[mh] X10 DS10 strange behavior

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Hello,

  Recently my DS10 that I use for a garage door sensor has been going wonky. I have a main MH instance, and the X10 controlled through a proxy instance. This has been incredibly reliable for years. I'm at a loss to figure how to start troubleshooting. I've been in the garage and haven't seen the DS10 light up each minute, so I'm thinking that something else on the powerline is causing 'false positives' leading to errant notifications.

  I've removed notification to prevent misterhouse from constantly speaking about the garage door, however I would like to have this back as it is quite useful for us. Any ideas?

My items.mht

RF,	F3,	garage_ds10
DOOR, garage_ds10, garage_door

My code

if (state_changed $garage_door ) {
	print_log "Garage Door is now $garage_door->{state}";
	if ( state $garage_door eq 'open' ) {
	   speak (rooms=> "all", mode=> "unmuted", text=>"Garage Door has just opened");
	   set $t_garage_door 30*60, 'speak (rooms=> "all", mode=> "unmuted", text=>"Garage Door is still open")',4;
	   if ($Dark) {
		print_log "Garage open, turn on outside lights";
		set $outside_light '100%';
		}
	   }

	elsif ( state $garage_door eq 'closed' ) {
	   unset $t_garage_door;
	   speak (rooms=> "all", text=>"Garage Door has just closed");
	   }

	else {
	   print_log "Unknown Garage Door event: $garage_door->{state}";
	   }
}
