HomeVision |
| Imagine controlling your entire home with a
hand-held remote while watching TV. View a complete system interface on your TV screen.
Or from a web browser anywhere in your home (or in
the world). Change the temperature of the AC system. Or even
reprogram the thermostat schedule. Have the name and phone number of
callers appear instantly on your TV. Arm your security system while viewing the status of each zone. Or close the
garage door you left open. Imagine changing your lighting schedule without getting up from
your chair. HomeVision®, HomeVision-Pro, and HomeVision-PC make all of this possible at an affordable price. They come complete, including PC software. Our original product, the HomeVision controller, brings together seven key home automation features in a single unit:
In addition to these built-in capabilities, you can add on telephone control and other features! HomeVision is a stand-alone automation controller that is initially configured with a PC. It can then be disconnected if desired. HomeVision constantly watches for any events you've specified, then performs whatever actions you've told it to do. Any event can trigger any other event(s). The possibilities are limited only by your imagination. HomeVision-PC has similar hardware interfaces as HomeVision at a lower cost, but requires the PC to be running with additional software. Finally, HomeVision-Pro integrates all of HomeVision's functions and adds even more, making it our most powerful and popular controller.

| We currently have an excess
supply of HomeVision units in stock and would like to reduce it. We’re
offering two special deals through May:
|
- We will sell a complete HomeVision package for just $295, approximately half of the typical street price.
- We will sell a spare HomeVision board to current owners for just $140, 30% less than the usual $200 price for a spare board.
If you’re interested in either of these offers, contact us at csi@csi3.com. Although we normally don't sell directly to users, we're making an exception for these offers.
If you’re a current HomeVision owner without a spare board, we suggest you consider either getting a spare board or some spare parts (see our recommended parts list here: http://www.csi3.com/Lightning.htm). Here in the southern United States, thunderstorm season is approaching. Every year, lightning strikes cause a lot of damage, and HomeVision isn’t immune. With all the wiring that most users have connected to HomeVision, it’s hard to stop a nearby lighting strike from getting into HomeVision and damaging it. If you have spare parts or a board on hand, you can quickly get HomeVision (and your home) running again. If you depend on HomeVision for any import functions that you wouldn’t want to do without, be prepared!
