Ultamation have won the "Most Creative GUI" in this year's coveted Crestron Integration Awards.  In the most hotly contested of the nine categories, Ultamation's entry beat off the competition on the grounds of technical excellence married with intuitive and "funky" design.

Ultamation are very pleased to announce that we are now Kaleidescape Signature dealers.  After a great deal of consideration, and looking at other offerings in the movie and music server space, we decided that Kaleidescape products set the benchmark that other manufacturers aspire to but, sadly, cannot match.  Kaleidescape's proprietary operating system (KEAOS) provides a platform designed specifically for purpose - without any of the isues that Windows or Linux based systems exhibit such as jerky performance or limited uptime between reboots.  This, combined with a mature and very well written integration library for Crestron control systems, makes Kaleidescape a perfect partner in delivering the highest-specificaton integrated audio-visual systems for your home or yacht.

With Ultamation delivering Crestron and Kaleidescape, you can't get any better.

Ultamation are pleased to announce the release of a new Heatmiser module supporting the V3 protocol.  The latest version of the Heatmiser products (also sold under other brands, such as Wavin) communicate using a more complex protocol which incorporates CRC error correction.  Communicating directly with the thermostats over RS485, the initial release of the module supports power control, run-mode (normal or frost protect) and set-point control, all with true feedback, including current room temp and heating demand status.  For more information, contact This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

For any organisation requiring tighter integration of their AV control systems with their corporate or educational IT infrastructure, Ultamation Limited has developed a simple syslog client.  This allows Crestron programmers to easily include BSD-compatible sylogd logging facilities in any Crestron Series-2 based program.  Applications aren't limited to corporate IT either; syslogd is a convenient and IT-industry standard logging facility with a wealth of user tools available for monitoring usage or analysing logs, providing a more robust alternative to the usual Crestron message log or writing to local NVRAM or Compact Flash.  For more information or pricing, please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
