I am in the process of upgrading to HS3 and it would seem some functionality that was available with HS2 is not available with HS3, specifically the ability to trigger an event based on receiving X-10 Extended Codes. I was using this feature with an old Stanley Garage Door monitor, albeit ancient but it still works like a charm.
' The door sensor sends a an extended command when the door is open or closed
' The command format is:
'
' [house][device][door code][29]
'
' the [door code] is as follows:
'
' 16 or 18 for door 1 closed
' 17 or 19 for door 1 open
' 32 or 33 for door 2 closed
' 34 or 35 for door 2 open
From what I can determine, there is no way to trigger an event based on reception of an X10 Extended Code, is this correct?
If so, is there a reason why this functionality was dropped?
Any thoughts on how I can keep using the Stanley Garage Door monitor with HS3?
Thanks.
