What Next?
 
 
  If you're new to home automation, here are a few suggestions to help you get started:  
   
 

1) Organize!  Take a good look at your home, room by room, inside and out, and decide what you want to automate.  Would it make sense to have the lights turn on and off at designated times, dusk and dawn or just when you come and go?  Would you like the thermostat to set back automatically when nobody is home?  Do you want the bedroom shades to open when it's time to wake?  Make a list!

 
   
  2) Choose your devices.  Take your list and decide exactly what devices you'll need.  Table and floor lamps require plug-in lamp modules but ceiling fixtures will require a special wall switch.  Appliance modules will be needed to power on TVs and stereo systems.  Motion sensors will help you track arrivals and departures.   
   
 

3) Choose your interface(s).  Once you've selected your devices, you'll need to install the appropriate PC interface(s) so HomeSeer can 'talk' to these devices.  Each technology will require its own PC interface.  Click the link below for a complete list of technologies, devices and PC interfaces that are compatible with HomeSeer and don't hesitate to contact us for assistance.

4) Configure HomeSeer software.  After the hardware is installed, the fun really begins!  Go ahead... experiment.  Create a lighting 'scene' that's just perfect for watching movies.  Create an event that turns off all the lights and sets the thermostat down whenever you leave the house.  Have HomeSeer turn the TV on and tune to the sports channel every day after dinner.  You decide.  The possibilities are endless!
