Different platforms for X10 on the Raspberry Pi

Actualy the wiki says to install Mochad and gives you the link to download it. If it was included you shouldnt have to do a separate download.

Oops.....no scripts required so. Yes I can vaguely remember messing about with scripts alright. Glad to see they've included what they term native support now.

question:  I have a fully functioning and programmed AHP & cm15a running on my main windows 10 64bit machine.  It turns on and off my x10 security system each evening and morning respectively.

I am beginning to think I can leave that alone and yet ADD this domoticz and its own clearted memory cm15a ALSO to do things.

Until I can find a way to transmit security codes with domoticz (I am working on this) I cannot replace my standalone programmed cm15.

I am also working on figuring how to be able type some my domoticz server address into a web browser along with a specific X10 lites on or off command so I can give my wife a simple one click icon on her apple computer to reset our awful DSL modem 2-3 times a day as required...

True?  Anyone see any issues with running two separate cm15's doing separate stuff?

I don't think you'll get the x10 security codes working in Domoticz. You may have to add a 3rd party solution into the mix. I think others have tried and failed.

@mike I believe to do security code sends with Domoticz you'll need to setup HA-Bridge and do a simular workaround you did with HG and the Broadlink RM
Mochad can see the Security codes but can't send them from what I've read.

I have run 2 CM15A + RPi w/ HG in the past without issue.  I used one as the unit actually doing the work and the second to simply record transmitted commands so as to track what the main unit was seeing and doing.  I also did the same thing with AHP + CM15A as the monitor prior to switching to HG.  As has been mentioned, the key is to make sure you don't have both performing competing actions and ideally turning off transcoding on one CM15A.

I figured I would end up there too.

"

Just look at the web Api calls on your devices in Domoticz and you can type them in the browser address bar. Should work ok."

Ya, bit so far I have clue where to look for these...  maybe a log somewhere...

Mike I don't use Domoticz but here's a typical example of operating a device using a URL directly from the browser address bar. You should be able to figure the exact syntax yourself.

I will start a new post, but please give me your example (did not come thru).    tnx
