Version 1.5 is now available from the Warped Code Cellar at: http://home.att.net/~ASchw HOUSE/2 is an OS/2 Warp 3.0 and Warp 4.0 program to control the home automation interface model CM11x/CM12x made by X10. New with version 1.5 of HOUSE/2 are: - Support for Two-Way modules, find out the ON/OFF/DIM status of a module by requesting status. - Reports burnt-out bulbs if using LM14A modules. - Thermostat support. - Single page module and macro edit windows. - External module database. - Support for resolutions up to 1280x1024. - Many additional enhancements and suggestions implemented. Visit the URL listed above to get more information on home automation using OS/2. The new version has been uploaded to the incoming directory of BMT Micro, Hobbes and Compuserve's GO OS2BVEN. It may be a few days until it is moved to the regular locations and available through the links on my homepage. Although I am not connected in any way to X10, I would like to point out that X10 appears to have perpetual sales on the CM11A starter kits. These systems are great bargains, easy to setup and use and fully supported by OS/2 native software.
