Reminds me of a post I read ona home automation forum, discussing how to detect if a room was empty, so you could power down non essentials. This guy had a system where you had to log onto each room via a keypad. Trouble was, he only had 4 bits available on the control panel so his kids had to limit the number of friends they had over at any one time  :laugh2:
BobA:
4 bits give you a 16 count so he must not have used the binary to get that number.   Must have used 1 bit per person. Dumb programming IMHO.

HanoiBoi:
Pretty neat stuff.  Do you have it set up so that the person ringing can hear it too?

I will consider this project just as soon as I obtain an IO Linc, an automation controller a web server and a whole house audio system.   ;)
