So I hadn’t been too big on doing any home automation but for some crazy reason I really got a bug about setting up some automation.

The setup consists of the following: A Insteon ToggleLinc Relay and few SwitchLinc – Insteon switches for lights A Venstar 7-day programmable Thermostat and Insteon Thermostat control A pair of Insteon Access Points A Insteon PowerLinc USB Controller My first attempt for software was MControl.

What a way to start the day… Woke up to an alarm sounding in the office. Turns out a hard drive on my media server died this morning. Great. Mark my words that is THE LAST MAXTOR drive I ever buy.

Bleck.
