mrduncan Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Has anyone setup a 1132CU X-10 controller? I can't get the LOR Hardware program to recognize the controller. Does the 1132CU need it's own vitrual USB COM port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taybrynn Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 I have that same unit.But, LOR only works with the CM11a ... not other X10 controllers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyromill Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Just a little tip here. With the new version of lor, using windows commands and a command line control like ahcmd.exe for the cm15a a little batch scripting we can use our usb controls now something like this in a batch file...@echo offC:"Program Files (x86)Common FilesX10Common"ahcmd.exe sendplc a2onC:"Program Files (x86)Common FilesX10Common"ahcmd.exe sendplc a3onC:"Program Files (x86)Common FilesX10Common"ahcmd.exe sendplc a4onand in lor having the windows command setup to run your batch file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taybrynn Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 slick -- I'm loving that idea.Plus folks using homeseer could do even more stuff ...But thats only one command per song, right? Or can yousend commands during the song as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyromill Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Here is another little slick idea i just added in with too many thoughts running through my head..Using the bmail client at http://www.beyondlogic.org/solutions/cmdlinemail/cmdlinemail.htm I now send myself a text msg to my phone when the show starts running simply by adding another line to my batch file that is in the startup section of my show a very big THANK YOU to the lor team for this enhancement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyromill Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 oops missed the questions there. As far as I know only one command per song, clever batch work might get some more options but hey its a start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taybrynn Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 So now we need a utility that reads our upcoming sequence (.lms) and determines the length ... then allows us to run sub-events within that timeframe. Just one of the functions would be updating the RDS information. We could also take say the first track and possibly do stuff at certain points in time.

mrduncan Posted December 10, 2008 Author Share Posted December 10, 2008 Great.....I'm new to the LOR world......I've only been using LOR for a couple of weeks......Can you direct me to where I can get more inforamtion on how to run windows commands from LOR?

pyromill Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 In the lor help file is where I found the information for running commands from lor. As to batch files the internet is full of information on them ... I will give one little idea for multiple usage of many commands I am currently exploring. I'm sure there is a better way but the use of "sleep" which one of many versions can be found at http://www.steelbytes.com/?mid=32&cmd=download&pid=16 I am currently testing out to get "spare slow channels" of control using the cm15a. Along with a number of other ideas have been spawned from this ability to run commands from the sequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eurbani Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I had an idea with subsequences to make this work. But apparently, when you run a subsequence, the windows command from the subsequence does not run.Any other idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember if I sent it to the wish list before, but I just did that now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eurbani Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I already sent my suggestion. That's two of us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
