Hello all,
I am just getting started in HA and I need some advice on getting my ideas out of my head and on paper. I would appreciate any guidance on the best ways and equipment to approach the following:
1) First level - Set up bedroom so that a x-time (say 5:45 AM), music starts (source can be mp3, radio,etc.), room light comes on at a dimmed value. As time gets closer to 6:00 AM lights go to full brightness and music goes to a max set volume.
2) Next level - Includes first but adds - Motion detector so that if someone arises during night the lights in room come on to a low set level and light in bathroom does the same.
I have the computer but need specifics on HA items. I am excited about getting all this going and more excited that plug-ins and scripts can be developed to do many things. I am a DBA by trade and a VB developer by hobby.
Thanks in advance for any help
