Overview
Tell HAL what to do, in your own voice, from any phone in the world, and it can
turn on lights, appliances, or any other electrical devices, as easily as if you
were switching them on yourself. You can even control devices while you're home
by speaking into a PC microphone, or from any phone inside the house. It does all
this using wiring that's already in your home, so no complicated installation is
required. In fact, setting it up is easier than ever with HALdeluxe, one of the
easiest-to-use and most affordable voice automation packages you can find! Smarthome
does not accept returns on any opened softwarePerformance
Features
But the incredible HALdeluxe features don't end there. The system can also read
your e-mail to you from anywhere! If you're someone who wants to keep up to date,
you can even get verbal updates on news, stock prices, weather reports, sports scores,
TV listings and traffic! You can even install HALvoices (sold separately) for a
selection of realistic, human-like voices.
HALdeluxe also acts as a full-featured answering machine, so you won't have to continue
paying those monthly voicemail fees to the phone company. It supports 10 voice mailboxes,
and, if you subscribe to the phone company Caller ID service, it can also announce
the name and/or phone number of the person calling. With this service, you can leave
custom messages for specific individuals. You can also tell HAL to call anyone in
your HAL Directory, just by saying their name. HALdeluxe even logs all incoming
and outgoing calls, so you'll always know what calls were made or received.
