Command ignored !
« on: October 14, 2006, 01:54:19 PM »

I use ActiveHomePro for programming CM15A interface.
I defined 1 macro to open 3 modules on A1, B1, and C1 code house
CM15A self running (no PC)

Why while CM15A execute this macro, If I press to D1 on my remote RF this command D1 is ignored ?
Note that if I wait after that a macro is terminated for press to D1 on my remote RF, so this command D1 run fine !

Thanks

I too have seen this. It appeared to me that while the CM15A is executing a PLC command, it doesn't listen to the RF input. When I put small delays within a macro, it seemed to give the RF commands a window to get in during the macro's execution. I haven't dug into this deeply enough to come up with some hard facts, but this is what I observed.

I just seen this yesterday with my alarm. When my 49-1000 console arms away it sends out a O1 O2 Oon O1 O2 Ooff. (house code is set to O)   At the same time my CM15A gets the same signal from the remote to arm away. I have a macro that turns on a light waits 1 second and then turns it off. The macro walks over the last O2 Ooff signal. To fix this I added a 3 second delay to the first line of my macro. The alarm now has time to complete its cycle.
