Download error - not enough space
« on: November 23, 2011, 04:21:57 PM »

I reinstalled my X10 Active Home Pro software and registered it. When I try to download to the interface I get a Download Error. It goes on to say There is not enough space in the interface to download your timers and macros. I have reset everything, reinstalled again, removed all power, etc. What is going on and how can this be fixed?

More info needed.  What version of AHP and which interface do you have?.  What timers/macros?   What type of computer?

You can't download to the CM19A. It doesn't have any internal memory.

I can't explain that.
However, the CM19A (black unit, attached USB cable) has no internal memory. The PC must be connected and turned on for it to work.

The CM15A (white unit, separate USB cable, four AAA batteries) is the one with the internal memory.

Interesting. Up to a few days ago, the software clearly showed a clearing go the data and download to the device. All my stuff was controlled by the ActiveHouse sw even though the program was closed. Great system up to now.

It positively is a cm19a, verified. The program is not running in the background. Not minimized, not in the active services list. The PC is on, the program is closed. With the PC off, of course it controls nothing as there would be no power on the usb port. Why do I get this new download error window that has never popped up before?

wc4r apparently does not understand that the CM19A has NO MEMORY and the PC and AHP has to to be running for modules can be controlled.   Timers and macros cannot be uploaded to a CM19A.  For AHP to control modules there must be a transceiver (TM751 or RR501) in the X10 system.

Please don't be condensending. I've been using x10 stuff for 15 years! I have built pc's for a living years ago. Nothing I mean nothing has changed here from 2 days go til now EXCEPT for the new error window. Time to dig deeper. If you do not have the answer/knowledge, keep quiet.

Yes latest version. YES, x10nets.exe process is running!
Brian's question was if you had RECENTLY updated to the latest version.
If so, what version were you using before?
I think with 3.318 (and possibly with a version or two before), you might not need to keep AHP open, as long as X10nets is running.
I think that the X10nets service can now control the CM19A timer and macro functions without needing AHP running.
I can ask the developer for confirmation on that, if nobody else can confirm it.

I have been using the current version for about 2 weeks now. More than a week before the error appeared.

Been awhile since I tested a CM19a with AHP.
I also believe timers would run if x10nets was running even if AHP was not.

I have not seen the Download error myself but will see if I can make it happen.
