Can’t see the forest for the trees?

There’s not much point in having a house full of electronic systems if it takes a degree in electrical engineering to operate them. Home Automation should, if designed and planned properly, enhance your home. The Lighting system should talk to your security system that should a security situation occur, all house and exterior lights come on and flash to attract attention.

When you wish to use your home cinema system, at the touch of one button, lights should dim, projector and sound system should begin playing and the screen should appear as if by magic. This is what makes it fun. It is not as enjoyable if you need 6 remote controls and the help of the gods to watch a movie!!

Should your entry system be activated it would make life easy if all the telephones ring and also be capable of opening the door at a key press. And for extra security the door camera could be viewed on all TV’s in the home.

This is system integration, which is why it is important to work with a company who are capable of integrating the various disciplines into an easy to use home automation system.
