Sorry but my grey matter don't work so good! (or is it gray?) I'm just not getting it! I'm trying to use AHP set up 6 motion detectors to individually trigger the X10Powerhouse that is supposed to set off the audible alarm and dial the neighbors to come running to arrest the burglars. Also needs to activate the 2- PSH01 Power Horns to blast the burglars out of their ear drums. My Active Home Pro doesn't have a X10 Powerhouse Model PS561 Icon. There is a low res picture of a unit that sorta looks like it called DX7000. Is this the right substitute for the unit I have or Is there a place to d/l the correctly named icons to drag into AHP?

Can someone tell me how, Using AHP, you get 6 different motion detectors to turn on the powerhouse unit and make it turn on the powerhorns while dialing the phone?

The DS7000 is the security console and some sensors in a kit.
The PS561 is the security console in the kit.
Are the motion sensors the MS10A security ones?
Do you have the SW39A On Alert Plug In for AHP?

Is your AHP kit using the CM15A or CM19A Interface?

When you start AHP the loaded plug ins screen tells you what is installed.

I don't believe AHP can trigger or control the security consloe, only arm and disarm it.

I also don't think you can write a macro to trigger from a MS16A to control the security console.

Was there a reason you chose the MS16A over the DS10A and MS10A security modules?
