Heres what I have and want to do.
I bought (3) X-10 indoor occupancy sensors

I also have a 2-way wireless transceiver

These are the light switches I have

My HA software is HAL2000
What I want to do is set these motion sensors in various rooms. When someone walks into the room I want the lights to turn on automatically, then turn off (x) minutes after they leave.
The problem I am having is that I can't get the occupancy sensors to turn the lights on. I have tried different outlets (on different circuits) for the transceiver and different rooms with various addresses and switch type. I have also placed the sensor as close as a foot to the transceiver. I know the transceiver is receiving the signal because when I set the occupancy sensor to the address of the transceiver it can control the on/off function of the transceiver. I have also used a second transceiver I have to try to get this to work.
Any help or comments would be appreciated.
