Installation steps

There are four basic stages in getting Whzan Home Automation working:

1) Purchase and install your X10 hardware as per the manufacturer's instructions.  Include a device that you want to control, and an X10 PC controller interface. (E.g. CM11).

2) Download and install Whzan's X10 Gateway Service and Manager from the Shop (just follow the instructions).


3) Configure the Gateway Manager so that it knows about your controller and devices.

4) Open the Editor in My Whzan where you will find datapoints created that link to the devices you have defined in 3) above.  Use these with the Mimic Editor  and optionally use templates to create your graphical displays (Mimics) that you can use to control your devices.

Always follow the manufacturer's installation instructions for all your devices and ensure that those devices are installed, housed, maintained and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's instructions and the legislation in your home country.

Remember that home automation equipment may operate at any time due to environmental conditions, power supply fluctuations or other external factors outside of your control.
