iPhone app for CBus - BETA testers needed

Can't wait for this app to be available

Hi Brad,

I've been watching this thread with interest hoping for some news on the availability of your app... I have both an iPhone & an iPod touch so an application to control my C-Bus lights and equipment is something I have been searching for for the past year.

Would it be possible to give us a quick update on your progress and please add me to your beta testers list.

Thanks

Austin

 

Sounds like a very neat and useful app. Would love to give this a shot too & provide any assistance/feedback we can.

Thanks

Brad,

I just received the iphone development kit (newbie), but am a Software Engineer and would like to help out with development of this applicaiton.

Any interest?

Hi Brad,

I would love to test the beta version. Got some iphones, ipods touch and plenty of CBus2 homes integrated by our company in Argentina.

Thanks in advance.

 

Hey this might be a stupid question but is there an beta app like this one for a windows based phone. I've got an HTC HD or (Blackstone,8282). Its like an Iphone (European) version.

 

Has anyone actually heard anything more on this one since the initial posts?

All seems to have gone quiet - anyone heard from Brad/been able to give this a try?

 

I was kinda hoping for some news on this but it all seems to have gone quiet ... so if people were prepared to pay money for this then my C-Bus gateway home project already has the capability. Basically this is a standalone box (circa $250 US) that sits between C-Bus and other devices or networks including Ethernet. It includes an inbuilt device server for Command Fusions' iViewer application.

So if you then purchase iViewer clients for your iPhones/Touches they can connect to my gateway and onwards to C-Bus allowing the buttons to offer on/off realtime control and you can use sliders too for brightness. I have been using this for sometime here - just never promoted it. iViewer includes a totally customisable GUI Designer and is free for two screens, but chargeable above that.

OTOH - If the native iPhone / C-Bus application described above does materialise, connecting via C-Gate or a PCI/CNI then it could be a lower cost solution for everyone.

The C-Bus gateway is not currently C-Bus Enabled/approved ... but I'm working on it

{edit} I should also add that I am not a company and I have provided these gateways 'at cost' based on some enquiries about my project, so no commercial angle here. Should the product become officially C-Bus Enabled / approved then that might become a whole different scenario.

 

Yep.

I'd be prepared to pay money for this and give it a go?

What do I do next???

 

I'll pop up a new thread in this forum with some further details - rather than hijack this one - give me a couple of days..

{edit} I haven't put the thread up as the other software application mentioned would seem to promise an easier and lower cost solution.

 

Iphone interface on CNI

Hi Everyone,

Sorry, not an attempt to hijack this thread but I can see there is a lot of interest for the topic so thought you might like to know we have developed an iphone app (already submitted to apple) that will allow connection using just a CNI.

Full two way etc, add as many rooms and buttons as you like, slider control.

Cgate version could be easily available within weeks if there is sufficient interest, our current products support this already so it would not be a big deal.

Hi Brad

It looks like a great product, i am trying to start my own business doing this sort of stuff so if it all goes well i could sell it for you to my clients, any idea of prices?

I assume you all already know that Clipsal released an app for the iPhone/iTouch for free that works with C-Bus using Wiser.
