WS467 Wall Dimmer Module
« on: September 30, 2012, 11:00:00 PM »

I was using the non dimmer wall modules and my active home professional computer system was working OK. When I  replaced some of the non dimmer modules with the dimmer modules only the non dimmers would work properly. If I put the dimmer modules on using the computer they would turn off properly but they would not go on as programmed.Does any one have a solution. Please email me if you have the answer.

What version of AHP are you using? 3.318 is the latest and can be found here if needed.
http://www.x10.com/support/support_soft1.htm

Are the wall switch modules Soft Start where the lights ramp On and Off or instant On and Off?
If they are the old ones that are not Soft Start. In AHP use the Old Lamp Before Soft Start list of modules.
If they are Soft Start then sue the Lamps list of modules.

Your description indicates you maybe using a Soft Start defined type in AHP where X10 Extended Messages are being sent to older wall switches that do not understand X10 Extended messaging.

I agree... we need to sue the lamps!   rofl rofl   (I know... a typo... just struck me as funny!)

Oh well. Spell Checker can't determine if I used the wrong word if it is spelled right.
Glad it was a laughable error.  ;D

Yes I got a good laugh!  I have done similar things in the past as well.... The wiring between the brain and fingers sometimes have crosstalk!  rofl
