I've been thinking about this over lunch, and I'm confused... do the AD10's
have a selectable option somewhere to set whether they are connected to a
press switch or a normal switch?

Bear with me here...

If they are usable with normal switches, as Mike said, and as I'd guessed,
then  the switch needs to go off-on to switch the light on once X10 has
switched it off- yes?  And it needs to go on-off to switch off a light that
X10 has switched on.

However, each time you use a press switch it goes off-on-off, so it would
seem that it can only switch the light off.  That can't be right, if you
can use a press switch with it.  Do you need to use a special press switch
which actually toggles the contacts on each press?

Something is missing- Am I making sense here?
