x10 control in actions?
« on: December 15, 2009, 10:20:01 PM »
Is there a way to have action control for x10?  I am trying to use a ambient light input to trigger a x10 control to turn on.  I don't see a analogue input to x10 control option in the actions section.  Anyone have any ideas how to accomplish this?

Controlling X10 via analog input is possible using the on-board rules. This would work whether the module was online or offline.

To get started: Click Modules tab, and select the Module that has the X10 smart board attached. Click "Onboard Rules" tab.

One of the Actions for a standard rule is control X10. You can also add a condition based on the analog input value. I would also add a condition testing a Variable Value, so that that the IO-204 does not continually send the X10 commands.

This project would be like the Servo project on the wiki: http://www.iobridge.net/wiki/onboard-actions
