Re: x10 problems between mains loops



John

I've had similar problems. I was able to solve them by placing the CM12U in
the breaker closet. This way the signal has to travel less before it reaches
the device.

When that doesn't work try then you might wanna check the X10 signals on
your mains using an oscilloscope.
