Ok - as noted in my post http://www.myx10.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1842&PN=1
I am losing Broadcast messages when a controlinc is sending a SERIES of keypresses. Workaround is to space the presses out (3-4 seconds in-between). Theory is that the repeating takes that long to die out (or perhaps a weak device is repeating longer than it should). I could try to debug this (swap around devices, move them to different legs, etc), but I think there's an easier solution....
It was pointed out to me that even though the Broadcast messages aren't ack'd, the Cleanup messages are. So....
Is there a way to trigger off a cleanup message?
Thanks!

Seems like you could use the Insteon Device Chg trigger and check the TEMP variables. TEMP4 = 2 (Group Cleanup from PH PLC) or 6 (Group Cleanup from device).

Hi Tony - ok - thanks - that works like a charm. On one hand, only powerhome would let me do such a thing.
On the other hand, - why did INSTEON make it so hard to get to the only handshook communication between Controlinc and PLC?
So what i did was change all my Controlinc triggers to Insteon_Device_Chg, and then in the first line of the macros called by the trigger statements, I inserted a
Jump - if(ph_getvar_n(2,4)=6,1,999)
Powerhome ROCKS
