Using AHP 3.318v and cant get anything to work (turn on/turn off/etc). wondering if anyone has this issue or have no issues at all.? CM19A works fine. thx

[Brian H]

The CM11A is enabled in the Tools, CM11A Configuration tab?

When you are using the CM19A.
Is the TM751 being used to receive the RF commands from the CM19A in the same outlet where you are trying to use the CM11A?
If not try the same outlet where you are trying the CM11A.
You could have a power line signal issue.

Well i got the CM11a working for the most part. plugged it in the hd-tv/blu-ray outlet. go figure right? most of my modules are working have a couple areas where not reliable. turns on not off or dim.could be worn module or wiring issue?

[Noam]

It might be noise. When the light comes on, it might create enough noise that the module can't hear the "off" command. This is most common with CFL or LED bulbs. Incandescent bulbs *usually* don't have this issue.

Or, it could be a bad module. Does the same module exhibit the same issue elsewhere?

Gonna try it in other location sometime. its a x10 wall switch. but glad i can use the AHP program for the most part. thanks for the links guys!

I noticed when i used my old CP290 the light module triggered fine. so i guess the switch module is fine and just a weak signal from the CM11a.

[Brian H]

Could also indicate that you have noise, signal suckers or phase coupling problems and the higher output from the CP290 is strong enough to get to the modules. While the CM11A can't.

I was thinking to use the CP290 for just the mods that the cm11a cant. least for now til i see/try and fine a solution. but currently cant download to the cm11a so might have to use CP290 for whole house.lol

Just get yourself a flame thrower repeater (XTBIIR) for Christmas and go back to the CM15A. You'll be happy.

well i dont know how much improvement the cm15a is. i probably should of kept one of the 2 i had. i do like using the AHP software compared to 20 yr old light house or similar versions.lol

From a strength of powerline signal output, it is poor, but it has many advantages over the CM11A and CP290. However the XTBIIR repeater will dramatically take care of the low powerline output. $0.02.

where do i get a XTBIIR repeater? that will improve my signals thru the CM11A? i also noticed when i shoot a command thru AHP it seems to work better than when the interface is only connected.
