i was just wondering if the serial cm11a interface can be used with AHP. i have been having some troubles with the cm15a ??? like turning one light off and another one coming on and 10 seconds later another light turns on :o and its freaking my wife out :P so i would like to do some testing with the cm11a. because i had not ONE problem with the old AH and cm11a.
thanks

I believe the short answer would be no.
Give us some more details as to what is happening. eg. What's different now that you started using AHP.
With out anything to go on, It's hard to make suggestions. Are your problems happening in your macros? If so try sticking in a few 1 second delays between commands and see that helps.

The CM11A can be used to find out what is going on with AHP and the CM15A but it can't interface with AHP.
Many users have done this purhaps one will chime in with the how to! ;)
As steven r stated Give us some more details as to what is happening. eg. What's different now that you started using AHP.
How did you import your setup to AHP? or did you just retype everything?
There are many things what you may have in your setup you don't need with the cm15a and if not configured correctly in AHP all kinds of strange things can happen!
Any repeater,transcievers in the mix? if so remove them and see if that helps! ;)

With the cm11a you maybe able to run Active Home and use the Tools Tab and look at the Communications Log. It should show anything being sent by any units including the cm15a.
I also would say any transceivers or repeaters in the mix.
Also have you tried a complete reset on the cm15a? Unplug from AC. Remove batteries. Reconnect to power; install batteries and redownload all times.

hey guys thanks for the replies ;)
i was using the original AH with the cm11a and every thing was peachy. :) when i went to the AHP and cm15a things started going haywire ??? first off i use the wireless slimline stick on switches next to the bed with the 16 device x10 reciever (sorry i forget the model num.) and lights would turn ON when you turned other lights OFF and then after acouple of minutes went by other lights would mysteriously turn themselves on with no provication, then i would switch back to the cm11a and the original AH and every thing was at peace again and worked perfectly. now i just started getting into this stuff and i don't use any macros or timers (yet)
thanks

...i use the wireless slimline stick on switches next to the bed with the 16 device x10 reciever (sorry i forget the model num.)...
Are you using that along with the CM15A? The CM15A is also a 256 device X10 reciever. (All 16 house codes with all 16 device codes.) See if you can do without the "16 device x10 reciever" (I forget the name also.) or make sure to turn off that code in the AHP.

As steve r stated

If that House code isn't turned off in AHP and your running the "16 device x10 reciever" you'll get lots of double commands and strange things happening.
