Okay, you guys have me going nuts. I love this!!! (still new, bear with me if it is a duplicate question) Here is my setup. Computer A: MH with the CM11A. I have all the code for the X-10 devices set up on this computer including commands and timers for the lights and appliances. Computer B: MH minimal code install without CM11A. I'd like to control X-10 lights from Computer B. I have searched the archives and either didn't find my answer or didn't understand it. I guess what I am wanting is to set up a command on Computer B like 'All Lights On' and need it to tell Computer A to run that command. |

Try this from computer B: .../mh/bin/mhsend -host ip.A -run "All Lights On" Where ip.A is computer A's ip address (or name if you have a HOST file setup to alias a name to an ip address). mhsend is a stand alone perl script, so you do not need mh running there (although it will not hurt).

I'm looking for a little help. I have been experimenting with the snpp_page script in mh/bin but I have't been able to make it do exactly what I want. Specifically, passing the contents of variables to it in the message body. I have succesfully made it send a page but not the content of a variable. Anyone using snpp_page to do this? If so, I would appreciate a look at your code. Thanks, --Ron Wright ro...@fl... |

I got my new toy (X-10) a couple years ago and it rocked for a while. It had become an old toy till last week when I discovered MH. Bruce, you are on my list of most loved people ever!!! 1. Me 2. Eberhard Anheuser and Adolphus Busch 3. Bruce Winter 4. My Girlfriend Okay, enough with the mushy stuff. I have another question. I just installed an X-10 wall switch. It works from the switch. It works from the X-10 universal remote that came with my kit. That uses the X-10 powerhouse RF Transceiver module (RR501). Since the RR501 can control it, it works with X-10 signals, but, I can't control it from my PC. Neither MH or the ActiveHome software will do anything with it. Is this a CM11A problem? Any Ideas?

It could be it is on another leg of the power line. You might try plugging in your cm11a into a different outlet somewhere else???

I just found a Y2K update on the X10 website that I downloaded to the CM11A. I also rebooted my computer (which I am pretty sure I have done several times since installing the switch). But, anyway, it works now. Dunno why or really care as long as it keeps working :) > > > It could be it is on another leg of the power line.

Neither MH or the ActiveHome software will do > anything with it. Is this a CM11A problem? Looks like you got this working. If it quits again, it is likely a noise problem due to something else plugged and/or turned on nearby. X10 has noise issues. Some good posts on the topic can be found by searching for 'x10 noise filter' here: http://www.geocrawler.com/lists/3/SourceForge/1371/0/ Bruce |

Well, I did a search on Nick Kemp and found a post he made a long while back in some list. In his sig file was 'Home Automation Application Guide'. When I do a search on that, I get a link to here which had everything in his sig: http://my.ohio.voyager.net/~dhoehnen/ha/list.html No mention of him here, maybe he handed off the website or something. Hope this helps.
