Thanks to everyone on this list who helped me come to grips with Comfort programming, esp. Michael McAree, and  - I've now managed to alter the system so that each sensor/PIR send out a unique X10 command, so I can pick it up with HomeSeer and action from there. Except that....

The only problem I've encountered is that in my Node 0 ( http://quickplaceuk.lotus.com/QuickPlace/garethcook/Main.nsf/h_Toc/E2B1151595CEA78980256A15006256CC?OpenDocument ), no X10 signals are leaving for the rest of the house - so it looks like I may need to do some detective work, and maybe have to buy a filter - assuming it IS an appliance and not the spur that is causing the problem. If I plug in the Infrared to X10 unit, that can't send signals out either.

When I plug an appliance module in next to Comfort, the "lamp" does come on - so I know I've done the codes correctly in Comfort.

I've put a little diagram of my x10 system up at my website (http://garethcook.com , click on X10 Layout at the bottom) - it's simplified but shows the necessary information.
