Spent all last night playing around with it and doing a bunch of new responses - seems to be working well now.. Will report back tonight.
Am off to install new enclosure and slave in the garage then just got to connect it up to the gate posts and work out how to integrate the electric gates :-)
I love comfort!!

It\'s significantly better now... We just got home and the outside spots were on....but walked into the kitchen and it again only switched on one channel rather than activating scene 1.
cheers

If the response managed to send a valid command to Rako then the problem may be the wrong command
Use Hyperterminal to send the same command to Rako and see if you get the same result

It usually sends the right command - its only on odd occasions that only one channel turns on and not the whole scene. I would say 99% of the time the right thing happens.

Guys - this still doesn\'t work consistently - an example today - I have button 4 in the hall switch set to turn on scene 4 for the landing upstairs - via comfort eg its on its own room - comfort receives the command then does an action that turns the lights on - so comfort sits in-between the rako switch and lighting unit which gives me so much flexibility - comfort rocks!
However instead of turning scene 4 on it turned on channel 1 - same thing as it does in the kitchen some times.
Tried it probably 4 or 5 times until it turned on the scene rather than the channel.....
Very irritating - any ideas?

Hi, schford, the correct setting for Rako scene is: Room:channel
cene, if you just set room and scene, the channel become random( or the rako system will remember the last time setting), your problem will happen,check your response and add channel setting between room and scene!

Hi HEfeng,
I think you might have cracked it - initially when I read your reply I thought no it cant be as a scene controls multiple channels but then I thought hang on when the rako sends it I bet it sends chanel 00 so every channel is affected b y the scene sent - so let me try that...
I\'ll go change all the code where I don\'t include channel
Will report back later

HeFeng I think you might just be a genius - no issues at all now *fingers crossed it continues!*
