| SPRING GROVE, IL -- (BUSINESS WIRE) Intermatic Inc., the leading producer of home security and home control products. will offer a new “HomeSettings” line of lighting/appliance automation products designed for non-techie households beginning next Spring. "Most people think using a home control system is too difficult or too expensive," says Art Noparstak, a home automation expert with Intermatic Inc. "We are introducing a reliable home control system made with Zensys Z-Wave technology that not only enhances security and requires no wiring, but offers several benefits for consumers." Home Lighting
This is probably the most popular control category. Starter kits are inexpensive, convenient and easy-to-install. Dim fixtures you could never dim before, control them from anywhere in the house and give your home a "lived in" look while you are away. The Intermatic Home Settings Wall Receptacle(a) (Model HA01), the Plug-in Lamp Module (Model HA03), with an on/off/dim switch, and the In-Wall Dimmer Switch (Model HA06), will immediately give your home a superior level of lighting automation. Outdoor Security and Lighting
Home intruders like nothing better than darkened doorways and windows. But with the weather resistant Intermatic Outdoor Module (Model HA04) and the Outdoor Screw-In Lamp Receptacle(a) (Model HA05), you can control the lighting surrounding your home. What if you arrive home late at night? The outside lights will automatically sense your presence and turn on as you approach. This also makes turning on and off holiday lighting easier. Master Remote Control
The Master Remote Control (Model HA07) or Handy Remote Control (Model HA09) gives you the convenience of controlling lights and appliances from wherever you happen to be -- your couch, car or even in your bed. Imagine hearing an unexpected noise outside -- use the Master Remote Control "all on" feature to quickly turn on your lights and stereo. The Master Remote Control also features a variety of timing options, 12 "scenes," battery backup, 6 on/off features, visual feedback and an "Astro" feature that allows you to turn your lights on at sunset and off at sunrise without ever having to reset the timer. The Handy Remote Control includes 6 "scenes" and visual feedback. Each system can hold up to 192 devices on each remote control. "Today a consumer can go into their local home center and with a budget less than $100 begin to outfit their home with a home control system," says Noparstak. "The Intermatic HomeSettings system allows you to begin with a few items and gradually expand over time." Intermatic is the leading producer of home security and home control products.
