Hey guys,

Tony made my life much easier in my last posting, and I now have the worlds simplest question:
in any scripting format, what is the simplest way run to run this when the script is executed:
x10 device A1 on, wait 1 second, X10 A1 off.

simple eh?

I’ll try this again.. If a macro qualifies as a scripting format then…. assuming you have the device defined in setup under devices and your ID for A1 is something like LAMP then the easiest way would be to create a MACRO with entries:

COMMAND: X-10    ID: LAMP   VALUE: ON
COMMAND: WAIT Send Keys: 1
COMMAND: X-10    ID: LAMP   VALUE: OFF

Where do i put this macro in Powerhome? when I open macros in PH explorer it has a build your own dropdown functionality and no where to copy/paste. and the command option is not available.

You start by going to PowerHome Explorer then to Macros. Page 35 of the Users Manual shows this info.
