This is the web site and the Blog are devoted to my Home Automation projects. This covers technologies such as: Ubuntu Linux, Elastix PBX, 1-wire and my own bits of software. I have recently moved to a new location on the island of Westray in Orkney (off the end of Scotland by John O’Groats). If you have read any of my other Blogs (Braehead Manse, for example) you may or may not be aware that I have a ground source heat pump that heats the main property here in Westray. I have had this heat pump installed for just over a year now, along with several other people on the island. These heat pumps are very clever, probably too clever. There are a massive array of settings that can be altered within the control panel of the heat pump, allowing the adjustment of what looks like almost anything. This is all well and good, however the control panel itself, documentation and manufacturer web site give very little detail as to what these settings alter operational wise. And even more important, the advantages and disadvantages of changing anyone of these settings. After originally posting my problem to running a Heat Pump in both heating and hot water modes a few weeks ago, my little grey cells have been churning away at a possible solution.  Zoom 4506 While away from home for a while, I struggled to get some form of decent Internet connection, until I stumbled upon this little baby. The Zoom 3G Travel Router (Model: 4506). This little box allows you to plug in your little 3G Dongle you normally plug into your laptop or netbook. This unit then makes the 3G connection and makes available that Internet connection via standard WiFi. And what makes it really cool, is that it battery powered via its own internal rechargeable battery. Over that last year or so, I have installed a handful of Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHP) on the little Scottish Island where I now live. After experiencing several issues with the set-up. One of which I have not been able to resolve to date.
