Greetings. Newbie alert! I have been trying to get: "set $All_Lights OFF" to work with my X10 items. The log indicates: 01/17/12 07:14:20 PM X10: Outgoing data=XA6AK 01/17/12 07:14:20 PM X10: Outgoing data=XA2AK 01/17/12 07:14:20 PM X10: Outgoing data=XA3AK 01/17/12 07:14:20 PM X10: Outgoing data=XA4AK 01/17/12 07:14:20 PM X10: Outgoing data=XA1AK yet only XA1AK, and XA3AK work. I can control all these device just fine normally. I am thinking it's a speed issue. Is there a setting to delay (say 10seconds) between sending multiple X10 commands some where?

Craig, I think you need to look at the physical layer first – you might be marginal on some of the devices and the burst of traffic causes errors in some devices (there is no error checking, recovery algorithm in X10 (it’s almost a 40 year old protocol!)). Are some of your lights on the opposite phase of the power to your X10 interface? If so do you have a phase coupler?
