Do you remember our tiny keyboard with just 2 keys called ANAVI Macro Pad 2? Recently AE Chadwick used ANAVI Macro Pad 2 in his amazing home automation control center for his 1939 Minimalist Cottage.

AE Chadwick ran new wiring straight up into the ceiling and through one wall to connect to his home media server. Stream Deck is the primary interface and ANAVI Macro Pad 2 fits below it. Our open source hardware 2-key keyboard has a simple but important task in this complex setup to perform the feature ” “tap any key to wake the computer.”

AE Chadwick also designed a panel cut with CNC and 3D printed parts to hold the electronic gadgets. He was kind enough to share his experience in a Crowd Supply Field Report.
AE Chadwick, thank you for using ANAVI Macro Pad 2 and for sharing details about your project with us! It looks amazing!
