Re: Re: X10 Question



If we're offering firmware improvement ideas for LD11s how about... ;-)

"Instant off" and Variable ramp rates - both via Extended X10
commands

Maybe the next X10 product for Li - LD11 with status response (if available
patents allow?)  :-)

Sorry, I miss read a bit of your post. With Din rail modules the norm
is to use momentary switches so there is no on/off state on the
switch and therefore the x10 equipment always works. It is true that
with plug in modules someone can turn off the socket and the x10 unit
will then be inaccessible. And my rant about lack of status feedback
still stands.
