Where I used to work they had outlets and lights that could be
"programmed" to operate with a similarly programmed switch. They way
the switches and outlets where programmed was by two dials on each
fixture, one dial had letters the other had numbers. You could set a
switch to G-4 and then it would control all outlets and lights that
where also set to G-4.

These did not work via RF instead the switches sent a signal through
the AC wiring to all points in the building and would activate the
correct fixtures. I called Lutron to see if they had something like
that and they suggested I buy their new Radio RA. I'm not interested
in spending $150 for each switch and $80 for each outlet for the Radio
RA.

So does anybody know what company make the outlets that I first
mentioned that could be programmed to work via specific switches?
