Since upgrading to 3.183, I found that my
Activity monitor is no longer logging timers
run from the CM15A. It only seems to be
logging "manual" commands (those I click in
the interface, or use a handheld remote,
etc).

Kenny - You may need to de-install and re-
install AHP software then apply the
update ?   Before that, try removing power
from the CM15A, remove the batteries, plug
back into AC, put batteries back in, from
AHP clear the interface, update the
hardware settings, then reload timers and
macros.  In essence - a cold load to CM15A.

I have a paranoid view of this stuff,
whenever I update the software I always
reload the CM15A from the base
configuration - state it was in when I
first installed it, cold loaded.   I just
think it makes good sense to reload the box
after the software is updated..... Go
figure, maybe it helps.

Downloaded new activehome code, updated
module, now remotes do not operate modules,
but they do show activity on the activehome
software.  Software activated modules
(using mouse) operate modules fine.
(remote control activation shows switch
on / off - but dimmer indicator stays same.)

Any Ideas?

I removed batteries from module - cleared
interface memory, then downloaded timers
and macros.  No luck.  Oh, btw, Everything
worked fine before upgrade, so I should not
have prob w interference, RF issues, signal
loss, etc that I know of, besides - the
software activated (mouse clicked) modules
work.

Check your hardware settings to see if you
are monitoring the house codes that you are
using.  Sometimes during an upgrade thoes
settings are lost.

Hope this helps.

Greg:  Double check the “Harware
Configuration” window to make sure that you
are transceiving the house codes you are
using.  When upgrading past 3.177 (I think)
it sets the transceived house codes to none.

Kenny, glad I could help, hope it stays
fixed for you. Doing what I suggested (cold
load) has always worked best for me when
updating their software.....

Bob

In your cold load procedure you didn't
mention the USB,  Do you
disconnect/reconnect the USB at some point
during the CM15A cold start?

TIA

Good point, disconnecting the USB cable
from the CM15A is probably best but I have
found it makes no difference in the process
I outlined.  I have done it both ways
though.

One other thing.  It is a good idea to make
a backup copy of the files in the AHPro
directory.  I had it remove my data file
during the uninstall.  Fortunately I had
made a backup copy.

Roger H.  It's always a good idea to back
up any data, you are "Right On".

I changed the default directory for the AHP
file, made a sub-directory under My
Documents.  AHP launches the data file from
My Documents.  Updating the software does
not touch it.   I also make a backup
everytime I change something, timers,
macros, etc.   I copy the updated file to
another sub-directory for backups.   I just
add a sequential number to the end of the
file name. I have all the revised data
files stored away.
