RE: X10 Schema and Preset Dim

["Eric Vickery" <ericvic@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Tom,

There must always be a level with a preset dim. When X-10 created the
Preset Dim command they wanted 32 levels and since they were going to
put the level in the house code portion of the x-10 transmission, which
can only deal with 1 to 16, they had to break Preset Dim into two
commands. That is how there is Preset Dim 1 and Preset Dim 2. Each
Preset Dim takes a level of 1 to 16 (technically 0 to 15) and with
Preset Dim 2 that level translates into 17 to 32.

I hope my explanation wasn't too confusing.

Eric

I suppose you would normally put that in the "level" field ?
I.e.:
command=predim1
device=A1,B7,G2
level=10

The medusa component ignores the level field for predim1 and predim2.
If you (or somebody else) acknowledge that a "predim" command is
always
used in combination with a "level" then I will add that to the
code.
(Minor change)
