Re: 3 broken WS12As?
My housecode is C, the 3 switches are C11, C15, and C2. I also tried
assigning them to A1 just for kicks.
I'm not worrying about dim/bright just yet, this is purely an on/off
issue.
The sequence is basically...
1) light is off
2) send C11 ON - no response
3) turn light on locally - works
4) send C11 OFF - light turns off
5) send C11 ON - light turns on
6) send C11 OFF - light turns off
7) send C12 ON (no device is actually on C12. C12 could be any address
really)
8) send C11 ON - device does not respond
9) send all units on - device does not respond
10) turn light on locally
11) send C11 OFF - works again
12) send C11 ON - works again.
So basically it works until some other X10 signal hits the line, at
which point it "locks up" or stops listening or something, i don't know
exactly what.
I can send those sequences from both the palmpad and from my Minitimer,
using it as a mini wired remote, with the same results. All 3 switches
react the same way (with different addresses obviously), and changing
the location of the transceiver or the minitimer has no effect. One
thing is for sure, whether I solve this or not, i'm not buying X10
branded switches again. I'll stick w/ the switchlinc stuff.
