Hello;

Who to read the status of one x10 Module( two way module)

an take actions according the read code.

================================

According the link:http://www.homeseer.com/support/homeseer/WebHelp2/scripting/devices/scripting_devices_devicestatus.htm
One X10 device can ansewer with the following codes:

2 = ON
3 = OFF
4 = DIM

==================================

So who implement the following code in Comfort:

If X10 B1 = ON Then
    X10 A8 On
End If
If X10 B1 = OFF Then
    X10 A9  On
End If

Go to Events > X10 Receive Codes, select the X10 signal eg B1 and program the On Response and Off Response

Hello;

Your solution don't works if manually operate the X10 Module, so the only way

is request the satus of the module. Using the x10 Function's:

->Status request

->Status on

->Status off

But I don't know who implement that.

See atached picture.

A Status Request should cause the device to send its status via X10 Staytus On and off

But from what I remember, most X10 devices do not support the X10 Request command

If you need status, X10 is not a good solution, and anyway it is obsolete. Can you still buy it?

The closest product would be Z-wave which is supported by a UCM/Zwave

Hello;

=================

A Status Request should cause the device to send its status via X10 Staytus On and off

But from what I remember, most X10 devices do not support the X10 Request command


The following modules do not support X10 request Command:

-> LD11 - Lamp-/dimmer module, DIN rail mounting (ON/OFF/DIM)
-> AD11 - Appliance module, DIN rail mounting, on / off (230V, 16A)
-> SW10 - Shutter switch, in-wall


But following modules they support X10 request Command:

-> LWM1P – micromodule lamp module (on/off/dim/bright), max 250W
-> AWM2P – micromodule on / off (230V, 16A)
-> SWM1P – shutter micromodule (up/down/dim/bright)



If you need status, X10 is not a good solution, and anyway it is obsolete. Can you still buy it?

I installed confort and X10 in 2003 in my house, and it's not perfect but for the price it works well, so i don't have plans to change it.

If i can buy it ? Yes i can buy:

http://bmbelectronics.eu/products.php?id=1&resourceid=2

http://www.eurox10.com/Products/Micromodules.htm


The closest product would be Z-wave which is supported by a UCM/Zwave

If I will change/upgrade some in the future will be for the universal protocol KNX.

==================

So for the moment for use  with LWM1P I want implement the following code :

X10 A7 StatusRequest
 If X10 A7 StatusOn Then
    X10 A8 On
End If
If X10 A7 StatusOff Then
    X10 A9  On
End If

Can you help me?

For that remember , according the link:

http://www.homeseer.com/support/homeseer/WebHelp2/scripting/devices/scripting_devices_devicestatus.htm
One X10 device can ansewer with the following codes:

2 = ON
3 = OFF
4 = DIM
17 = UNKNOWN

When the x10 support was first introduced in Comfort in 2000 there were no X10 modules able to send the X10 status

So I am afraid comfort does not read the x10 status replies, and it is not expected that we will add more functionality to X10 now
