[QUOTE="patrick, post: 195172, member: 12502"] Hi! 1. You will need a xAP connector for X10 like the one here: [url]http://www.edjo.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk...0/x10_main.htm[/url] 2. homeseer is not mandatory. Only the xAP X10 connector from 1 above is required 3. The xAP protocol is similar to UPnP. This way my plugin does not care, or know, that you have an X10 device, it only knows you have an xAP Basic Status and Control Device. The Connector from 1 above translates the xAP and communicates with the X10 device(s). 4. With my plugin you can basically only control the other xAP devices. There is a file runner "device" that you can add to execute any file you want, so you could have a batch file or whatever. 5. Not with my plugin, unless you can do something with the file runner. MP is not setup for that and though I could do things like that through code, MP changes so much that I do not have the time to try and chase that horse. Maybe some day I will check out code for the amazing work and-81 has done on the MCE replacement plugin that does this... HTH, patrick [/QUOTE]
