Customizable Software
HomeTroller is designed for easy installation and configuration by any homeowner. The unit
features an easy-to-use, menu-driven interface for setup and configuration.
For those who wish to venture a bit further, the system software is totally customizable! The
user interface is web-based and may be changed using cascading stylesheet (CSS) commands.
The included software API allows for the creation of custom software "plug-ins" using the .NET
development environment. These plug-ins are used to provide additional support for custom
hardware and software. The system also includes a powerful scripting interface that supports
popular scripting languages such as VBScript, VB.NET, JavaScript, Python and Perl. Scripts
provide a quick way to add custom functionality using complex if-then-else logic, or for sending
binary or ASCII text to a serial port. The user interface and custom interfaces are built or
modified using simple web (HTML) technologies.
Add-Ons
Software add-ons are referred to as "plug-ins". They enhance the operation of the HomeTroller
by adding functionality such as integration with a security panel, infrared controller, or media
player application like MS Windows® Media Player or Apple's iTunes® media player. To see the
latest list of plug-ins available, click on the Updater button and follow the prompts. Some plug-
ins are free, some are not.
