Hi Gary,

A few years ago I ran a CAT5 from my front door to an input port on HV.

Hi,

I was thinking about interfacing a doorbell to my PC so that i can
play any sound. The price of a simple PCB type TX unit is about =A38.=20

You can by the freidland bell push, about =A38 and these with come case,
button, and fully assembled etc, and it has lots of code combinations!

So could be used for lots of diffent tasks where a simple closed
contact is required.

Anyone know how to interface it or tried something like it, the
website already has the timings, they seem a bit like X10?

Regards=20
