Title: iPhone App for X10 is upscale
Post by: avioninnovative on December 30, 2017, 05:11:20 AM

AVAILABLE NOW IN STOCK

See example screens on avion innovative. website

An advanced multi-zone lighting and control system App for Legacy X10 home automation systems. We designed it for you, the experienced X10 user who wants an elegant upgrade using today’s technology. A new generation of X10 controllers have gone upscale and available this month.
A picture is worth more than words. Avion Innovative’s PhotoTouch™ menu design is full featured and the App’s touch screen user interface could not be simpler. To make a selection just touch the photo of a room, choose a lighting scene, event or individual device. Going Away? Just press the airplane photo and lights and devices will adjust the way you like and turn on and off at the exact times. Time for breakfast, lunch or dinner? One press of the icon photo will set up the lighting brightness and turn off devices not needed. The Avion app will look and feel like an expensive custom home controller. Check it out!

No need to post this multiple times, as that can be misinterpreted as spam. I moved an earlier post to a more suitable location, but it remains intact.
I have a question: what does this app use to interface with X10? CM15? I tried looking on your website, but it's a little vague to me.
Perhaps you could shed a little light on the project and help us all unterstand.

Hi

Sorry about multiple posts, there are multiple topics that apply There is a bluetooth smart controller that receives commands from an iPhone and transmits X10 on the power line. BTW, this product was built from the "ground up" and we started the project in late 2015.
Kindly review the information on Avioninnovative website.  Thanks.

The App interfaces with a new BT unit which is basically a redesigned  MC10A
The new unit can be seen near the bottom of this page: http://www.avioninnovative.com/x10-smart-home.html

looks an awful lot like the IPCE (http://pj88global.com/product.php?catid=2&no=2) unit that Authinx was approached about to carry back in 2014
I guess Authinx isn't the only one experiancing a long product creation timeline. ::) :'

The new bit might be the iOS app.

The hardware is 3+ years old (maybe with a different logo). I believe I suggested they contact Authinx when I was in contact with pj88global back then.

I'll admit the app does look slick but limiting it to just iOS is limiting their possible sales greatly. Even back in 2014 it had only an iOS app. :(
