Adding and Configuring Devices
About Devices
Devices are objects that hold information. Often these objects are tied to a real, physical device
in your home, such as a light switch, garage door, or television. The information the device
object holds is the status of that real device. A device can also hold information such as a
weather forecast or the winning lottery numbers that were downloaded from the Internet.
Various types of devices can be used with the HomeTroller, such as lights, appliances, security,
HVAC, and infrared.
