Users / New house design with automation in mind
« on: July 31, 2010, 10:44:07 am »
Let this be as well my presentation: My name is Jose and I'm from Spain. I'm planning my new house and I have decided it will be an automated house. I know there are commercial products but I dont want to buy anything I cant fix by myself, I hate depending on a particular brand. That's why I'm staying away from commercial software.
I have superficial skills and knowldge on electronics and I'm skilled enought to be safe with a tool in my hand. I did programming many years ago but I doubt the skills are still present.
I have gone through several posts but I get lost with ease. I need some kind of "home automation for dummies" guide that allows me to learn to the point where I can begin to think on a whole house installation so I can plan ahead for when the time comes.
Please throw me any readings, websites, books, etc.. You feel can help me in my first steps.
Thank you!
