Essential Info
Check your stocks. Find out what's on TV tonight. Hear your email messages. Turn on your lights. All of this can be done just by speaking your commands. With HALDeluxe software, you'll be able to use your computer's microphone system to dictate how you want the lighting and appliances in your home to react. You can also ask HAL to read you your E-mail, give you a stock quote or a sports score or a TV listing: HAL automatically harvests Internet information for use when you want it. You can even perform all of these tasks over the phone as well as manage your telephone system if you have a HAL-compatible modem (sold separately) installed. HAL software sends commands to your house by way of a computer-based controller (required and sold separately). Smarthome does not accept returns on any opened software.

More Info

Voice-controlled home automation lets you speak to all of the technology in your home. From traditional technologies, like lights and thermostats, to new technologies, such as personal video recorders and MP3 players, you'll have the ability to control all of the devices in your home just by picking up the phone and pressing a single button.
HAL software taps the power of your existing PC to control your home. Once the HAL software is installed on your PC, it can send commands all over your house using the existing highway of electrical wires inside your home's walls. It's a two-way conversation, with HAL confirming that it has, indeed, performed the requested action.
HALDeluxe includes almost every available feature of the HAL home control system for a wide range of flexibility. With HALDeluxe, you will be able to talk to your PC to control an unlimited number of lights and devices in your home. You can turn lights on and off, schedule them according to the sunrise and sunset, dim them for scene lighting, and schedule them to go on and off automatically whenever and as often as you want. Lamps and appliances to be controlled will require lamp and appliance modules, sold separately.
To take full advantage of this software, you'll need a HAL-compatible modem in order to control the software over the phone, whether you're in the house or on the other side of the world. To do so, purchase this kit, which includes the HALDeluxe software, the HAL Voice Portal Modem, a PC powerline adapter and cable, and even a lamp module to begin your home automation adventure.
If you're just getting started on home automation and need only basic control, try the HAL Basic Software (sold separately). Or step up to the top-of-the-line HAL2000 Software, which has all of the features of the HALDeluxe software, along with expanded interfacing with heating systems, home theater control, and other inputs and outputs not registered by the more basic HAL software.
Add the HALvoices (sold separately) plug-in to hear more human-sounding voices. Also available and sold separately is the HALdmc Digital Music Center, designed to give you the same easy voice control of your entire music collection that HAL extends to all of the devices in your home.
Add HAL Digital Video Center software to your system, and you'll be able to add every surveillance camera in your home to your HAL-controlled home automation network, controlling cameras remotely using your voice.
