GSH new SW Tool to control X10 devices and more
« on: December 28, 2011, 04:11:54 PM »

Hey there

So I have developed an automation tool that manage Active Home X10 devices, combined with some really sexy features.
---
1. The tool allows you to control all X10 devices, along with UIRT devices, set macros and all the mandatory stuff, with a nice "design your house" wpf gui.

2. Actions - let you control which trigger device and action will cause which device to do something else (for example - motion sensor MS13 will result in sending you a mail, or voice command "Lights on" will cause livingroom lights to turn on).

3. Aggregated actions -meaning you can program amount of notifications that will cause trigger and not a single notifications (for example when no motion in room for 10 minutes turn off lights, or the opposite).

3. Voice controlled

4. IR devices control

5. Mail notifications

6. Server - Client to allow control over the tool from other PC's (Under Construction).

7. Power consumption statistic to minimize power usage (Under Construction).

obviously it is all free..

I strongly recommend to visit my website at www.gilboash.co.cc, it also has a do-it-yourself section with some explanations on the devices, and manual of how to activate the program.

So I would love to have some more overseas users- enjoy and contact me for any issues

I noticed that your program is set up to use the mirateck modules will your software work for US x10 products.  I am always looking for new ideas for HA.  yours sounds very interesting and I would be willing to give you input on your program if you need help in beta testing if it will work with the US hardware and SDK

It uses the X10 AHP SDK so it will work with North american modules.

Ok started playing around with GSH a little and it looks very interesting, It will be interesting to see how it is when it is complete it does offer x10 control and voice control as well but I find that the VR conflicts with the VR in win 7 similar to the BVC conflict.  except for this I think it will be a good addition to HA

Hey Ken

1. Yes it is supposed to work with all AH supported modules, north american as well.

2. regarding the Voice control it does conflict with the WIN7, (I personly use XP based PC to control my devices) but you can play with WIN7 voice control definitions to "reduce some noise" and have better control.

3. of course I would love to get feedbacks on my tool. please let me know regarding any little issue you encounter or improvement suggestion.
note that you can set actions, and mail distribution notifications, and, if you are interested in controling IR devices i will release that soon as well.

When I try to go to your website, my Malewarebytes blocks it and says that it blocked a potentially malicious website, and lists an ip address.
I tried shutting down malewarebytes, and NOD32 blocks your website as well....  B:( B:( B:(
VERY suspicious!!!!!
Guess I won't be trying your software!
What's going on?

Why not disable both Malewarebytes and  NOD32 and retry it.  I looked at it with Firefox, looks interesting.

I was just concerned because the OP is a newbie, and both Malwarebytes and NOD32 flagged the site.]
This raised alot of red flags to me and I prefer to NOT get my computer infected.
I do use firefox as well.

I downloaded the software and tested it.

It is very basic and still has a fair way to go before I would use it.

Thanks for the info.
I was able to visit your site with no problems, don't know why Malwarebytes and NOD32 blocked it....
I just used the link you posted in your last post, and it worked.... thanks!
I will give it a whirl!
