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 t 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 to 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 t get the delay as short as
possible t avoid interference.
Maybe I will go about this a different way
with an IR device on the PC t receive IR and send X10 via PC X10 device,
that
way ALL transmission will be from one source. Is this the right way t
go?
Thanks!

Do
what I did when debugging mine ... make the delays about 1.5 seconds and
close then down 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 t
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 t 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 t say the
least.

Hi All
Just received my 'All House' IR-X10 device from
LetsAutomate, and cant get the device t 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 t work 10-20% of the
time, and LED only sometimes flashes.
I have
tried the ccf's on the floppy, and downloaded some others from remote
central, same problem.
I have fully charged
pronto, moved pronto t 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
