About This Catalog

Published for Home Controls' 25th anniversary, this catalog covers the full range of connected smart home categories the company carried in 2014: Lighting & Automation, Security & Surveillance, Home Wiring & Networking, Audio & Video Distribution, and Telephones & Intercoms.

Home Automation

• Automation controllers — intelligent hub systems (HAI/Leviton Omni, Lumina, Elk M1, Zipato, HomeSeer) that coordinate lighting, climate, entertainment, irrigation, and security from one brain, controllable via keypads, touchscreens, smartphone, or internet.
• Sensors — perimeter, motion, door/window, glass-break, light, flood, and driveway sensors that feed automation and security logic.
• Pool & spa / irrigation control — remote and scheduled control of pool/spa equipment and irrigation systems.

All Omni systems can operate stand-alone (not dependent on a computer) using embedded controller technology with no fans or moving parts.
