Hi all I'm new to home automation, and hope to get some advice from people here. Here goes...
After doing some readup on home automation, I have decided to adopt X10 products as it should be cheaper for me (although it isn't that cheap in my country Singapore hehe).
From what I see, I need to have about 35 X10 receivers to control all the lightings and fans in my house. As I also intend to setup the "cheap" PA system using the telephone line, I will also need about 10 X10 appliance modules to control the speakers on/off. 10 motion sensors communicating using RF will be used to detect human presence. As for the main controller, I intend to use Homeseer for controlling all the stuffs (PC), and Ocelot for infrared transmission and sensor inputs. 4 X10 floodlight devices will also be used for security purposes.
I'm worry about the X10 reliability to control like 55 X10 modules. Any advise for me on my setup is greatly appreciated Please forgive me if I happen to miss out information available from the previous posts.
