    Dear Radio Amateur,

    Please forgive the slight commercial nature of this announcement, but I
    have developed a new home automation application that can be remotely
    accessed via an APRS equipped amateur radio, which I thought this group
    would find interesting.

    For more details, please see my press release below.

    Best regards,

    APRS Remote Control

    Acentient Software has just released v1.02 of Adaptive Home Logic, a
    new multi-purpose home automation application for Windows XP, which
    introduces the unique concept of being able to remotely control your
    home automation system or electronics from an APRS equipped amateur
    radio, via the APRS amateur packet radio network, independently of
    anyone else's communication infrastructure.

    This makes it particular useful for monitoring / controlling systems or equipment where the other forms of communication are simple not
    available, possible or prohibitively expensive, such as an automation
    system at a remote / rural location, in a mobile home, yacht or RV,
    etc. The program can also be used to transmit telemetry to an APRS
    station on a regular schedule or automatically when an event is
    triggered.

    This new program, which can interface with many home automation
    peripherals, generic serial devices and parallel input / output boards, integrates many advanced features to offer wide ranging flexibility
    within an easy to use and understand application.

    Featuring Scheduling / Conditional Events, 2-way Speech, Remote Control
    & Reporting (Internet / Amateur Radio), Digital I/O, Serial Data
    (RS-232 / RS-485), X10, File Data, E-Mail Alerts, Sunrise / Sunset,
    Screen Overlay Scenes, Data Logging + More!

    The program can also be used to form the basis of a simple or
    sophisticated home automation system, as well as for other automation applications.

    For more details, please visit www.acentient-software.com

    Adaptive Home Logic is currently available at an introductory price of
    just $34.95
