CM11A X10 controller multiple codes in one message
Posted: Sun Jun 19, 2005 3:27 am
The CM11A is capable of assigning multiple unit codes to one house code and put out an X10 command like for example DIM to all of these unit codes at once.
An example would be:
A;1;2;3;4;5;6;DIM 10. All assigned unit codes would get the DIM 10 command at the same time which would dim all the lights at the same time in stead of dimming them all seperately. This looks bad and takes a lot more time.
Now HouseBot only handles:
A;1;DIM
A;2;DIM
A;3;DIM
etc etc
This obviously takes way more time then it could be done when fully using the potential of the CM11A. This feature has been requested on several occasions in the past year already, but I believe this is the first time it is posted here where it belongs.
