The one schema you're probably missing is x10.security, which xPLRFX
uses for all X10 Security RF and Visonic devices.

For the transmitter, the only xPL schemas used are x10.basic and
x10.security.

I'm not trying to have a dig with this next comment (and I really am
not - I'd just like someone to try to convince me otherwise), but I've
always wondered what the purpose of the fancy gui really is - sitting
at a PC turning your lights on and off by hand seems like a failure of
automation to me - you may as well just use the switch on the wall.
