RFXCOM receiver relay output - not urgent

Hi Bert,

Is the relay output on a stored X10 command still present in the software as I can't get it to work! Do you hold the button down during the X10 transmission or before and after it? I have made sure I have the receiver module in X10 mode, the LED flashes etc. Do I need to do anything else?

This is not urgent at all, I'm just curious,

Steve

Sorry, I don't understand your question.

Are you telling me that RFreceiver does not show X10 commands while the receiver detects them and transmits the received commands to the PC because the green LED is blinking?

Sorry, I should have been clearer. I'm referring to paragraph 15.3 in RF receiver details.pdf and wondered if the software still handled the connection for a relay circuit?

Thanks, Steve

The pushbutton is not installed but you can make a connection between the 2 pads on the receiver PCB. Transmit the X10 command, remove the connection. The relay output will switch on the received X10 command.
