Hi,
Has anyone has any experience w/ the Butler-in-a-box from AVSI (ex MasterVoice). It seems to be a mid-90's HA system w/ strong voice-activated capabilities. Is it still a viable HA controller?
Thx

Yes it's been a long time. I still have 5 of them. I was a distributor i the Rochester, NY area.

They're gone as far as I know. Lots of legal trouble with
developments that agreed to install them and then they failed to
perform. Gus, the founder (and a Magician by earlier trade) has not
been heard from in a while - some said he skipped the country even!
All unsubstantiated, but aren't all rumors?
The voice recognition though was considered by many to be no more than
"sound recognition" which is how a news story about the dog barking
causing the system to make long distance phone calls came about...
Gave a bad name to other voice recognition systems for sure!
I'd gloss over that system quickly...

I was a dealer and still have a couple still in the box. I have been using one for 20+ years to control a myriad of lights with other X-10 devices. I agree the voice control was problematic. It did control a fighter jet in an experiment. If it is

Good afternoon
A friend of mine gave me a Mastervoice Butler in a Box (Gen 1) still inside the Styrofoam packaging. It seems that all of the other accelamp Modulessories are also included; (1)Powerhouse Appliance Module,(1)Powerhouse Lamp module, (1) Training
Can anyone help me clear the error message or provide me with any additional information that can bring 'Max Headrome' back to life?
Thanks

I bought a used butler in a box without the four digit pin code. Is there a way to find out what the pin code is. You indicated you had a couple still in the box how much do you want for one.
