Sending X-10 commands from OPII

[PaulD]

Trying to program some X-10 related actions in PCAccess for my OPII. I see how to receive an X-10 command as a trigger but I cannot find any way to issue an X-10 command such as to activate a X-10 chime unit. Am I missing something or that not possible? If it is not possible, why does HAI use a two-way PIM for connection to powerline?

Paul, it's under the Actions, you turn on the Unit that corresponds to the address that you are trying to control.

Thanks. I now see what I was doing wrong. I was looking in the PCAccess menu structure for a X-10 "THEN" command like can be found under the Action menu. I failed to recognize that I needed to set up a bank of "House Code Formats" to "Standard" or "Expanded" for X-10 components so that the X-10 conponents would be treated as units just like my UPB components.

I am just now dabbling around with adding some X-10 components like the chime and a few others to my OPII setup in non critical applications just because they are so cheap.
