Xin/Xout Status Request

[JackPollack]

Thanks so much for your help. I will try it tonight and post back.

[JackPollack]

Think I am on the right track.

Sending XOUT X10Out,zCross,[house\unit,House\%11001] returns 517 (1000000101) if the module is on or off. Any ideas why I am getting the same answer for both states?

Thanks

Are you sure that module is "Status Request" capable ?

Not all of them are.

Yes, it is a SmartHome ApplianceLinc 2-way #2002STW. Clearly says 2-way on it. Have also tried to (re)enable 2-way mode through programming.

How many words are you receiving?

From what I gather, the first word is the dimmer status. For On/Off Appliance modules, it's probably meaningless.

The second word is the ON/OFF status.

I thought about that in the middle of the night myself. If I Xin a second time I do get an On/off reading. Everything is working well.

Thanks again for all your help and feedback

Great!

That's good news.

Just thought I'd fill in a few more blanks missing from the manual.
