How about it, X10 Pro? Can this be put in (to not allow you to save invalid time ranges)?
Or what about adding a "Condition Checker"? You can tell it what time and day, and what other modules, flags, conditions, etc, and it will tell you what commands it would run on that macro. It would really help troubleshoot things like this.
And/or, perhaps a "debug" mode that would tell you WHY it runs or doesn't run a macro (which conditions were/were not met).

Good idea Noam I'll second that Idea!
error checking would catch problems such as that!

HI,

I've upgraded to ahp 3.202.

No problem found for the moment.

I'll try myHouse later ...

If you use the "Time between" condition in a macro, it processes the logic you need to make the comparison work. "Between 6pm and 6am" is automatically turned into "before 6am OR after 6pm" for you. If you use the "Between" condition you don't have to worry about the internal logic; it will just work.

"Between 6pm and 6am" is automatically turned into "before 6am OR after 6pm"
If what X10Pro states the condition should work and be true from 6:01pm to 11:59pm and 12:00am to 5:59am.
So the macro should also work.

My Simple setup has been working this week #1 is good...  hope this weekend I can play with it more.
AHP running for 24/4 days?

I just updated, I didn't redownload or reinstall or change anything with my setup.

I dint think my sound came on when I plugged it in though, Ill have to reset those macros.

my timestamp didn't change after update... but I haven't touched anything yet.

Smart Macros Conditions:   
I have had some problems with conditions and flags not being recognized, if time is between 6:00pm & 6:00am turn lights on, if between 6:00am & 6:00pm do not turn lights on, I have not tried these but hope to play with the Smart Macros some in the next day or two. If flags and conditions are fixed this would be a major plus.

The problem is that you can't test a between time that crosses midnight. eg between 6:00pm & 6:00am is really seen by AHP as [(6pm-midnight) AND (12:01am-6am)]. ie 9pm would pass the 1st part of the condition but not the 2nd. Similarly 1am would fail. So any time between that range would fail the condition. I believe this can't be changed due to fact X10 conditions must be in the same day.

To create the 6pm & 6am between time condition you have to set it up in a manner that might at first would seem illogical. ie [(6pm-midnight) OR (12:01am-6am)].

I hope that helps. I don't have an example handy as it has been awhile since I needed to cross the bewitching hour. I tend to use an offset of dusk and dawn for most of my outdoor lighting needs.

...and yet another reason X10 in not for the faint at heart.

I have been having problems with my AHP "Not responding" after a period of time so I decided to update to v3.202 using the url at the beginning of this thread.  I downloaded and tried to install but received a notice "A newer version of this installation is on the server.  Please re-download this installation"!

I tried "re-downloading" but contine to get the same message.  Anyone have any suggestions on what I could possibly do or where else "on the server" I could look for an update?

ray: We're going to release a new update today, so that will take care of the problem.

[ray]

That was quick!  Thanks.
