This is the home of Felix, a piece of software to monitor and control your home from anywhere in the world. Felix is very flexible and very reliable, but it is currently over-complex due initial development concepts and is currently undergoing redevelopment.
What can Felix currently do?
Felix can be used to monitor and control anything from lighting to heating to watering to swimming pool or aquarium chemistry connected via X-10 or 1-Wire. If you can put the hardware together, Felix can manage it.
Who is Felix For?
Felix is not for everyone. It’s complicated, with more emphasis on functionality than pretty graphics. If you just want to monitor weather, Felix can do that but it’s not the best solution. If you want to do more advanced things like controlling your central heating from your mobile phone, or automating your fish tank chemistry, Felix will take some beating. Once you get used to it, using Felix is very easy as all configuration is done through the web interface.
Licensing
Felix v1 is completely free for personal use. There’s no catch. The only limitation is that we don’t provide any support.
Felix is easy to install and work with, very flexible and capable, and runs on any computer running Windows XP or later.
You’ll find more information about automation with Felix throughout this site, and even more in the PDF documents available in the downloads section.
