I've got to admit, I'm getting there. I need a wm100 in my hands to start posting in the polls. Without the hardware, any of my answers are just speculation.

I had a sheet/list of named modules with unit/codes. And in minutes..... the wm100 was up and running easy-peeasy. But even with a running wm100 many of my comments may be just speculation.

OMG... I had to check the package to be sure. And mine came USPS. My mail was delivered last night after dark. Which means my unit sat out in the cold and snow all night long.

This is why I've not started polls for all the options I suggested that failed to materialize,

Post by: HA Dave on January 17, 2018, 06:46:24 PM: What a wonderful day setting up Home Automation! I was on a HA high. Even moved the little bedroom TV down to my man cave so I could utilize the HDMI on the raspberry Pi for audio.

Everything was going GREAT. Then the wife came home.... and the "garage door is open" voice announcement... was silent. I also noticed the lamp that comes on to indicate the garage is open.... didn't light up.

Tonight was grocery store night... so I only had a few minutes to confirm that my entire X10 setup had gone to crap... before we left.

While shopping.... I realized the TV had been on a filter in the bedroom. But in my man cave it share a receptacle with the CM15A. And while driving home (at a red light) I turned on some X10 lights using the new X10 app and the wm100. They worked perfectly! And unplugging the TV was quick fix for the other problems. Great day.
