Please log in for more thread options connected in each phase of 110V/50Hz in a 2-single phase connections. There are x10 lamp module [LM465] along with motion sensor MS14A set to the house code of lamp module. The motion sensor is working by turning on the lamp module when any motion is detected but the PLC is not getting any feedback corresponding to the motion sensor activity Is the motion sensor working with the aid of signal linc. What x10 transceiver module can i make use of in conjunction with sensor Thanks Arnie | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options The Signalincs do not transmit X-10 but only Insteon. I think you say the motion sensor is now turning on the LM465. That is not possible without an X-10 transceiver (e.g. TM751, RR501) unless you have a motion sensor that sends directly to the powerline. Even with an X-10 transceiver, the Powerlinc will only get feedback if the transceiver is on the same phase as the Powerlinc. Normally, I recommend the Leviton HCPRF as it handles all housecodes but, with your installation being so non-standard, it may not be worth the extra cost. The best alternative is the X-10 RR501. It receives both via RF and via the powerline (and responds to Status Request for its relay) while the TM751 responds only to RF. Leviton HCPRF: http://www.smarthome.com/4017.html X-10 RR501: http://www.smarthome.com/4005x.html X-10 TM751: http://www.smarthome.com/4002.html As someone else has already suggested, you need to include the model numbers for all hardware to avoid confusion. X-10 compatible equipment is made by several companies and features differ from model to model and from manufacturer to manufacturer. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options yes i forget to mention about RF transceiver module RTM75 it is also
in the circuit. As mentioned in your if through this transceiver the lamp module is getting turned on then why the PLC is not getting any feedback of the transceiver activity. I have tried connecting it both in the same phase as PLC as well in another phase. Though the lamp module gets turned ON on motion detction but i do not see anything in the PLC command window related to this Thanks Arnie | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

As I posted before, the Signalincs repeat Insteon commands between phases but they do not repeat X-10 commands. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options I have placed RTM75 in same phase as PLC, it is working as before but
my PLC is still not getting the feedback. If we think 50Hz frequency is the factor responsible then taken as a whole it should not work. The room is small test lab type where all these setup resides with one step down transformer also in the room. The room is entirely closed one with glass door.Is the noise on line may be a reson. I am making use of step down transformer since the supply available is 240V Thanks Arnie | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
