For some it may be something as simple as remote or automatic control of a few lights. For others,
security may be the central application. Still others may choose to install advanced controllers or use
voice recognition. As a very basic definition, we tend to refer to home automation as anything that
gives you remote or automatic control of things around the home.

Lighting
Probably the most popular control category and a great way to get involved with home automation.
Whether you're looking for ideas for a specific room , or interested in controlling all of your lights with
a whole-home system, give yourself the unlimited freedom to change the light that surrounds you.

Security Systems & Access Control
Have your home call you and/or loved ones if there is an alert status. You can save money on security
monitoring services or even monitor for non-traditional security events like water in the laundry room
or basement. Additionally, our products include devices which will allow you to unlock the front door
to let friends in or close the garage door from your office via the web.

Thermostats
The Aprilaire Communicating Thermostat is your key to simple HVAC automation. The Aprilaire
8870 makes integrating heating and cooling control into all your system proposals easy and profitable.
As always, Aprilaire is compatible with all major home automation systems. Now one thermostat
controls all types of HVAC equipment eliminating guesswork. The 8870 also has a Message Center
display that opens up new possibilities for enhancing for your system. The message center simplifies
set up, addressing and can also display custom messages. It's not total home automation without
HVAC control and the 8870 is the choice of professional integrators.

Home Theater & Entertainment
Just imagine replacing that pile of remotes with just one controller. Now, imagine not having to know
all 10 steps to starting up your home theater - just press the HBO icon and your home automation
products/system will do the rest. Built-in speakers are especially popular with homeowners as they
provide beautiful sound throughout the house while adding no clutter whatsoever.
RTI - K4 Remote Control
The K4 is a color LCD touchpanel designed for flush-mount installations in walls or cabinets. It
provides a self-contained control system for controlling audio/video components, lights, or other
electronic systems in the home. It also displays composite video*, motion JPEG, and web pages -
either full screen or in an adjustable window.
The K4 has it all - it's the first stand-alone touchpanel with infrared control, video monitoring, and
Ethernet connectivity. With a TFT LCD, full VGA resolution, powerful 400MHz 32-bit MCU,
32MB of Flash memory, stereo speakers, microphone, and an infrared receiver, the K4 takes
touchpanel control to new heights.
