I've been reading for the past few weeks on all the features of
various alarms/home automation systems. I seem to be leaning towards
the OmniPro II as it sounds as if it is a great system.
Yet, from what I understand, and I am still learning, there are many
features which it does not handle internally and I then would need to
purchase third party products - most likely HAL2000 or HomeSear.
Would it be best for me to purchase a less expensive(hard wired) alarm
system that can interface with a third party product and put my money
into home automation via software and PC's?
Here is an example, and maybe it's just my lack of understanding. If I
purchase the OmniPro II with voice board and mount speakers throughout
my house I can Listen and Talk from a remote location. Sounds great!.
Yet, what if I install HAL2000 ... do I need to install a second set
of speakers/mic's for this product? I want one set of hardware that
is all linked together.
Any thoughts?
