I'm associated w/ a CO that DEKA used.

Did not know it but DEKA chose Vantage Controls, a company that DEKA uses to control the lighting( maybe more) at DEKA Research. http://www.vantagecontrols.com/marketing/comlist.html
It makes me feel good to know that DEKA could have used any company for their lighting needs, and i'm sure did extensive research.
I'm actually going out Tuesday to their headquarters for updated training, will find out if they did the factory or some other buildings.
Not sure if the above link works but it is under businesses that have chosen VANTAGE.

I kinda left that unclear on just where i'm going for training,..I'm going to Vantage Controls(i'm a dealer) for training,.. not to Segway for training.

Phil,

Are you bringing your Segway with you? :)

Will not be bringing the HT to Orem since I have only one and i'm bringing my programmer along,.. I'd hate to leave him walking behind. You must be involved in/with Vantage somehow since you're from Orem,... Eh ?

I'm sorry but I'm still lost. Who's DEKA & why are you going to Vantage Controls?

[Phil]

Heres a quote from the Segway site" Kamen founded DEKA Research & Development in 1982 to focus on creating breakthrough products that improve humankind. Kamen's patented fluid management system is the core of the Baxter HomeChoice™ PD peritoneal dialysis machine, a compact and portable device that replaced the otherwise stationary and cumbersome version—and freed patients from hospitals and seclusion. In the creation of the Crown Stent, DEKA engineers worked with Johnson & Johnson to generate added flexibility in the first intravascular stent proven to reduce blockage in arteries"

The reason that I'm going to Vantage is for training in programming Vantage Systems (home automation)
I just thought that it was neat for DEKA research (who is the industry leader for forward thinking) to align itself with another company that I have the priveledge to be associated with.

Phil,

Vantage has been around for many years and I have had the pleasure of meeting them at CES and a few other Home Automation events. Quality seeks quality, and I appreciate your post on the excellent quality that Segway chose.
