Which automation technology do you propose
Posted: Tue Jan 05, 2016 10:32 am
Hi,
Currently my automation is 'limited' to:
- table lamps
- front gate
- garage gate
- alarm system
From the electrical cabinet, wires go to all light switches. The wires go back from the switches to this cabinet, where they are attached to a 230V dimmer or a teleruptor. The output of the dimmers then goes to transformers which convert it to 12V.
I want to add some automation to this setup, so I can control my 'main' lights and not only the table lamps.
What do you guys recommend ? I was thinking about using a PLC.
I am already using HomeSeer, so the solution for the cabinet has to be 'homeseer-compliant' (which a PLC is not ...)
I look forward to hearing your recommendations.
Best regards,
Kriz
