Hi,

Many Xanura devices can be programmed to auto acknowledge in case of state changes.
Does anyone know which X10 message is sent then?

Thanks?

Hi Curtainman...welcome
In case of auto acknowledge the programmed address and status of the Xanura device is transmitted over the powerline. for example A02 ON. Check the manuals on http://www.domoticaforum.eu/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6 for example the Xanura technical.pdf.

I have consultated the manuals already.

My question is what happens in case of auto ack (if I understand you correctly A1 ON, or A1 StatusOn), and

what happens is I send a status request (e.g. A1 StatusRequest)?
- A1 StatusOn|StatusOff?

Greetings

For example: If you send an X10 command to a device you can assume that the command has reached the device and act on this. If you activate Auto acknowledge the device sends the command back over the powerline when the command is received (so the device acknowledged).
If you send a status request the status of the device is sended back to you.

Let me explain why I am asking all this.
I'm programming a gateway between the CM11A/X10 and XPL.

So, I was wondering if you know the exact X10 commands that are sent.
I am in particular looking for the following:
- in case of an auto ack is then sent A1 On|Off or is the X10 Status On|Off used
- in case of a X10 status request is then sent back A1 Status On|Off

Greetings

Sorry can't tell for sure, I'm not using these options right now in my software.
Perhaps you can find it here http://www.domoticaforum.eu/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=126
