How do/did I do this? Connect the dryer to Indigo/X10
Posted: Sun Feb 25, 2007 12:16 pm
Whenever our dryer is working, we start the ventilation system.
I've allready made the ventilation work with X10, but now I would like to add the dryer to the X10 world as well.
Therefore I need a gizmo that will send a X10 signal when the dryer is turned on and sends another signal when the dryer stops working.
(Which is not the same as "when the dryer is turned off!)
What do I need to get this done?
I have a W800RF32 module, so something with X10 RF signals can be suggested.
Near the dryer is an ethernet connection, so network solutions are possible as well.
And finally: I'm living in the 220 volt world which will probably limit the possibilities, as there is so much more X10 stuff in the 110 volt world.
Any help to expand my X10 world to the next stage is greatly appreciated.
