Yes please
Gareth.
I’ve just looked
at
the floor plan, and if I use the RF receiver in the PC the longest run will
be
7metres. I’ll check on the Radio Agency’s web site to see what that freq is
allocated to. It may be that it is used in mainland Europe but not in the
UK.
If I can get it to
work I can then use the Omni II (www.homeauto.com) as the HA controller
which supports extended dim etc AND has decent X10 support, using the RF
keypads to generate macros.
How long do the
batteries last?
Tim.

So I suppose the answer is to use the
Homeseer RF receiver and buy some
US RF pads. What frequency do they operate
on?
Tim.

I've got
Homeseer, and although I haven't actually tried this out, I
can't see why it won't
work.
At the moment you're
going:
IR -> X10 ->
Homeseer -> X10 -> Devices
You've got two sets of X10 delays in there. So how about
putting an
IR receiver onto a
serial port on the Homeseer machine, which would
give:
IR
-> Homeseer -> X10 -> Devices
Should cut down your delay!
