Title: CM15A v. TM751 Transiever
Post by: arf1410 on November 28, 2005, 10:39:50 AM

Another question that stems from
controlling outdoor christmas lights ...

I have outdoor lights on codes F1, F2, and
F3.  If I plug the TM751 transiever into an
indoor outlet, I can use a Palmpad
controller to turn on or off F1, F2, and
F3.  However, if I unplug the TM751 and
plug the CM15A into that same outlet, the
palmpad can control F1 and F3, but not F2!

Any ideas?  My only GUESS is that there is
some noise or signal degredation on F2, and
the TM751 outputs a higher voltage than the
CM15A, so it can overcome this
interference, but the CM15A cannot???

I bet you are right !  I saw a post some time
ago referring to a mod or adjustment that can
be made to the CM15A to alter the signal
output level. I lost that post.  Guess we
would have to invest in an X10 signal meter
to accurately plot the strength changes... a
thought !

I also remember the post regarding changing
the CM15A output voltage.  Unfortunately,
this forum does not have search
capabilities.
