I tried to add new modules thinking it could have been the conversion, but same thing. Also, they are all the same house/unit code.so you converted a ActiveHome file to a Activehome Pro one?
PS - i did a search and saw something about NOISE and to try it with the dryer running (doesn't make sense to me, but just so happens that I was testing while the dryer was on ). Not familiar with what NOISE is....Your confusing or the poster was, phase issues with noise issues.

The post may have concerned both as they are the most common issues facing users!
To see if it is your PC move your CM15A to another location and see if the timers/macros work for those problem modules.
Noise can sometimes be hard to weed out, but not impossible! ;) :D ;D
Is the CM15A in the same location as the CM11A was? ???
If so look at any new devices on that circit (like your new PC) and unplug them,just turning them off won't work. ;)
Keep in mind that if i use my palm pad, it WILL control these lights, it's just the computer (Active Home Plus) that is having the problem controlling them.
** The problem occurs not only with the manual operation thru the Active Home Software, but also with downloaded timers.

By any chance, do you have a 2nd Transceiver in your setup?
If the CM15A is the only one, and your PalmPad is successfully controlling all lights thru it, then Phase & Noise are most likely not a problem.
It is very strange that manually selecting the lights in AHP has a problem where the remote does not. Is the remote set to trigger a macro or for directly addressing the modules?
question about some of the replies about moving things or the pc not working ... do these recommendations hold true even though similar type modules are working right next to the ones that are not??
By any chance, do you have a 2nd Transceiver in your setup?if so this maybe the problem! Ahp needs to be configured properly for those to work!
Thanks for the info - i will try this stuff tonite and report back....
I think i still need it for when i want to control the lights manually, right?

well - as i was walking in from work, i grabbed the transeiver out of the outlet and come 5pm - the lites came on, so it must have been that.
Now that you guys helped me identify where the problem was - is there anyway i can use the tranceiver? I think i still need it for when i want to control the lights manually, right?
Thanks again...
Ok, they came on no problem, but come the end of night - problem occurs again .. I look outside and sure enough, all the lights that I was having problems with are still lit. I used the remote and they turned off fine.
I believe I have another tranceiver in my shed, but i highly doubt it's the same house code - could this be a problem?
...so i will have to look into the 'mapping' of my 'circuits'

This statement motivated me... see How to Map your Electrical Circuits (http://www.x10community.com/forums/index.php?topic=11117.new#new)
Is it possible that AHP is having problems when 2 different modules are set to the same house code and are both trying to be turned off at the same time ?
I am not sure how to tell if they are set as RF transmitters, but when i look at the log, i see receive RF, so I assume they are.Click on the module and select edit this will show if it is set as a RF receiver if it isn't change it! ;) :D ;D
hmmm... I don't have any of my tranceivers 'set up in AHP' ... Do I need to?Yes you need to! :) I'm surprised you haven't had more problems ??? as AHP will send a plc as well as the other trancievers causing signals to get lost or the other transceivers to lock up! Adding them to AHP will only improve your set up! ;) :D ;D

AHP v3.204 doesn't know about any of them *AND* everything is working just fine (well, as fine as the CM15A can be, compared to the ROCK-STEADY service the CM11A provided ::) )!Maybe if AHP knew about them your WAF would improve! ??? ::);) :D ;D
(not sure of when I upgraded to the Pro version, but thinking it was earlier this year- after my last use for Christmas lites.)
