Title: Modules Status condition only code A?
Post by: showson1 on December 30, 2005, 09:32:16 PM

Hi all!
Just got my starter kit and LOVE it so far.

I got the Smart Macro module and I'm trying
to set a condition where a macro will run
only if a flag is set AND the module is
currently off.

Problem is I use house code C and when I
add the module condition it only has A
codes.. I can't figure out how to set them
to C.

If anyone has any info I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!

Not sure, but have you tried changing the
monitored house code to C?

When you add the module, right click on the module and select "edit Module".  It will open up where
you can change the name of the module and the house/unit codes.  Hope this helps.

As Brian mentioned, in hardware configuration set the monitored code to C.

I had the same problem.
My monitored HC is B, but I needed to check the status
of a  Lamp Module - A3 in one of my macros.

Changing the monitored HC was not an option.
What I did was created 2 Macros for the ON and OFF state of the Lamp Module on A3

Macro: Lamp ON (Trigger A3 ON)
Set Flag 2 (or whatever Flag # you want to use)


Macro: Lamp OFF (Trigger A3 OFF)
Clear Flag 2 (or whatever Flag # you want to use)


This way you maintain the ON/OFF status of your Lamp Module.

On your 3rd Macro, you check conditions of Flag 2
IF Flag 2 Set THEN  (Lamp A3 is ON)
  do this

OR

If Flag 2 Clear  (Lamp A3 is OFF)
  do this
