Did the mailman come today or not? How many times did the kids run in and out today? How long does the air conditioner usually run? So many questions -- all of which can be answered with a monitoring system as part of an automated home!
In Home Automation Basics, Thomas E. Leonik, P.E. shows you how to use Visual Basic "RM" 6 in a home-monitoring system. Some day soon, all the functions of your home will be automated by a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), the backbone of all industrial controls in the world. Trailblazing toward that new era, Leonik demonstrates just how easy it is to establish ground-level communications with a PLC through Visual Basic "RM".
Visual Basic "RM" 6 is a flexible programming language that operates through Microsoft "RM" Windows. With the help of a companion. CD-ROM, Home Automation Basics guides you through the programming and installation portions of this project, giving you the ability to monitor a variety of functions in your home or office, including:
-- Front doorbell
-- Door open/closed status
-- Water-pump usage
-- HVAC usage
-- Mailbox status
-- Temperature
-- Water pressure
