Having trouble getting some light switches to work with Mochad. Mochad configuration Transponder - TM751 Transmitter - M19a Light Switch - WS467 Handheld remote - HR12A NC output on host: 11/27 10:59:26 Tx RF HouseUnit: C7 Func: On (WS467) 11/27 10:59:31 Tx RF HouseUnit: C7 Func: Off 11/27 10:59:33 Tx RF HouseUnit: C8 Func: On (WS467) 11/27 10:59:37 Tx RF HouseUnit: C8 Func: Off Result - no lights Working Light: 11/27 11:02:12 Tx RF HouseUnit: C1 Func: On (TM751) 11/27 11:02:15 Tx RF HouseUnit: C1...

I haven't found a way to make udev work. However, I added an entry in cron to start mochad on reboot. I'm not planning to disconnect the X10 interface so it should work. After several reboots mochad continues to start.

I read the post and understand most of what it says. :-) What is not clear to me is what should be included in the service file for systemd. I haven't done many services and what I have were based on samples.

Did some further testing this morning. Rebooted the system and all commands failed. Ran mochad using sudo and it started working again. Seems to be missing a "mochad.service" file for systemd. Does anyone have a working file that correctly starts mochad using systemd? When I check the status of the mochad service I get: sudo systemctl status mochad Unit mochad.service could not be found.

Strange...I gave up testing for several hours and one of my lights came on after I stopped. Now when I send commands either through nc or via DomoticZ, the X10 switches work.

I was using mochad on an Ubuntu 16.04 LTS system that died recently. When I replaced it, I built the system using 18.04 LTS. Now, mochad doesn't seem to load when I plugin my CM19A. I can see that ubuntu recognizes it via lsusb. Bus 001 Device 013: ID 0bc7:0002 X10 Wireless Technology, Inc. Firecracker Interface (ACPI-compliant) Has anyone found a way to run it under 18.04?
