Jazz in the kitchen, pop in the kids' room, and rock on the deck during a BBQ will bring your house to life. </p> <p align="left">These are the advantages of a whole house audio system. To build such a system you need to understand what is going on behind the scenes. </p> <p align="left">All multi-room audio systems require <strong>source devices</strong>. These devices are typically a CD Changer, FM Radio, XM Radio, Ipod, or other music device. </p> <p align="left"><img src="http://www.google.com/notebook/img?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.milehighautomation.com%2Fimages%2Fsuite6in.jpg&ct=1124134490f&tok=Ns_gmeTDx9EIyImBzz4adj7CVlQ%3D%3A1178192004588" align="right" height="139" width="245" />A simple audio system allows you to adjust the volume of one device in the room you are in. For example, a single-source audio system may have a CD Changer attached to it. From each room, you would be able to adjust volume, but not skip to the next track or disk.</p> <p align="left">More advanced systems will allow you to change sources. You could have the CD Changer playing in the kitchen and the <strong>XM radio</strong> playing in the bedroom. </p> <p align="left"><img src="http://www.google.com/notebook/img?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.milehighautomation.com%2Fimages%2Fepisodespeakers.jpg&ct=1124134490f&tok=Ns_gmeTDx9EIyImBzz4adj7CVlQ%3D%3A1178192004588" align="left" height="150" width="226" />Our systems allow you to actually control the source devices you are listening to. From each room you are able to skip to the next song, change channels, or perform other activities as if the source device was in the room with you. </p> <p align="left"><strong>When combined with an automation system your music will be taken to the next level.</strong> We can program the system to play a certain CD when you wake up in the morning, and another selection while you are making breakfast.</p> <p align="left"><img src="http://www.google.com/notebook/img?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.milehighautomation.com%2Fimages%2Fnuvokeypad.jpg&ct=1124134490f&tok=Ns_gmeTDx9EIyImBzz4adj7CVlQ%3D%3A1178192004588" align="right" height="124" width="125" /></p> <p align="left">When a family member arrives home, music of their choice can automatically come on in the kitchen, their bedroom, or other room.</p> <p align="left"><strong>Do you work at home?</strong> Have you found the right balance between enjoying your music and not letting it interfere with phone calls? With our system you can play the music as loud as you want, but when the phone rings the music will automatically mute.

Simply stated, quality home automation makes life easier. Controlling lights with single-button scene control and zone control add new dimensions to a lighting system—a dimension you can’t achieve with a solo dimmer on the wall. In fact, home lighting automation is one of the most powerful methods Interior Designers use to change moods in a room.</p> <p>Every room in the home benefits from home control and home automation. Here’s just a few examples of popular applications:</p> <ul><li><b>Kitchen and Dining Room:</b> Create scenes for the different tasks such as dining, cooking and cleaning.</li><li><b>Home Theater and Media Rooms:</b> Create a dramatic “dim the lights before the show” integrated with your home theater system.</li><li><b>Master Bedroom:</b> Control zones of lights from the bedside to turn ON and OFF lights outside, downstairs or throughout the entire home.</li><li><b>Landscape and Garden:</b> Schedule when the garden path lights turn ON and OFF, or combine all the outdoor lights to activate at once for security.</li><li><b>Staircase and Hallways:</b> Ensure safety by turning on lights at appropriate lighting levels throughout the day and night.</li><li><b>Living Room:</b> Add elegance and intimacy. Lighting is one of the most powerful methods Interior Designers use to change moods in a room.</li><li><b>Family Room and Great Rooms:</b> Select a lighting scene for one person to read a good book, or the entire family to celebrate a birthday party.</li></ul> <p>Home automation is about delivering practical control of your lighting, home and personal lifestyle. Leviton’s two lines of residential home automation products, Vizia™-RF and Decora® Home Controls (DHC) establish powerful levels of control and customization—which allow Leviton to be the leader in home automation products that installers, builders and homeowners trust.</p> <b>Vizia-RF: Simply Brilliant Inside and Out</b><br /><i>Superior performance in <b>whole-house</b> installations of up to 7500 sq.ft.