Re: W800RF32 Service Updated

["Mal Lansell" <mlansell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Bob

I've just been reading up on the DS10A.  It appears to use an
extended form of RF message, which the W800RF32 supports (it's the
only RF reciever that does, apparently).  Unfortunately the xPL
service has only been tested with regular X10 RF remotes, and I
strongly suspect that it won't work with any of the X10 security
devices (DS10A included) that use the extended format.

However, the DS10 is available in the UK, so I will order one
tomorrow, and make any necessary changes to the xPL service.
