Title: Some newbie questions about the SDK.
Post by: codefinger on July 30, 2010, 09:19:02 PM

Just getting started with the Active Home SDK and vb.net.  I can turn a lamp module on or off
regardless if I use "sendplc" or "sendrf" it works the same with my TM751 and CM19A.

So where/when/how would I need my program to be aware to send one and/or not the other?

Also, is there a way to import a list of active X10 devices into my program?

Thanks in advance for your kind assistance.

I am not a SDK user but may have a clue for you.

There are two interfaces the AHP now works with.

The original CM15A that has both a power line transmitter and receiver. Along with a RF receiver and transmitter.

The CM19A is strictly RF transmit and receive.

sendplc with a CM19A would still have to be an RF command as it has no power line transmitter in it.
It maybe be different with a CM15A that can send power line or RF signals.

Don't know if this will help or not
I have a nice little demo VB2008 express program you can download and test on this page
