+--- Thread: Switch off Standby items (/thread-1603.html)
- bryanajones - 09-26-2009
Can anyone suggest a way to use comfort to switch on an off items that are in standby?
What I would like is to fit some wall sockets near the TV\'s. Any item such as the TV that goes into standby but would be better off when not in use. I would like to be able to remotely switch the sockets off. I.e. when I leave the house and arm the system, switch off all tv\'s etc.
(hope I explained that ok)
I am about to finish the decorating on the house so if any new cables are needed I need to get these down as soon as possible.
Thanks
Bryan

ZWave would be ideal for this. The Appliance module plugs into the wall sockets and can be switched by Comfort using the UCM/Zwave

I don\'t want anything bulky or that can be seen. Kind of takes the magic out of it all
I cant afford a total rewire of the house (because I cleaned myself out spending several grand on comfort
) but I\'m about to lay alarm cable and data cables so if there\'s anything I can do at this stage?
