X10 Controller Oddness?

by David White <whitedavidp@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Apr 26, 2008 at 10:46 AM

I am still somewhat new to all this so pardon the newbie questions...

I have 2 manual controllers, a CMA11, a number of modules (light and 
applicance), and a couple switches (XPS3 alone and with XPSS or WS14A) 
installed in my house. Generally, these work well and as expected. 
However, I am trying to debug an occasional issue so I am running my 
ActiveHome (v 1.3) connected to my CMA11 and watching the communications 
log.

In so doing, I am using my manual controllers - an MC460 and a Radio 
Shack mini controller timer - to turn units on and off. When I do this, 
I do not see any activity in the communications log for the device which 
is supposed to be controlled (B 1-4). Instead, I always see an M13 
followed by an M All Units Off with each controller action (both off and 
on actions). This seems odd to me:

(a) Why don't I see something in the log for the B1 device I am turning 
on and off? The unit does indeed go on/off.

(b) Why am I seeing any activity on the M house code when all the 
controllers are set to B?

I must be missing something obvious.

Thanks,

David
