Hello,  I just purchased X10 AHP, Will I be able to use a x10 door/window sensor to activate lights through AHP?  Instead of using motion sensors?  I did not see any door/window sensors in the security tabs.

Thanks
Brian

The DS10A Door/Window sensor transmits X10 Security codes.  You'll need the OnAlert software plug-in for AHP to handle these security codes.

FYI, the DS10A has a "heartbeat", i.e., it transmits its current Alert or Normal status approximately every 70 minutes so the receiving software knows that it's operational.
