What is the world is going on?
« on: November 24, 2009, 11:54:45 PM »

Just just recently my timers stopped working, I deleted all timers/macros, and re-downloaded them to the module, same thing, if the batteries die in the module, will it cause this?

I don't know if the batteries dieing alone will cause this, but I can say that my CM15A which I run without batteries must be re-downloaded if the power is out for more than a few minutes.

The most likely reason your timers stopped working is your using ver 3.236 of AHP (real Buggy version)
simple timers seem to work fine but thouse with dusk or dawn start or stop times fail.
Best to down grade to version 2.228 unless video capturing is a big deal for you. ;)
I ran the unit without batteries connected to the PC for over a year without issues but that wasn't with ver 3.236!

Simple.  Go to http://software.x10.com/pub/applications/activehome/  and look for ahp_updt_204.exe.  Save that and install it over 3.236. When the install is complete, open AHP and use the update link it to update to 3.228.

Doing that will NOT affect any timers or macros you may have.

Will I need to have the serial number in hand? I am at work right now, and gonna do it remotely.

Thanks


**Edit** I just checked and I am running 3.228
