In the Insteon Device Details screen there is a drop down for "Location" which in my setup is blank. It appears that this is a user defined list but I can not find where one sets the list up. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

TIA - Carl

I don't know but while you are looking into it could you also find out what the Previous Exclude checkmark does?

You can manually type something into the location field on the Insteon Device Details screen. It appears to me, and Dave can correct this, the dropdown is built from what is entered under Devices->X10->Units->Location field. When I reinitialize PowerHome, the location field value I enter under Insteon Devices is not added to this dropdown, but values I add in the X10 Devices Location field is added to the dropdown.

Dean, you are quite right... if I creatqe some X10 devices and type in a location for them, they show in the drop down for the Insteon devices.

My bad guys...the Insteon Locations do not currently show up in the location dropdown. Ive already gone ahead and got it fixed.

The current version will pickup locations from X10devices, Digital I/O, and Analog I/O. The next version will add in the Insteon Devices.

The previous exclude column is currently unused for Insteon devices. It is used for the X10 devices and flags whether an X10 address should be excluded from the previous incoming X10 buffer. PowerHome has a global incoming X10 buffer and an incoming buffer for each housecode. There are functions and system variables that access these buffers making it easy to catch and trigger on multiple incoming X10 commands. So, you can have a trigger that only fires if an A1/ON followed within 3 seconds by a B2/OFF occurs.

Dave.
