X10 Questions

["David Claxton" <UKHA@xxxxxxx>]

Hello,
      I am just about to buy my first X10 units
but I have a few questions.

1. The MS13 sensor units say they have a variable delay before sending
the
'Off' command. If you set the delay to 1 minute, does that mean that
the
light will switch off 1 minute after it has been activated or 1 minute
after
the person has left the room?

2. Can I get the MS13 to activate two different X10 units just by
setting
the two units to the same code?

3. Can the CM12U retrieve a status of each unit or do I need to buy a
TM13
as well as a CM12U?

4. Are there any problems using X10 units with or in extension leads?

Sorry if the questions are a bit obvious/simplistic, I just wanted to
make
sure about a few things before purchasing.

Thanks in advance,
Dave.
