    By adding the System Controller to your Communicating Thermostat, you'll receive a convenient, easy-to-use central control point for your home's heating and cooling needs. Mount the System Controller where it can be easily connected to your distribution panel and connect it to your network or computer (panel and computer sold separately). The System Controller's intuitive interface allows you to establish individual thermostat schedules and set basic system-wide settings.

    You'll be able to access your system through any standard computer and web browser. From the interface, add and configure thermostats or determine their settings and weekly as well as daily schedules. Create schedules for individual thermostats or groups of thermostats, whether in areas of your home or in different offices of your business. Security measures are in place to prevent unauthorized access.

    The System Controller can accommodate up to 16 thermostats and can be configured to send emails for alert conditions, such as if a thermostat isn't responding when the temperature of its environment is too high or too low.

    At any time, you can view the current inside temperature of any thermostat-controlled area, as well as the system's activity over the hour, day, week or month; you can even view the history of the thermostat for several months.

    Java is much bigger issue with it then it is stated by previous reviewers. the config screen will not connect it may take random 30 attempts, but after that it would not recognize thermostats. it also makes thermostats become unstable as it transmit almost random commands to 8070 thermostats... very poor product. beware.

    Beware, this only works with a browser and java dated 2009. It also does not give visibility to staged heating and cooling. I called Aprilaire and they said it could not be fixed and smarthome says it is a special order, so I'm stuck with it.

    This is the best HVAC system controller I have ever used. The install was easy, setup was a breeze, and the user interface is intuitive and powerful. A very streamlined automation system that is accesible from anywhere in the world(additional networking setup required); or you can just access it on a local area network. It uses a Java applet via a web browser so both PCs and Macs can connect no problem. Aprilaire has developed an excellent HVAC system controller that is well worth the investment.
