Some of you will tell me that I am nuts and on the wrong 'foot' by using Kaku for my Home Automation, however... it is cheep (most important), to my satisfaction it is very reliable, it has a very wide choice of modules and it fits with my current wall-fitted-actors.
Now, I am currently using the JBMedia software for control, in combination with the Roomie iOs remote and it works fine. Although I am now seeking to control more of my appliances with the use of Events or Triggers. This is not possible with the Lightmanager Studio software unfortunately.
Questions to all of you:
1. What would be a good (and not too expensive) software solution to start controlling my devices (see list at bottem)
2. Which additional devices do I need to control KaKu. ( Iassume the RFXcom)
Requirements: The software needs to be controlled by iOs devices and preferably also with my Harmony 1100.
Current setup:
- Windows 7 Server
- iTach IR transmitter
- Lightmanager Pro
- Plugwise USB stick
- Logitech Harmony 1100 (For controlling Mediacenter from living room only, dedicated remote)
- Toon from Eneco (does not need to be integrated, but would be nice, even better if I can use the interface as remote control)
I have tried Homeseer a few years ago, but the price is high and too much work to develop and design a user interface.
Many thanks!
Alex
