Re: [mh] Upgraded from CM11A to PLM

I've done some investigation and learned the following: 1) The X10MS device (hawkeye motion sensor) instantiates X10_Sensor via the mht file. 2) The X10_Sensor makes a call to X10_Item constructor without any parameters; X10_Item->new() 3) The needed parameter is $interface 4) Without a $interface, the X10_Item constructor attempts to automatically find an interface. 5) Apparently, the CM11A was an interface that the X10_Sensor was happy with. I think what is missing is that for some reason the W800 is not considered an interface which is useful to the X10_Sensor. I will continue to investigate, but I thought someone might know more about this than I. Somehow the W800 continues to process the Hawkeye messages. So, everything technically works, but there appears to be some odd dependency between X10_Sensor and CM11A which causes a Dummy_Interface to be required in absence of CM11A.
