X10 Home Automation

X10 is a remote control protocol embodied within low-cost mains-powered modules that allow you to control or dim lights, or to turn appliances on and off remotely from either a hand-held remote control or a PC. Here, much of the house lighting and garden watering is X10 controlled and managed by a house server PC and over time I will be extending information on this page to illustrate how its done. For now, if you want more information on X10 click here to go to a useful retailer site where you can obtain modules and information.
