I'm getting a weird happening in the Activity Monitor.   I have four modules my Outside room, the module addresses are O1, O2, O3 and O4 the timers are set for On at 30 minutes before dusk.  If I look at the  Activity Monitor it also shows O5, O6, O7 and O8 which do not exist.   Strange.

Didn't happen today, strange.  Wonder why.

Did the Activity Monitor indicate a received or sent O5,O6,O7 and O8?

Sent.  no such module exists.   O5 and O6 exist at Christmas time for outside lights, no other time.  No reason exists for that one time item which did not happen today (February 19). Christmas file was not used on 2/11 when the oddball event happened.

do you delete them and forget to empty the trash ??

do you have it in another room ??

No to both of them.   The modules that don't exist (from my Christmas.ahx file) are O7 and O8 which do not exist.  The ones that do exist are O1, O2, O3, O4, O5 and O6.

did noise can do that

[Dan Lawrence]

Considering the event happened  only ONCE and never again, it was some kind of weird happening.  I'm not going to worry about it.

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!  There`s a ghost on your system !!!!

I did a total removal of AHP (after backing up all my .ahx files to separate media) including all folders related to AHP. Rebooted the PC and reinstalled AHP and all my .ahx files.  No oddball files (O5, O6, O7 and O8 which do not exist) appeared in the Activity Monitor.   I'm not responding to anyone on this subject from today on.

Which version did you re-install?

3.310.

For what it's worth, I see bogus addresses/devices in Activity Monitor quite freqently.  I don't know the cause, but I always suspected it was due to multiple macros (or perhaps commands from multiple actual devices) issuing codes at the same time, and causing collisions, which show up in the Activity Monitor as bogus device codes and/or bogus command logs.  Unfortunately, I do not know whether this theory holds water;  it's only my guess, based on numerous observations.

If the theory is true, then perhaps you saw an artifact of some sort of command collision due to transmissions from multiple sources, that mucked up the actual unit codes, or at least "confused" the Activity Monitor.

Like I said, just a theory, so take it for what it's worth.

[evadorev]

I agree with you that can be a command collision due to multiple command sources or a noise burst caused by the electrical line.

it`s not supposed to affect your system.
