This is really cool, I didn’t realize this would capture X10 RF to send latter. though it seems your missing a step somewhere I can’t seem to utilize this
.
Have you got the X10RF package via the MIG installer.
I’ve got all sorts of sensors installed this way like generic smoke sensors, water sensors, CO sensors etc.
Assuming your CM15 is hooked up too. I don’t use X10 security sensors so I can’t vouch for them. Try a cheap generic sensor and use the method I’ve outlined above.
Not sure but I think bkenobi got the x10 security sensors working at some stage.
What you’re really trying to achieve is to capture the RF hex code for use later in other macros and scripts. You can monitor all your RF traffic on the Dashboard.
yes, the RF package is installed I can monitor all RF traffic.
if I activate the IR program I can see my security arm and disarm button presses in it.
Are you saying the cm15 is seeing and reporting Other RF signals to HG?
Or do you have another RF receiver connected.
I can create a new widget and bind the ir program to it
I’m not sure where the enable control by IR remote box is
sorry my brain must be slow today.
In the Enable control by IR remote section tick that box
The CM15 you have attached to your Raspberry Pi should pick up any RF signals you broadcast and report them on screen. Unless you have those signals assigned to a device it will obviously do nothing with them.
ok so I tested a virtual switch adding it to my group I selected switch type then checked IR controller then clicked the capture code and it captured the code for the Arm there is no option to add a code for specific on/off but that’s ok. saved then clicked the on button and nothing. clicked the off button and nothing as well. I don’t believe security codes can be sent from the CM15A.
I remember chatting with a x10 developer when they were working on updating the SDK for the cm15.
they told me most of the security stuff would only work with the European version.
If you can indeed control other RF devices with the cm15 then the European version has better RF capabilities.
I’ll ask bkenobi if he got the security working and how.
not that it matters as I have it working with the HA-Bridge but if it can save some one else the head ache I’ll continue playing.
The only RF HG reports seeing are those sent from X10 remotes.
Since this is a North American module the RF (send & receive) is a different frequency then the European one so this may be part of the problem.
What do you mean by this? Many of us use cm15 and AHP to send security key fob ARM/DISARM Rf to our DS7000s every day. what am I missing?
It gives you the option to toggle that switch. It means once to press on and once to press off.
I doubt you’ll get the x10 security sensors working this way. Most security sensors RF codes have built in proprietary additional codes built in. Makes sense really. I’m sure bkenobi hit this problem before.
Most of these topics are covered in the old forum. It’s worth manually parsing through the old forum and noting the x10 related posts.
Kevininv, is my doc I am working on of value to integrate with yours?
Active Home Pro is propriety software as is the firmware in the CM15. X10 in HomeGenie does not use your AHP drivers as you have already discovered.
ok… what is your point?
My point is Mike, the AHP software probably recognises the proprietary codes that are communicated to and from the x10 security sensors. HomeGenie uses the XtenLib to control x10 which doesn’t.
I’m attempting to answer your queries here. Please don’t fire off questions like it was a support help line. I’d appreciate that.
Sure- you can add an appendix or just integrate with mine if you think that makes sense… My doc is “open source” so anyone can update it as they see fit 
Just repost it anytime!
Bkenobi says he never played with the security in HG.
I do see a use for the IR controler other then for security. Maybe today I’ll get somewhere can you upload a sample of this working for your smokedetector it may help me better understand how this works.
You keep referring to IR so are we talking IR or RF. The instructions I gave you cover both. Once you have installed the x10RF package via the MIG installed the method I outlined above works.
Have you managed to capture an RF code on the widget you created. I assume you have a KR22E or such like that you can use to test the transmission and capture of RF hex codes.
I have an old ATI Remote Wonder RF remote control which HG will gladly capture all the RF hex codes that you issue.
After that I already explained the method of creating a widget, assigning it as a switch, binding it to IR Remote Controller, Enable control by IR remote tick box and using the little 
to record the RF command and saving it.
If your sensor/remote issues valid RF signals 319/433mhz than HomeGenie will accept it.
Wonder if there is anything that can be done using the ahcmd.exe command in commons folder?
ahcmd [sendsecurerf/sendsecurehomecontrolrf] [RFcommnad] [security type] [security code] [transmit] [delay]
I’ve gotten some of them figured out but am still working on the rest.
sendsecurerf = [arm away]
sendsecurehomecontrolrf = [arm home]
security type = [standard or extended][why/what ?]
security code = [house code]
transmit = [?]
delay = [?]
above from wmikef7 on x10 forum in 2009…
I am not sure what you are trying to say here? I have modules for each of my DS10 security devices and HG certainly sees them turn on and off. All from help here! From this it seems to me HG does recognize the security proprietary codes.
I apologize for apparently asking too many questions. I thought this was a give and take forum to share ideas and offer help when possible; why I was beginning a doc to add to Kevin’s with the missing descriptions of HG use. If you think I am asking too many questions and this is your forum I certainly will go away and stop bothering you. Just tell me.
Not at all, but your comment …and your point is…was a little condescending.
I thought I’d already made the point that x10 security sensors were highly unlikely to work in HomeGenie. If someone does manage to provide a workaround, all the better. Personally I don’t use them.
I outlined the method of getting RF working in HomeGenie which I thought was quite straightforward.
You have to realise that the X10 user base would be quite small here. Users have moved on to more modern and reliable technologies.
Maybe if you take your query step by step wait for a response and report back success or failure on the suggested solution it might make it easier for others on here to help you.
Don’t forget this is not a commercial product and support is purely offered on a goodwill basis by some very helpful and knowledgeable users and we do have time zone differences to deal with too.
