Designing a Home Automation System Part 1 of 5: Wiring September, 2011

What is Home Automation? § An automated home brings together security, fire, lighting, temperature control, audio, home theater, surveillance, access control, pool, spa, drapery control, sprinklers, and anything else that you want so that these systems can talk to each other and work together § An automated home can include some or all of these components § HAI systems focus on lighting, temperature, security, audio, and video § In an automated home these devices work together to make the home more comfortable, more convenient, and safer

What does HAI do?

Do I need to pull wires to have Home Automation? § The answer to this question is increasingly “No” for most categories of home automation technology. § Security, Surveillance, Energy Management, Lighting Control, and Control Interfaces have more wireless options available every year. § If you are building a new home, remodeling, or have access to run wires most professional installers will recommend that you do so for maximum reliability.

Structured Wiring § Structured wiring enclosures provides security, temperature, lighting, audio, video, voice, and data from one central location § Allows for centralized infrastructure of all low voltage wiring in the home § Use any Cat 5 wire in the house to add automation features like touchscreens to any room § Reliable, flexible, expandable and upgradeable

What kind of wire do I need? § The most common types of wire used in home automation are: § Cat 5, Cat 5 e, Cat 6 for networking and serial connections § 22/2, 22/4 for security and low voltage control § 16/2, 14/2 for speakers and low voltage control § RG 59 for traditional CCTV cameras § Some other wire types for specialty applications

What devices use Cat 5, Cat 5 e, or Cat 6? § Devices that use IP networking § Omni/Lumina Controllers § Omni. Touch 5. 7 e § IP Camera Server § IP Door Station § HTX § Hi-Fi 2 § Music Gateway

Omni/Lumina § IP devices are all connected to a router or switch just like computers on a network. § This connection allows IP enabled devices like touchscreens and i. Phones to control your home automation system

Hi-Fi 2 § Run a Cat-5 from the top right hand input on the Hi. Fi 2 Main Board Assembly your router or switch § Once connected you can view metadata from the Music Gateway or HAI Dock as well as control what song you are listening to from the VSC
