Complete Home Control
A complete home control system is cutting edge technology, particularly if the system talks via Internet protocol (IP). The first benefit of an IP-enabled home control system is affordability. Because they utilize a standard Internet communications language to unite a variety of products, these systems are less expensive than systems that use proprietary communications protocol. The second benefit is a simpler, quicker installation. Any IP-enabled device, be it a security camera or a whole-house music system, can join the network easily without any fancy programming. Third, you can easily access any product in your home via a Web-enabled phone, computer, or PDA.
Seamless Connections
Security systems, heating/cooling systems and other systems can seamlessly interact with the lighting control system, and enable homeowners to control all those systems through any Internet browser at home or remotely via the Internet. This is especially useful for the vacation home or for the home owner who travels frequently.
So compelling is the ability to conveniently control every system and electronic component of a home, you’ll find more manufacturers offering complete home control systems in 2003. Many companies used to offer only processors and touchscreens to control a home (systems from other companies had to be integrated into these control schemes), now offer their own thermostats, intercom systems, lighting control systems, music distribution systems, and more.
