vAutomation™ with CQC by VidaBox


vAutomation Powering the Home
vAutomation w. CQC works in this living room with vPad & TOUCHClient (blue) to control lighting (orange), HVAC (green), and blinds (light blue)

VidaBox’s vAutomation™ software provides a fully customizable front end for CQC that is optimized for use with touch screens. vAutomation provides a set of pre-defined template pages that can be easily customized by editing an XML definition file. These template pages can be completely modified to add/remove buttons, change button & page titles, change button press actions, backgrounds, and more! The interface is truly customizable to the n-th degree.

vAutomation software is ideal for dealers looking to source their entire job from a single manufacturer to maximize time savings by eliminating compatibility problems, while providing their clients with simple, intuitive control of their home’s AV components, lighting, climate, security, etc.

Best of all, vAutomation is natively compatible with VidaBox vPads, TOUCH panels, and most devices with network-accesscapabilities.  When ordered with VidaBox media centers, you can provide an all-inclusive package to cover everything from movies to music, from pictures to videos, and from multiroom audio to home automation – controlled on a single, intuitive interface – available on multiple devices.
