HomeSeer Question
I apologize if this is a stupid question. Have been controlling x-10 lights
with Homeseer for about 5 years with little difficulty. Recently had
problems with some not responding reliably, some not at all. Went through
the whole thing of trying to find a new noise source and so forth. I have
bridge/signal amplifier. Really could not find a problem. I know the
switches worked because I could plug a controller into certain outlets and
control them. Anyway, I decided the switches (Switchlinc 1 way) were older
so I would replace them with Switchlinc 2-way switches. The new switches
are all installed and actually work well. I occasionally have a problem.
My question is that I can poll the switches manually in homeseer and see
their status but the software does not seem to automatically do this after
it sends a command. I would think this would be automatic to make it more
reliable. I mean give a command and then ask to see if it was carried out.
Then it could reissue or correct it if it was not. I am only using the
basic interface. I have not done any of my own programming, I really have
little time. So am I missing something. Is there a way to easily have the
program do this and make the x-10 more reliable? Does this require special
programming? Am I completely missing the boat in how this works?
Thanks
Barry
