Re: Preventing Random X-10 Code interference...

OK. Can we conclude that the filters solved any noise related problems and
what remains is related to actual events triggered by motion sensors and
multiple transceivers?

One other contributing factor may be the AHP software. It might be creating
phantom events by being overly aggressive in trying to make sense of what it
sees after a collision.

Both the RR501 and CM15A _should_ sense collisions, stop, wait for a
pseudo-random number of clear powerline cycles, and retry. In this case one
should sense a collision, allowing the other to complete it's transmission -
then the one that paused will transmit. You should see multiple codes rather
than garbled codes. I tested briefly with the CM15A & RR501 combo and saw no
unusual behavior _BUT_ I was using a CM11A to report what was on the
powerline and never looked at the AHP software.

Do you have a phase coupler?
