    <h3>Description</h3>
    <ul>
      Fhem is a GPL'd perl server for house automation. It is used to automate
      some common tasks in the household like switching lamps / shutters /
      heating / etc.  and to log events like temperature / humidity / power
      consumption.<br><br>

      The program runs as a server, you can control it via web or smartphone
      frontends, telnet or TCP/IP directly.<br><br>

      In order to use FHEM you'll need a 24/7 server (Fritz!Box, NAS, RPi, PC,
      MacMini, etc) with a perl interpreter and some attached hardware like the
      CUL, FHZ1300PC, etc. to access the actors and sensors. See the "Supported
      hardware" section below.</ul>

    <a name="Installation"></a>
    <h3>Installation</h3>

    <ul>
    <h4>Fritz!Box</h4>
    <ul>
      <li>On the FB7390 or FB7490 install <a
        href="http://fhem.de/fhem-=VERS=-fb7390.image">this</a> image. Note: it
        is needed <i>additionally</i> to the OS image from AVM.<br>
      <li>On the FB7270 unpack <a
        href="http://fhem.de/fhem-=VERS=-fb7270.zip">this</a> zip file to a USB-Disk,
        attach the disk to the FritzBox, log in, and start FHEM from there.
      <li>See also the detailed documentation <a href="fritzbox.html">here</a>.
     </ul>

    <h4>Debian/Ubuntu</h4>
    <ul>
      <li>Install <a href="http://fhem.de/fhem-=VERS=.deb">this</a> package.
      <b>Note:</b> For upgrading from 5.2 or earlier it is necessary to purge
      the old package (dpkg -P fhem), as the directory structure has changed to
      be the same as with .tar.gz or fritzbox.
    </ul>

    <h4>Unix / OSX</h4>
    <ul>
      <li>Make sure you have perl. Most certainly you will need the
          Device::SerialPort perl module, install it with "sudo cpan
          Device::SerialPort" or "apt-get install libdevice-serialport-perl".
          </li>
      <li>Download the <a href="http://fhem.de/fhem-=VERS=.tar.gz">
          .tar.gz</a> package, unpack it, and change to the unpacked directory.
      <li>start FHEM directly from this directory (perl fhem.pl fhem.cfg).
    </ul>

    <h4>Windows</h4>
    <ul>
      <li>See the <a href="HOWTO_Windows.html">HOWTO_Windows.html</a> for a
      detailed description.</li>
      <li>If you are using cygwin for your perl installation you can
      follow the guidelines for Unix.</li>
    </ul>
    <br><br>

    After the installation follow the <a href="HOWTO.html">HOWTO</a> for adding
    devices.
