Re: [mh] CM11 woes ... still

[Robin E. <ro...@ji...>]

Yes, I have a mini timer, the W800 puts things straight into the PC as 
MH can see its transmissions (I use it in place of a TM13).

There appears to be no response from the item A1 when I try to turn it 
on/off from MH.  This is the printlog output from using an HR10 with the 
W800....

I was moving around so you can see the MS13 spotting my motion as well. 
  Now something really strange .... even with the two different 
appliance modules ... set up for A1 neither turned on or off.  So, now 
I'm confused... seems like MH can see things on coming in thru the W800 
but nothing is on the powerline... have I got that right?

Pressing All lights on on the minitimer does not appear to be picked up 
by MH and pressing '1 on' and '1 off' on the mini timer gets no reaction 
from MH.  (MiniTimer set to A)
