Liebherr HomeDialog

Post by **MindBender** » Tue Oct 21, 2008 1:43 pm

We are in the market for a new refrigerator and I stumbled upon a feature on some Liebherr equipment called 'HomeDialog'. This feature enables one fridge to display and monitor the status of another fridge, which may be located in a cellar or another remote place you don't visit on a daily basis.

It communicates over the mains power line and it's supposed to be compatible with any other 'Net@Home' networked appliances. But 'Net@Home' doesn't sound familiar to me at all. Does anybody know more about this?

The same use as Domotica is in general: None whatsoever. But it's fun

I mean, does it show you how much food there is stored, or how empty it is, or what the temperature is? (my german is baddd)

It shows you the temperature, allows you to set a new desired temperature and it warns you if the temperature is too high or if somebody didn't close the door properly.
