RE: Automatic local control

["Keith Doxey" <ukha@xxxxxxx>]

Wire a table lamp int the same plug with a 15W bulb in it. The AM will see a constant load rather than the varying load of the TV's PSU and not switch on.

 

Easiest method is open the module and snip the link.

 

If the TV can be put on standby it is obviously remote control s why are you turning it off with an AM ?

If its to save the power it uses on standby you are probably wasting your time because the module will use some power itself

I've recently put an Appliance Module on the TV in the bedroom(thanks Homebase).  When I use the mini-timer on the bedside table (or any other method) to turn the TV off, it works UNLESS the TV is in standby, in which case it comes straight back to standby.

 

Homeseer is unaware of the modules reversion to On status, so I'm guessing local control is causing it.  Why?  And short of disabling local control what can I do about it?

TV is an old Sharp model if that's at all relevant.

 

Thanks
