I dont know why it seems to work that way with the communication (and
do we care? :-))). I guess both are simply in a mode that they do not
get into the right protocol state to communicate again...

And indeed the macro's are rather limited.... You can use the help in
AH but just some experimentation works best to figure things out in a
couple of hours (worked for me). I personally use my own H.A.
application that forks the X10COMM.EXE executable (exact filename may
vary) to communicate with the CM11 and that works fine for me. And
than I can "macro" whatever I want. I have had my window shutters
(blinds, i'm not sure how to call them properly in Englisch (i'm
Dutch), sorry), go up and down for at least a year with the CM11
timers and that worked well almost 365 days...
