Please log in for more thread options X10 Newbie here!!. I've just set-up a CM12U to control and a few appliance modules from my PC. Everthing works fine if everything is on the same mains ring, but if spread across two mains rings, devices on different rings don't work. I've just got a simple mains consumer unit with 2x 32amp rcd's (one for each mains ring - upstairs and downstairs), plus some others for lighting which i've not played with. Is there anything basic i've missed, or any basic guidelines for fault finding etc? Please help!!! Many Thanks Jon | ||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options John I've had similar problems. I was able to solve them by placing the CM12U in the breaker closet. This way the signal has to travel less before it reaches the device. When that doesn't work try then you might wanna check the X10 signals on your mains using an oscilloscope.
