I had a similar issue to this and the post you referenced. I had not correctly configured my vrcop. Once it was configured all was good. Have you used the vrcop with anything else?

I was thinking about the same thing but I was going to use a 2-way x10 set up so that if the VRCOP died in between recycles I'd be ok. Let us know if this works for you.

My zwave systems dies every now and then. Sometimes within a day sometimes it runs for a week or so. If I unplug the VRCOP and plug it back in things start working again. I can't find a robot to run over and hard "reboot" my module so I need a better answer. Is there a way to tell the VRCOP...

There are some good posts on this topic. I'm getting ready to do the same and one of the points that was made was "do you want to remotely close a door that you cannot see?" May not be an issue for everyone but it made me think. I've got a couple IP cameras that let me check stuff. I can access...

What operating system are you running and any set up recomendations?

Ok, it time to move my home automation fetish to its own PC. Looking for info and input. Struggling to find any good info on the internet. If you have any good links or advice I'd appreciate it. A little background: Running Elve, controlling Z-wave, X10 and IP devices (cameras so far). I am...

Been using Cocoontech as an info source for a while. I've also checked out your blog more than once. Now I'm waiting to see what your are going to do with Elve and Droid.... :)

Which devices? The remote? If so it wouldn't surprise me. Got mine for $9 so if I have to get something else it won't kill me I just like cheap.... :)

Ok, What about any binary sensor with a GE remote?

Trying to set up a Fortrezz water/freeze sensor (zwave) with a GE remote without any luck. Before I look elswhere I want to besure that I am adding the switch to my network correctly. As anyone done this? Can you use the GE remote to validate operation, IE feedback? Thanks in advance.

Do you know if they have a built-in fuse?

Lights have been untouched and in good shape. I am at the wattage limit of the switch. 300W in a 3 gang box. Switch was cycled a number of times so I don't think I was in between positions. Still working just fine.

Last night a recently installed GE switch made a subtle pop when turned on locally and didn't activate. Tried to cycle it on and off and the switch was apparently dead including no blue light. After cycling the switch remotely, the next day, I noticed the the blue light was back on and the...

You da man. That worked.

This is a timely conversation. I'm in the middle of trying to do this now. I don't think I'm following you. I can't figure out how to "include" a secondary controller. Could you clarify a little. Also I read that you can transfer primary controller function to a different controller from the GE...
