In the past, deploying a new operating system could be extremely complex and time consuming. In this session, we describe how the platform image engineering in the Windows Vista operating system makes it easier to deploy than previous versions of Windows. Join this webcast to learn how Windows Vista uses new imaging technologies and tools, like Windows Imaging Format (WIM), that enable you to engineer and customize the operating system image, which helps make deployment easier. We also illustrate how Windows Vista supports the majority of applications that run on the Windows XP operating system and earlier versions of Windows.

Enhanced Group Policy functionality in the Windows Vista operating system expands the capabilities of earlier versions of Windows. For example, the number of Group Policy settings has increased dramatically from approximately 1,700 in Microsoft Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 (SP1) to approximately 3,000 in Windows Vista and Windows Server code-named "Longhorn." Join us for this presentation to get the background you need to begin taking advantage of these new Group Policy enhancements. We examine the updated Group Policy features and highlight the biggest changes in Group Policy. We also introduce the Quality of Service (QoS) policies in Windows Vista that help you manage network traffic, offer better user experiences, and control bandwidth costs.

Join this webcast to learn how to streamline your large-scale Windows Vista deployment using the best practices that Microsoft IT learned through deploying a beta version of Windows Vista. We also explain how to use the new Windows Imaging Format (WIM)-a file-based disk imaging format-to install Windows Vista. Original Broadcast Date: Thursday, January 18, 2007

I thought i would post a brief entry to let everyone know about a new home automation controller we currently have in development here at Domia!

Working with the Domia Lite and ByeBye Standby range of hardware, the Domia Lite Controller (DLC) uses RF (radio frequency) to communicate and control your appliances, dimmers etc. With a built in web server and the ability to communicate via both both UDP and TCP you simply plug the unit into your existing network and away you go!

The DLC broadcasts a uPnP message so assuming you have the option enabled, windows will show the device in my network places. You can then either control the DLC (and your devices) directly through the built in web server or via Harmony Home Automation Server (with the Domia Lite Controller Plugin).

Anyhoo, Enough of my waffle, the best way to see what i am on about is to view the short video i have made showing the DLC in action.

 

The Domia Lite Controller Video!

(the sound volume is a little low on the video so you may need to turn your speakers up a bit!) 

 

Just for fun, below is a picture of a Domia Lite Tower! Don't Worry, there is a very good reason we plugged 9 Domia lite Appliance modules into each other, but i have to say i am a little stuck as to why i decided to balance them all on a smiley satsuma!

While testing the DLC we started running some performance tested to figure out how fast we could send a signal to switch on/off different house/unit codes (devices). The easiest way to do this was to plug a load of devices together, set each one to a unique address, plug a light into the top unit and see how long it took to turn on each unit all the way up to turning on the light! We were very pleased to discover that it was easily able to switch on 9 devices in under a second! Great performance!

 

 

Just as a little teaser on the software side, Harmony 2007 is nearly finished and about to enter beta in the next few weeks, stay tuned, as we will be opening up the beta program to the public! :)

Thats all for now! :) Tim

Looking thru the postings, the ChartFX.Lite product works with VS2005. But I 
am getting the following error, when I try to use it in VS2005:

Generation of designer file failed: Type 
'SoftwareFX.ChartFX.Lite.Internet.Chart' does not have a public property 
named 'chart'.

I am running VS2005SP1.
It works fine in my VS2003 project.

Code snippets:
<%@ Register TagPrefix="cc1" Namespace="SoftwareFX.ChartFX.Lite.Internet" 
Assembly="ChartFX.Lite.Internet" %>

   <cc1:chart class="chartfx"
              id="ManagedVehicles"
              runat="server"
              border="true"
              Height="400px"
              LegendBox="True"
              Gallery="Bar"
              Chart3D="False"
              BackColor="White"
              width="500px"
              position="relative"
              XAxis
              PointLabels="True">
    <cc1:chart>

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Karel Bekker
