I am getting fed up with the mish mash of usb drives I am running now with two machines.

(bit more than a couple of days!)

The results were as follows. Over a two day period, all lighting circuits were fed via the three meters. I have also got 15 days worth, but thought I would hit...

On that basis a DDAR wouldn't do what you want - Sonic Blue RIO receiver. Also put out by Dell.

Suggested the Keene amp as you suggested sending out the music out via the cat 5 and amplified to...

Thanks very much for the advice. I'm now getting on with starting to install Idratek now.

Sorry for the delay in reply. Didn't realise how much time is taken up sorting out getting married, plus...

My wife now simply asks then I start going on about how some bit of tech will be so much better, "What will the WAF be then?"

Hello,

Using the pulse count object I have the meters instantaneous consumption displayed. Is there a way of altering how many decimal points an object is displayed with? ie 0.0 or 0.000 etc

Interesting to see that you are looking at using return temperatures. I wrote about considering this on the heating control part of the forum. Since I don't really want to have to bury sensors in all...

Hi,

Sorry that it's taken so long to reply.
