x10sw was created for the DS7000, it is possible that the SC1200 sends the info a little different.
Since I don't have a SC1200 I'm guessing.
AHP reports some signals differently then the SDK which x10SW is using.
If your willing to work with me and can send me exactly what x10SX is seeing from the SC1200 when an alarm is tripped I can add the info so X10sw is compatible with the SC1200
I can put something together so you can (beta) test run it!

The SC1200 does not send the All Lights On, All Units Off.
It sends On and Off powerline commands on the Security House Code and Unit Code it is set to. It also sends commands to the Security House Code Unit Code +1.
Like Default A1 A2 AOn, A1 A2 AOff.
That sequence also messed up some hardware revisions of Powerhorns.

Brian, thanks for the info.

Tuicemen, Sure I can work with you!  Tell me what you would like me to load or do.  Below is some info that might be useful when I hit the panic button.
I have set my sc1200 for house code A and light code 1 (default).   Normally I have housecode at K but did not want to trigger my powerhorn for testing.

I'll need to have a look at the user manual for the SC1200
If you set the first house code as A16 does the second automatically become A1?
I'll look into the code in a few weeks as I'm out of town right now.
However it doesn't look like it wont be to difficult to add the extra info.
 

[Brian H]

Yes I reset mine to Lightcode A16 and the second unit looped back to A1.

Ok Good to know!
Thanks Brian.
 

[Tuicemen]

Okay I think I've got a test build ready.
In order to keep a running tab of issues I've set up a Beta test thread on My Forum.
The catch is you'll need to register as a member to access this thread and to become a beta tester.
 

[Tuicemen]

I've decided to make the new version of X10SW part of the PCC Plug-in pack.
The current version which doesn't support the new SC1200 will remain available as a free app.

Of coarse any beta testers will receive a copy of the plug-in pack as a thank you for testing the new X10SW.

Tuicemen!!!    Remember me?   I have been lost in my automated house for a few years and finaly found my computer again.   

This may be off topic but if you remember I am a huge X10dispatch fan and use to help with new ideas.  I was happy to see that you may be helping to keep it alive.  I still use it and it is still awesome. 

My question to you is does X10dispatchwork well with BVC or does BVC do all that dispatcher did?  If dave made the code open BVC should get all the functions of X10dispatcher....  (I have not yet downloaded BVC and wanted to know your thoughts).

Also, can I tie your X10SW in with either X10dispatch or BVC

[Tuicemen]

Hey nate!
I do remember you<it has been a while!

X10Dispatcher works with BVC, PCC and most programs built with the SDK.
BVC doesn't do every thing Dispatcher does (Yet)
PC Companion comes closer to doing every thing Dispatcher does however it doesn't do Voice command.

X1OSW will work with any SDK built program so it will work with Dispatcher and BVC.
 

[Tuicemen]

Since adding support for the SC1200 and adding this to the PCC plug-in pack I've started a thread for it on my forum
For users looking for more info on this you may find it there.
