Re: [ECS] ECS X-10 Interface... David Rabin Sun, 03 Jan 1999 14:18:24 -0600

i would buy homevision.
it has ir, and digital inputs and outputs. you can add analog inputs.
if you buy homevision pc it needs a computer turned on running ecs but if
you buy regular homevison you can run its software as standalone without a
computer turned on so you have more flexibility (tho this may be heresy on
the ecs list) and i have homevision and like it...tech support is
unbeatable and it works fine (i am told) with all versions of ecs.the ir is
a learning ir and it works fine for me and i have never had an ir signal it
didnt work with...
