My OS X application "XTension" has been working with the
CM15 for over a month now and seems to be nicely
stable.
At this time, it sends/receives powerline commands, and
receives all wireless types (including security codes).
I still haven't found a way to make it actually Send RF
commands, but it is possible that this (2nd) copy of the
unit is flawed.
Also, the design scope of my software is such that it will
never support downloading to the interface. The
intelligence remains in the host, which means that the
Mac must always be powered on.
I think that those who are serious about home
automation will see that trying to run a home with the
pico brain that is in the CM's, is just not very satisfying.
XTension has been on the market since 1996, before the
CM11 came out. It too suffered a long introduction stage,
and some units are still delivered half-dead. But they did
get better, and there are thousands of them serving in
homes today...with a little help from a Macintosh :-)
BTW: Many thanks to all those who spent hours reverse
engineering the CM15.
