Title: Can ActiveHome Pro react to pc events?
Post by: daemonfoe on July 30, 2011, 05:08:24 AM

For example, my tv is hooked up to a laptop and when my laptop sleeps i want the tv to shut off like a monitor. So I'm wondering if there are specific events that can be used to trigger the tv to shut off.

If you can get the Pc to run a command before it goes to sleep, you can use the SDK to send a command to turn off an appliance module. Plug the Tv into the appliance module.
