CM 15A not working as it used to
« on: October 26, 2011, 11:22:46 PM »

I have been controlling my house system with a CM15A.  A month or so ago, it stopped turning on certain lights.  I thought that my modules were defective so I replaced them.  Still having the same problem.  I have taken out the batteries, cleared the memory, and rewritten all the module schedules, and I am still having that problem.  Now there are three lights that are not turning on.

Is the CM15A defective?  I would appreciate any help I could get.

Thanks,

Terry

Have you done any X10 troubleshooting?
You may have a power line issue to that modules location.
Anything changed in the house? Like a new TV, Cell Phone Charger etc?
Do you have any phase coupling between incoming power lines?

It could be the CM15A starting to go south, but I would check for changes and signal problems first.

...Now there are three lights that are not turning on...

If you tuen them on manually, can you turn them off with the CM15A?
What type of modules are they?

If they are older Lamp Modules (or dimming wall switches), they might need to be re-defined in AHP using the "Old Lamp - no SoftStart" category.
