When I use the switches with my mouse it works but not with the timers.  `

what do you mean by "it" works? what works?

That's easy.  When he's in AHP, and triggers a Module to turn on full, it does, but it does not turn on with the timer.   My suspicion is RayC's timers aren't constructed properly.

Why does everyone (ok newbies) have problems with AHP timers? I haven't used AHP since 2006 but don't remember timers being a problem. Is it a software version issue?

I don't think it's a software problem, it seems to be a user problem even though creating timers is not "rocket science". If RayC would post the contents of 1 module's timers, we could see what's going on.

Just reading between the lines all these years, I believe it's a combination of something that changed in AHP combined with the new versions of some of the modules.  I still haven't found a "one size fits all" fix.

Just my $.02.

In the real world, the only constant is change.

Yeah, I also think something has changed. Just too many "can't get timer to work" all of a sudden.

I agree. We already have one user with the CM19A finding it didn't handle dims if memory serves me with 3.296 and older 3.271 worked fine.

Okay....... don't ask how, but after conducting the successful test of the timer function on one device (lamp module) and the CM15 on the same power bar. I created a new file with the same timers as before on 6 modules. Everything is working according to the timer programs with the exception of one module. It does not turn on; however I manually turn it on and it goes off as programed.
This particular switch (leviton 6381) is the most important one for me as it controls the pr och lights.

I have tried a few thing including placing the CM15 at the panel, i have placed it also on an outlet on the same circuit, still does not go on; however it does go off according to the timer.

By the way, the timer sequence for this device is 'ON +10 at dusk' and 'OFF at dawn'. I have two other devices programed to come on at dusk and they turn on fine.

Any further suggestions?
