Title: AHP with Door/Window Sensors?
Post by: RAOUL99 on March 18, 2011, 02:23:29 PM

   Hi:

   I've been using X10 and Activehome(Pro) for quite a while and pretty much have my system setup the way I want and working well...it did take a while...

   Question: Is it possible to use the DS10A door/window sensor to trigger a macro in Activehome Pro WITHOUT having/using a security console? If not, does anyone know of another sensor that would work? I really have no use for a security system and prefer not to deal with one. I can use a motion detector but prefer not to...

   Any help would be greatly appreciated.

   Thanks,

   Rick

Yes you can use the X10 security sensors in AHP.
However you'll need the OnAlert plug-in.
The security console isn't needed.
