Title: VCR commander and DS7000
Post by: chris on April 23, 2005, 04:07:42 PM
Any one figured out how to get the DS 7000
to work the VCR comamder when the alarm is
tripped?

I don't think you can do that. The VCR
Commander uses RF signals from a motion
sensor to activate it. The DS7000 only sends
line signals and the Security RF Sensors
don't send the same data as normal motion
sensors. The VCR Commander will most likely
ignore them.

Thats what I was afraid of. I am happy with
the peformance of the security system but I
bought it because I thought all X10 stuff
worked together. Guess I'll have to keep
working on it. Maybe I'll come up with
something.
Thanks

I need a REPLACEMENT for the DS 7000
console.
My present console is Model PS 561--which
is years old.
