Title: Just does not want to work
Post by: robandcathy on August 15, 2006, 08:58:44 PM

I have the macro function, with the eagle eye sensor on D1 I set that to my trigger and the first line is to turn on B2 Front door light wait 5min and then off, I look in my activity monitor and see that D1 is received but I never see the B2 ON signal sent, does anyone why? from my remote B2 works fine also the sensor has fresh batt. so I'm sure the signal is good

Try a one second delay in the macro before B1 activation.  This worrked for me in a similar situation

I meant before the B2 ON activation

Do you see a 'B2 ON' being sent if you manually activate the B2 module from the AHP GUI?

Make sure House Code "D" is set as a "Tranceived House Code" in AHP Hardware Setup.

From my experience with AHP, I would suggest setting all of the houscodes to transceived unless this causes problems.  I think the macros will not be triggered if the house code of their trigger isn't set to be transceived.
