OK, I'm back from a weeks' vacation and I
had said that if there wasn't some
indication (via X10 Pro answering my
questions, or more positive posts in this
forum, by the time I returned, I would
demand a refund...I have gone thru a
regular unit, and now a diagnostic unit,
over the last 6 months, and have seen no
good indication the fundamental flaws (and
I am not smart enough to know if it is HW,
SW, or both) have gotten or will get
fixed.  Can anyone provide words of wisdom,
or should I just demand a refund on
Monday?  Or another exchange?  Yes, I know
the 30 days are long gone, but Company must
refund purchase price if they cannot honor
warranty (by providing working unit), and I
have seen no real evidence that anyone has
gone from a non-working unit, to an
exchange for a good unit - with the
possible exception of "steverf"

I notified X10 of terrible time issue
problems when disconnected from PC.  (Some
history, to get better RF, they sent a new
unit in early Feb.)  They recently stated
that the early diag units had a flaw that
really screwed up the internal clock.  New
diag units are not supposed to have this
problem...maybe you have an early model.
X10 is issuing me a new diag unit now and I
will try to get that to work before I give
up.  If you have a one of these early diag
units, maybe you should try for a new one.
The software fixes have been working fairly
well for me....

Luck

Well ARF1410:  What's it going to be?

[arf1410]

They offered to send me another unit, and
cover the postage, so I'm giving it one more
try.  If that unit does not work, I'll
probably go with "3 strikes you're out", and
asked for a refund.  In my converesation
with the customer service mgr last week, he
implied a he would give me a refund (even
though I placed my original order 6 months
ago), if they couldn't get the unit working
to my satisfaction.

Arf,
I would be interested in what Diag unit you
get.  Mine is a 04J44 4Mar edition and it
seems to have a few quirks.  Maybe I should
have waited a bit longer...

If it is no greater than 05C10 you have the
early to mid March version.

I wish you luck...:-]

Please keep us hopefuls informed.

OK - I received THE REPLACEMENT dIGNOSTIC
UNIT TODAY, WITH code 05C10, and my PC does
not recognize it!  I tried to usual
soltions, rebooting, remove batteries, etc,
and no lck.  It does recognize the old
unit, which I have not returned yet!  I
don't know whether to laugh or cry!
Tomorrow, I will call and try to get a
refund.  What a bummer, as a Cm15A working
as advertized would be a great product...

[arf1410]

I surrender ! They had no suggestions on
how to fix the problem of the PC not
detecting the unit.

I spoke with a customer supt. mgr. this
morning, and I will send both my units back
for a full refund, after 7 months of
frustration.  I will continue to watch this
forum, and if I find reason to believe the
problems are fixed, i may re-prchase this
item, as in THEORY, a prodct that has all
these features for 50 bucks is great - if
it worked!

Not sure if I'll buy the 1132CUP or
continue to use my CM11A...

[Observer]

My system is now operating satisfactorily; I
have replaced the X10 AHP/CM15A with 1132CUP
and V572AB and discarded the TM751’s.
Thanks X10 Company.  Your product
performance, service, and attitude helped me
decide.  Life is good again!

[Lurker]

I'm out.  Returning CM15A after 5 months.
Will go to CUP unit everybody is talking
about here.  X10 will not get my support
anymore.  None of my friends or anyone I know
will ever buy X10 products again.  Bye by X10
and have a good life.

[One who is watching]

That folks was not me.

[Helpful Hints]

Me nether I've already ordered mine.

[SteveRF]

I am going to continue using mine and try to
solve the minor glitch with the motion
sensors by blocking the light.  That should
help with the simlutaneous signal issue.
Everything else seems to be working ok for now..
