Hey guys!

I have a question. I have a motion detector
on my roof terrace and would like to be
alerted to any activity when I am downstairs.
However, it is usually windy up there, and my
curtains and canopy material are tripping the
detector. Is there a way for active home to
keep track how many times the detector was
tripped during say 10 second period. As in,
1st trip--set flag 1, 2nd trip--set flag 2,
etc.....if flag 4, then sound wall chime?

Is this at all possible?

My other question is this. Are there any
programs or plug ins out there to control my
cm15a by voice?

Thanks,

Roman

Roman,

As far as controlling the CM15A by voice..

Roman: You could probably do something like
this (assuming M1 is the macro)

Macro M1 if F1=0 & F2 = 0
Set F1
Wait 30 seconds
Clear F1
Clear F2

Macro M1 if F1=1 and F2=0
Set F2

Macro M1 if F1=1 & F2 = 1
Clear F1

Macro M1 if F1=0 and F2=1
Chime ON

If M1 is triggered, it will wait 30 seconds
(I know you said 10 seconds, but I don't
think this would be long enough to ever get
a chime) to see if it is triggered 3 more
times (4 total) before chiming, otherwise
it will clear the flags and start again.

Thanks guys for your input.

AccessX10, what are the commands I could say
to make the program work? Is there a command
list?

Thanks!
