My ultimate goal is not to use Homeseer for the Pool. My iPads will be the user interface to the house andwhere ever possible I will do it directly. My iPads will control the pool directly over TCP/IP. I will maintain the Homeseer plugin though.
The reason I used homeseer in the pool control loop originally was a long time ago (7-8 years). The iPad system I developed acts as the touch screens for Homeseer but where I can directly connect to a device from the iPad with no media converters (e.g. tCP to serial) I take HS out of the loop. Right now an ISY994 controls all my lighting and some appliances. I use the ISY plugin to keep HS informed.
Today Homeseer handles Security, HVAC, CallerID, and voice announcements.
The iPads control all lighting and lighting scenes through the ISY994i and will be directly controlling the pool system in about a week.
