Please log in for more thread options > When ever my program sends a signal to turn on the outlet, the outlet chat=
ters and the light blinks on and off, then stays off. If I use the remote to=
turn on the same outlet, all works fine, if I use the remote interface on t= he computer to turn on the light, again, all works fine. It is just when the= computer program sends the signal that there is a failure. Any ideas? Thank= s in advance >
> -- > Joe All of my X10 outlets chattered like that then finally failed completely. They were all Chinese ones re-branded by ACT and a couple of them were HomePro but they both looked identically re-branded. Why ACT would want to put their name on such crap is beyond me. I would have to hit my switch 4 or 5 times before the relay would (by sheer chance) land on the desired state (on or off). And the relays were so loud the dog would jump. | ||||||||||
