Looks OK, though should be current=1 instead of zone=1

Looks fine.

One idea though:

Why not use type=zone, rather than firm? e.g.

Xpl-cmnd
{
...
}
Control.basic
{
Device=transmitter
Type=zone
Current=1
}

This will set the Tx zone to 1.

And to get the last zone:

Xpl-cmnd
{
...
}
Control.basic
{
device=receiver
type=zone
current=request
}

The reply would be something like:

Xpl-stat
{
...
}
sensor.basic
{
device=receiver
type=zone
current=2
}

This indicates the last signal came from zone 2.

Regards,

John
