sending x10 preset levels

[paulw]

How do I go about doing a set level, or a preset level with the 99i?

X10 Modules; Smarthome Insteon in X10 mode or the older Smarthome X10 compatible modules?

 

Real X10 modules do not understand Preset Dim commands.

Hello Paul,

 

Preset Dim levels are covered in this thread: http://forum.universal-devices.com/viewtopic.php?t=1168

 

I believe that marksanctuary has also added this to the Wiki (too lazy to look at the moment).

 

As Brian indicated, SmartHome Insteon and older Smarthome X10 units use "preset Dim" commands.

 

X10 brand, Leviton, and ACT units use simple bright/dim or extended code direct dim commands (the PLM cannot transmit the extended code).

 

Clear as mud, right? Give us an idea of what hardware (units) you are working with and what you're trying to accomplish. Chances are a Forum member has been there already.

Thanks to you both. The link gave me my answers.

 

Have done it with other x10 controllers, but for some reason got lost in the sauce here.

 

Thanks again.
