Post by: steinie44 on April 10, 2007, 04:46:49 AM
Any One have a mod. to change the Unit code selector group to 9-12 and 13-16? ???

Oh well. If I see any I will post them. I know the Mini-Controller one was there.
Have you looked at IdoBartina's site?

Rather than expecting to find the EXACT answer to your problem, I would consider re-visiting those two sites with the idea of X10's known mantra of "Reusability Encourages Economy" in your head.

As you stated, you've already MOD'd 2 modules. If you trace the connections between the UnitCode Selector Switches and the IC for those 2, I'm sure that you will note a PATTERN (http://www.x10community.com/forums/Themes/x10theme1/images/post/lamp.gif). Popping open your Mini-Timer, tracing the same connections and applying the previously discovered PATTERN (which, IIRC, has been documented in a few places; I *KNOW* that I've seen the 4-bit binary HouseCode and UnitCode Tables.), you may be able to achieve your desired results *AND* write up a new article for the X10 Community. :)
