RE: Event Wizard, SENDX10

[<mkanet@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi John,

Yes, all I'm trying to do is have the light to my fish tank turn on (light
dimmed at 50%) for a specified period of time, then turn off.

I just created a Determinator.  However, I still don't know what to put in
the parameters field.  I tried putting "/device=a1 /command=dim
/level=50"
in the Parameters field, but I think the syntax is wrong since the command
wont turn on the light.  Would you be kind enough to give the correct
parameters to type for SENDX10?

These are the field is have:
Action Name Fish Light
Action Type: Execute a Script
Run this Script: SENDX10
Parameters (optional): /device=a1 /command=dim /level=50


Thanks!
Michael

What exactly are you trying to do?
I'm guessing you're trying to control an X10 device at a particular time
of day?

If so, the easiest way to do this is to create a determinator that will
control your device, then test it to make sure it works.
Then create an event to fire the determinator at whatever time(s) you
want.

Regards,

John
