I have an alarmpanel that sends P2 Off as soon as the alarm is disengaged. This is done using an XM10 interface.

I want to turn a light on as soon as P2 Off is received. So:
IF P2 Off command pair
THEN X10 Command Pair C10 On

If I let the alarmpanel send P2 Off the Ocelot does not respond with C10 on. It is like it doesnt receive the P2 Off command. However, if I send P2 Off using HomeSeer it does work (C10 goes on).

When i use the 'Monitor X10' feature in C-Max I do see the received commands: P2 and P Off. So I figured that Ocelot might not notice it as a command pair and I changed my code to:

IF Single X10 P Off (Any device code in HC P that goes off is fine)
THEN X10 C10 On

However, again.. no luck. I'm confused :s Any ideas?

That's an unusual one, since it does work ok when you send the same X10 commands from Homseer. Even stranger is the fact that monitoring received X10 seems to indicate that the Ocelot is receiving it correctly from the alarm panel. I don't know anything about the XM10 but if it is like the PSC-05, it had a LED that would blink off every time a valid X10 transmission is received. Does it do this ok? Does it blink the same way whether it is the alarm panel or Homeseer sending the X10 commands?

The XM10 is the European version of the PSC-05. The LED blinks fine \:\( I'm beginning to doubt my Ocelot itself. I just posted another thread about a possible AND / OR issue.

That piece of code worked fine before. I'll try reloading the code.

Reloading the executive and the program seems to halve solved this. It now responds to P1 / Off.

Problem solved, but its weird :-\.
