Subject: [ukha_d] visual basic control of TW7223 or XM10E

Hi

Has anyone had experience of using Visual Basic (version 6) to
control an X10 main interface such as the TW7223 or TW5223 or XM10E,
using the serial port.

I have some documentation about it, but need some help with the code.

I am using the MSComm component in Visual Basic to talk to the serial
port,and can quite happily set the port (MSComm1.CommPort = 3), set
the settings (MSComm1.Settings = "4800,N,8,1"), open it
(MSComm1.PortOpen = True), etc.

Now I need to know how to send signals the X10/main interface will
understand.

I have tried (MSComm1.Output = "0x86,0x64") which I thought might be
A1, but to no avail.

Does anyone hav some VB source code I could have please.

Cheers

Rid
