From: John Woodward
Subject: CP290 Director 1.5 - Control of X10 CP290 Home Automation System

I give permission for CP290 Director to be included on the Info-Mac CD-ROM.

CP290 Director is Macintosh software that controls the original X10
home automation computer controlled interface, model number CP290. It
completely replaces the Macintosh software that comes with the CP290,
and has unique features not found in other Macintosh-based CP290
controllers such as MouseHouse and Xtension.

CP290 Director does not have to be running at all times to control
the CP290, since it takes advantage of the CP290'S ability to store
events for later execution. In addition to the standard CP290
features, CP290 Director supports the following additional features:
1) the ability to specify that an event is to occur at sunrise or
sunset (plus or minus a specified time interval); 2) the ability to
specify a specific date on which an event is to occur, and optionally
the interval in days thereafter that the event should be repeated;
and 3) the ability to specify that the event should occur only on
even days or on odd days.

System requirements:
* System 7 through 8.6; not tested with MacOS 9
* Macintosh with at least 4 MB of RAM

Release 1.5 adds the ability to print an event listing or save it in
a file. For more information, please read the documentation
enclosed, or visit the CP290 Director Web page:
