A device I would like to see available is one that is similar to the current serial interface, the CM-11A.
It would be a UPB device which has memory and is a stand alone device. One that does not need batteries, is AC powered, and has an EEPROM chip.
Of course the price would have to be affordable, and most of the UPB devices are overpriced.

I agree, it would be nice to have something like that for those small installs where even Omni Lite is way too large.

We will suggest this to the developers, but you can pretty-much do the same already with two simple set-ups.

Use a SAUCS Controller/Scheduler/Timer (doubles as a SAUMCDB9W Computer Interface Module!). You can't create the schedules from within your computer, you'd have to do it on the LCD of that device. But, performs the same functions overall.

OR, use your existing CM-11A Programmable Interface with the Foard X10 / UPB Compact Bridge.

Either method should get the job done. Are there any functions/features that I'm missing with these setups?
