X10 Plugin working with CM11 and Firecracker device | Page 3

Discussion in 'MediaPortal 1 Plugins' started by nopap, March 29, 2005.

  1. Hi,

    I am also a X10 lover I also have a HVAC thermostat controller by X10. I have an ADICON Ocelot device. Capable of sending X10 send IR and recognize IR.
    No one has added this plug-inn. Are there users interested or have an Ocelot.
    I also looked at plutohome.org running on Linux server. They have more timer events etc for X10. Is there a whislist or future release for X10. Or should we make it?
    I am not a C# expert so any tips how to begin will be usefull.

    Your welcome.

    I have been away from programing on mediaportal for awhile now but am thinking I would like starting to help out with this plugin again.

    Hello !

    I'd like buy x10 modules for automation of my house, and this plugin seems very good !
    But one question: the new model CM11 is on USB, instead of com port on the old model. Is your plugin compatible ? If not, do you think to upgrade it ?

    I believe the serial port version is supported only at this time....it sounds like a good upgrade but I am tasked with a few other things right now.

    Thanks for X10 Interface

    nopap and Devo;

    Thanks also for the interface for X10! I just dumped MCE 2005 for MP and it is great to see this interface available. I've had some luck with the firecracker (never used it since I bought it years ago) but it is interesting that it works really well with the firecracker software and is less reliable through MP. I'm sure I'll figure out what is wrong, but I did want to say thanks.

    I can't get my firecracker to work anymore using MP. Firecracker software itself works using Com3, so I know my devices are working.

    Can anyone tell me in the setup, do I just enter "3" as the Com port? Or do I enter "Com3"? or "COM3"? Any ideas why firecracker software works but not the MP plugin?

    Thanks in advance.

    awesome plugin. what needs to be installed for the xAP x10 connector to work? is it just a matter of downloading/installing the service/gui/console app that nopap provided and then the plugin? my service doesn't seem to work... i think i am missing something.

    There are USB --> Serial cables that are not exspensive (About USD 10). Check Newegg.com or other places like that.

    I haven't tried it myself but it's on my list of things to do.

    Hi!
    Is there any chance to change the target adress in the xAP header?
    The target is hardwired to "ERSP.X10". I'd like to configure the target adress by my own, so the plugin may work with the Homeseer xAP plugin too.
    Thanks!
