RE: X10 in Loo

[rj@xxxxxxx]

as long as your software is up and running when you turn the unit on it
will
report the units as being on or off, if the software is off then switched
back on it cannot go out and query the status of the modules.  All though I
believe some of the newer modules can be actively queried.

I understand that it is possible for some of the newer modules to respond
to
a status request giving their current status.
