Re: xPLHal hung on startup

George,

I'm looking to fire macros first and then I want to utilize the X10
DS10A wireless switches for remote sensing - but one step at a time.
My W800RF hasn't arrived yet but I'm sure I will have more questions
when I get it hooked up.

I'll definitely keep in touch.
