Re: HomeVision control of Central Heating

["Mike Huggins" <mikeh@xxxxxxx>]

HI Clive

We are doing just that at home right now. I don't have the specs as my
sparks has "designed" something. It invloved 3 AD10's, 3 relays
and our
standard timer.

He says we should be able to use the timer, AND control using HomeVision.
Sounds good, but I'll believe it when I see it...

Mike
