Title: Macro 101 question
Post by: Gismo on September 08, 2012, 05:55:47 PM
I have AHP 3.318 Win 7, with a cm15a and a TM751.  I never used macros before.  I have a PLW01 that is controlled by AHP by time to turn on and off say 7pm to 11 pm.  I have a few MS16A detectors and 2 TM751's.

What I would like to do is place the detector outside and have it turn on my assigned PLW01 when someone comes to my door.  But I would only want it to trigger during a window of time other than the programmed time. Say 11pm to 2am.  Can I do this totally thru AHP with out dealing with re-programming the detector .I know the detector is default at A1, and would be great to leave it at that since i know i will have to replace batteries.

Lets say I have PLW01 is set at C5. I have no idea where to go from here. 
Any help would be much appreciated, I'm sure once I get the basic hang of it I will be able to add on more macros for other devices.
