This type of hardware is wonderful stuff. It is distributed by
a number of companies. The only one "I" know of that sells a computer
interface is Heathkit, I am sure there are more..
Heath Company
P.O. Box 8589
Benton Harbor, MI 49022
There unit is by X-10, requires a serial port (COMM 1 or 2) and was
around $40. It can access modules 1-16 on all HOUSE CODES.
All in all great stuff, I have written my own interface to allow
COMM 1-4. All the required DOC to write your own code is provided
by X-10.
BTW: X-10 (USA) Inc. X-10 Home Controls Inc.
185A LeGrand Ave. 1200 Aerowood Drive, Unit 20
Northvale, N.J. 07647 Mississauga, Ontario L4W 2S7
(201)-784-9700 (416)-624-4446
Hope this helps. This is a frequent request on the NET :-).
