Hi,

Basically, An ex wiz-kid that never quite grew up!

Author of Adaptive Home Logic, electronics engineer, radio amateur, star trek fan, boat owner, etc.

Enthusiastic about computer since the late ‘70’s with the first home micros, Nascom II, UK101, Atari, Video Genie EG303, Sinclair, etc. (a most exciting time) and electronics, probably something to do star trek! I studied electronics at collage (analogue & digital) where I became very interested in computer control, designing several digital input / output boards.

This is where my home automation dream began (I guess trying to emulate the bridge of ST TNG) first in my bedroom and eventually within a fly-bridge motor yacht, my very own version of a ST shuttle craft! (I did say I never quite grew up!), which subsequently evolved to Adaptive Home Logic v2.

AHL2 developed from the realisation that there was not a general purpose automation application that was easy to use, yet highly flexible, designed for some of the more interesting aspects of HA, whilst being reliable. It was not designed to compete with Apple / Microsoft in the convergence of home media or even in the area of typical touch screen type automation, although it can assist in these areas, but more to easily interface almost anything into the wider home automation environment together with advanced feature for the computer control / home automation enthusiast.

I wish to make AHL2 very useful, so please keep me updated with your thoughts and wishes.
 
I can't get it to see my cm11a. ;)

I did:

Settings>ComPort

These appear correct and stick when the window is closed, there is no commit or apply.

Settings>PowerLine Interfaces

I can't get past the technology drop down, I choose x10 and I cannot give focus to the next field "Interface". The field below that is unlabeled.
 
Hi Collin,

There is a slight peculiarity with the spin box entry fields (the ones with both the up & down selection arrows) in this program, in that the selected value being displayed, also needs to be clicked for it to be applied, this will also enable the next field with the appropriate options.

Due to interactive nature of the the settings com port dialogue a commit / abort option is not applicable. The unlabeled box is simply an information box to provide helpful advice regarding the selections made.

After this step is complete, select 'Add New' from the PLM menu to setup & test your Powerline modules.

Many thanks for your interest.

Robin
