Title: AHP and my CM15A Problem
Post by: lorenzg on April 20, 2014, 10:31:40 PM

I am running Version 3.296 of AHP.  Sometime around daylight savings time it discontinued turning on/off my outside lights that are controlled by WS467 wall switches.  They were on several different house codes, but to simplify things I changed them all to the same house code (E1-E4).  I can get the lights to turn on by the AHP Tools/All Lights On directive. But I can’t seem to get them ALL to turn on at Dusk.  The timers seem to turn them all off at Dawn.

I have tried using a Macro triggered by E1 to issue an All Light On for House Code E.  This doesn’t seem to work.  However, if I manually click the macro all the lights turn on.

What am I missing here?  Thanks for any help. B:(

Short answer: The newest AHP version

Since the times for daylight savings time starting and stopping have changed AHP has had issues with this.
I don't even believe version 3.318 completely cured the issue.
However some have reported the conversion tool I created to bring a European version to 3.318 fixed the issue.
If this is the case updating to 3.318 should solve your issue, the  problem is the x10 servers are down which hold the installers and registrations.

I expect to have a new 3.318 full installer ready shortly.

Thanks for the tip.  I'll just turn off the DLST option and run it with fixed times.  I'll let you know if that works.

 :)% Pulled the DLST settings and used absolute times.  It worked like a champ.  Thanks!!  :)%
