PH>Also, make sure that there have been
no
other transmissions of house/unit codes between the house/unit code for the
item
that you want to control being issued from
the Pronto and you hitting Dim/Bright as then the Dim/Bright command
will
go t the wrong device.
That may be it, I will unplug other
X10
devices t eliminate a noisy device. BUT 'Home Control' RF remotes/mini
timers
work fine.
This may be my ignorance of X10, the
7243AH does not 'buffer' the commands, eg if I send B - 3 - On, it
will
send the 'B' as soon as it receives the B, then send the 3 when it receives
the
'3', then send the On when it gets the On ??? Not as I assumed, it would
buffer
all three and send them as one string/command???
mmm..
So its best to get the delay as short as
possible to avoid interference.
Maybe I will go about this a different way
with
an IR device on the PC to receive IR and send X10 via PC X10 device, that
way
ALL transmission will be from one source. Is this the right way to
go?
Thanks!

Do
what I did when debugging mine ... make the delays about 1.5 seconds and
close
then d wn from there.
Also, make sure that there have been no other transmissions of
house/unit codes between the house/unit code for the item that you want to
control being issued from the Pronto and you hitting Dim/Bright as then the
Dim/Bright command will go t the wrong device.
(That was a real problem with my CCF originally as I found that some
Dim commands were being sent to the appliance module controlling my video
scaler rather than the LD10 controlling the lights.)

Hi Craid,
I have the
same
problem with mine I just recently bought.
It works if you press the
buttons in sequence but not in a button macro even with 0.2 seconds between
commands.
Very frustrating to say the
least.

Hi All
Just received my 'All House' IR-X10 device from
LetsAutomate, and cant get the device to work via IR (Pronto).
All buttons on the on the IR7243AH work fine 100% of the
time (ie No IR)
When I press house code on remote,
this works 100% of the time (one flash on LED)
When I press unit number on remote, this works 100% of the time
(two flashes on LED)
However, when I press
on/off/dimmer buttons on pronto I only get it to work 10-20% of the time,
and LED only sometimes flashes.
I have tried
the ccf's on the floppy, and d wnloaded some others from remote central,
same problem.
I have fully charged pronto, moved
pronto to within feet of the IR7243AH, same problem.
I dont have a plasma (yet!).
Im sure
its something real simple, and maybe one of you guys who has this device
could point me to a solution, or any tips, urls etc??
Is the non-All House version more reliable?
TIA
Craig
