X10CM11AClass

X10 put out some nifty home control products that communicate over the power lines and respond to commands to turn on; turn off; dim; etc. The CM11A is device that interfaces a pc to the command line protocol and also contains timers and macros. This project is a class I wrote to emulate what the keware ocx does. Keware (http://www.homeseer.com/downloads/index.htm) It can control devices in any housecode from your pc. It also monitors devices that are turned on or off from a remote or firecracker interface and raises events when this happens. The HouseCode can be any 1 of 16 (A through P) and each house code can handle any of 16 devices (1 to 16). I started out with the firecracker class I wrote http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=64719&lngWId=1 and I experimented with it and took information from the x10 protocol file I made some switches and used a vertical progress bar to set the dim level. I implemented a device status for each device. Finally, I was able to implement the all on and all off commands. Of course all of this is useless if you don't have the x10 hardware that it
