Automation Products

Unlike most electric items, many PLC-
based products haven't changed much
over the years.  

Our Marketing and Customer Service teams surveyed our cus-
tomers, like you, and our engineers have invented new and bet-
ter wall switches and plug-in modules.  We include more fea-
tures, higher load handling, and better signal sensitivity for a
superior user experience.  While in some cases, they cost
more; we hope

you'll agree that not having to replace a dead module every

couple years is worth the added expense and reduced aggrava-
tion.  Please visit a retailer or distributor for the complete line
of automation products from Smarthome Design.

Other Smarthome Products

Your controller is compatible with many
of our other home automation products.
If you need a traditional-looking wall
switch, check out the new 

ToggleLinc

series of wall switches or the new

SwitchLinc RX

, which is ideal for retro-

fit applications where there isn't a neu-
tral wire at the switch's wall box.  The 

KeypadLinc Wall Mounted Transmitter

allows

you to control multiple devices from one location at the press of a single button.
And for plug-in devices, the 

ApplianceLinc

and 

LampLinc

modules will automate

just about anything that plugs in.  Please visit the Smarthome web site or contact
your distributor for more information.