</i><br />Vizia-RF is the culmination of combining the beautiful Vizia™ line of lighting devices with a reliable wireless communication technology. Vizia-RF boasts advanced lighting control and wireless home automation capabilities. Advanced features such as enhanced two-way, load sensing, energy saving dim-lock on our dimmers, adjustable fade rates, simplified installation techniques and more are all featured with a Vizia-RF system. <a href="http://www.leviton.com/OA_HTML/ibeCCtpSctDspRte.jsp?section=15144&minisite=10024">More on Vizia-RF</a> <p> <b>Decora Home Controls: The Preferred Brand of Power-line Based Home Control</b><br /><i>Ideal for <b>discrete applications;</b> including a “welcome home” automated event, affordable home theater integration, and decorative seasonal lighting.</i><br />Decora Home Controls (DHC) combines the best of intelligent design with ease of installation. DHC components operate by communicating on existing household power-line wires. To make them dependable, Leviton has developed the acclaimed Intellisense™ signal integrity technology. DHC switches, dimmers and scene controller are easy to use and as reliable as conventional devices ― and feature aesthetically pleasing Decora designer styling. <a href="http://www.leviton.com/OA_HTML/ibeCCtpSctDspRte.jsp?section=15117&minisite=10024">More on DHC</a> </p></td></tr> </tbody></table></td> </tr> </tbody></table> <br /> </td> <td><img src="http://www.google.com/notebook/img?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.leviton.com%2FOA_MEDIA%2Fjtfutrpx.gif&ct=1124111a631&tok=Ns_gmeTDx9EIyImBzz4adj7CVlQ%3D%3A1178192004588" height="3" width="4" /></td> <td> <br /></td> </tr> </tbody></table> <table width="100%"> <tbody><tr> <td><img src="http://www.google.com/notebook/img?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.leviton.com%2FOA_MEDIA%2Fjtfutrpx.gif&ct=1124111a631&tok=Ns_gmeTDx9EIyImBzz4adj7CVlQ%3D%3A1178192004588" height="6" width="10" /></td> </tr> </tbody></table> <table width="100%"> <tbody><tr> <td align="right"> <br /></td></tr></tbody></table></div></div></div></div><div id="gnid89582" title="Click to add a note or section" class="ob"><div id="gnid89582_0" style="font-size: 0pt; width: 100%; height: 8px;"> </div></div><div class="ba" id="gnid14144"><div class="tb" style="position: relative;"><a href="http://www.google.com/notebook/fullpage#" class="pa xa" id="gnid14144_3" title="Drag this note to move it"><span class="ia qa"></span><span class="ka wa"></span></a><div class="na ta"><span class="la ua"></span></div><div class="cc"><div id="gnid14144_5" class="ec">Cisco Learning Institute Home Technology Integration Program</div><div style="clear: left;"><a class="gc" href="http://hti.ciscolearning.org/index.html">hti.ciscolearning.org/index.html</a><div id="gnid14144_6" class="ld oc">Note created April 29, 2007</div></div><div id="gnid14144_0" class="zb" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"> </div></div></div></div><div id="gnid44182" title="Click to add a note or section" class="ob"><div id="gnid44182_0" style="font-size: 0pt; width: 100%; height: 8px;"> </div></div><div class="ba" id="gnid8564"><div class="tb" style="position: relative;"><a href="http://www.google.com/notebook/fullpage#" class="pa xa" id="gnid8564_3" title="Drag this note to move it"><span class="ia qa"></span><span class="ka wa"></span></a><div class="na ta"><span class="la ua"></span></div><div class="cc"><div id="gnid8564_5" class="ec">Welcome to Leviton ez-Learn Training Center</div><div style="clear: left;"><a class="gc" href="http://ezlearn.leviton.com/el_front/userhome.aspx?cid=2&ps=1&courseid=3&cname=LEVITON%20INTEGRATED%20NETWORKS">ezlearn.leviton.com/el_front/userhome.aspx?cid=2&p...</a><div id="gnid8564_6" class="ld oc">Note created April 29, 2007</div></div><div id="gnid8564_0" class="zb" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><b>COURSE DESCRIPTION</b><br /><br /><b>Residential Structured Wiring Installer Certification-Part I</b> <a href="http://ezlearn.leviton.com/el_front/course_landing.aspx?courseid=3">[Take_Course_Now]</a><br /><br />The Leviton Integrated Networks (LIN) Residential Structured Wiring Installer Certification Training Program, Part I, is designed to provide low-voltage contractors with the general knowledge and basic skills necessary to plan and install a Leviton structured wiring system.<br /><br />This course is the first of a three-part Installer Certification Training Program.

We are simply showing products which are available in stores now which help you on your way to a silent system. If you are not afraid to mess around inside your PC then you will find plenty do-it-yourself methods on reducing noise. We will add them to each section to complete this article. They can be found at end of each section in YELLOW text</span><br /><br />One of the most thriving segments of the hardware industry which has blossomed is without doubt silent computing. Almost any respectable manufacturer which deals with PC cooling has a product geared to those who can not stand noise.<br /><br />While Dell, HP, Siemens and others have the advantage of incorporating their in-house designed cooling system with their desktop solutions, those who decide to buy a 3rd party PC (or assembly it themselves) must deal with components which are build for maximum compatibility.
