[Owfs-developers] looking for programming help on my next generation control system

Hi, Sorry this is a bit off topic and I hope people don't mind. I have created a home control system that I affectionately call the "No Sane Person" home heating and control system. I have very sophisticated control capabilities but am running it in a really simple mode right now. I don't want

Colin, I've looked at Xbee as well, and indeed the feature set is rich, with meshing being of interest. Maybe I'll revisit it in the future using some of the lessons learned from my SRF, XRF, RFu work. Cheers Stuart On 26 Dec 2013, at 20:02, Colin Reese wrote: > Thanks Stuart! Great, useful
