Title: Strange Dimming Behavior
Post by: devedsmith on February 17, 2009, 03:23:41 AM

ActiveHome Pro is sending normal dim commands in macros but when I dim with the interface it sends "extended commands" which of course x10 devices don't recognize.

Any ideas on how to change that?

Also, why is the ActiveHome Pro application so clunky? It's made with all non-standard controls. It's like the programmers made their own control set before building the UI.

Do you know if the modules in question are the newer soft start versions?
Makes a difference on how they are controlled.

Yes, they are. But I can't find those in the AHP module list.

Plus some of these are LampLinc (SMartHome) which USED to work. Now they don't for some reason.
