I reinstalled AHP and the Delay Cmmands in my macros have stopped working. Any ideas?
-
Write a new (simple) macro with a delay.... and see if it works.
-
Thanks for your response. I tried your recommendation. The macro works without any delay.
Macro Name: Guitar Amp OFF - Trigger L11 Off
DELAY 10min.
Guitar Amp M11 Off

It sounds to me like the real time clock in your CM15A has stopped for some reason. After you program your CM15A, do you move it to another outlet? If so, the batteries could be dead.
-
You were correct about the batteries - two were dead. I removed the CM15a from the wall, replaced the batteries and reinstalled it. Reloaded the programming and retried it. No luck! I have a second CM15a. I installed it, cleared the programming and reprogrammed it. Tried the macro and the Delay still doesn’t work.
-
Did you move like to like ie same version of Windows. Are both versions at the same update level. Did you migrate the SDK too. Try clearing your CM15 again and removing the batteries. Have you tried reconnecting to the old machine again to test the CM15 unit.

Thanks again for your time! The pc is the same Windows 10. The PC crashed and I rebuilt it. I only installled Tuicemans version of AHP. All of the add-ins I had were lost. Do I need to install additional software?
-
I did some more research and read about AHP Lifejacket. It restores the registration for SmartMacros and a few other plug-ins. I found the program on Tuicemen’s website. Downloaded and installed it and VIOLA my Delay command worked!!!
Tuicemen is the BEST!

Glad you got sorted out. A timely reminder to do a full system backup of your working system. It saves on all those headaches. Such an easier alternative to scratching your head looking for a solution.

:-[ Glad to see you figured it out.
Although AHP will run previously configured smart macros you can't create workable new ones without AHP and Smart macros being registered.

Regretfully I thought I figured it out BUT I didn’t. I installed AHP Lifejacket and the write registration button was not activated. When I triggered the macro from the PC it worked BUT when I triggered the macro from a palmpad the Delay function fails.

You need to follow the steps in Lifejacket found by clicking on the Question Mark.
If you do not right click on AHP-lifejacket and click run as Administrator, Lifejacket will fail 100% of the time.
That is by design as a safety step.
If you do not follow the steps in order it will fail 100% of the time.
Once registration has been completed and AHP reports it and the selected plugins are registered Lifejacket can be deleted(uninstalled).
