[QUOTE="gbyleveldt, post: 8448, member: 122"] I used to do quite a bit of SCADA'esque work and developing a product that is flexible, yet user friendly is always a trade off. You cannot expect your system to be 'smart' when the average user cannot or couldn't care to even program a VCR. Again, Clipsal's lack of 'smartness' might not be a limitation of the product, but it might be designed in such a way to allow your average electrician to set up such a system. I think the use of Macros gives you all the power you might reasonably need. What Crestron might add is the ability to integrate to a larger variety of third party products. All this does is broadens the scope of things that can work together, it doesn't make it any smarter. [/QUOTE]
