Simply Automated Expands UPB Product Line Providing
Greater Flexibility and Control with “No New Wires”

SAN DIEGO, CA – March 10, 2004 – www.Simply-Automated.com , Simply Automated, Incorporated announces the expansion of its UPB (Universal PowerLine Bus) product line, a line of home automation products that are affordable, self-installable and reconfigurable, enabling an automated environment in homes and offices with "no new wires".

The three new modules include:

  • Model UMI Input/Output Module -- designed for sensing and controlling low-voltage devices, such as, door strikes, drapery controls, central vacuum controls, electric fireplace actuators, garage door openers, sprinkler valves, etc.

  • Model UCT Tabletop Controller -- an 8-button device that can be customized to perform certain functions when buttons are pressed, such as dimming lamps, turning appliances on and off, unlocking doors, etc.
