Regardless, this was before KCP&L did their routine maintenance, after 27 years, after receiving a complaint from somebody that was affected by it's poor connections. We bought into an area that is 27 years old, and mostly still consists of it's original 1985 residents. They are mostly not computer literate, and I'm sure I was laughed at when we moved in, and I asked as many here were sure some of the X10 funnies I was experiencing was no doubt due to my neighbors. After all,  we are on the end of the transformer line with 8 homes. :-)

I have been in full sight of my dining room's 12 candle candelabra lit all day looking for blinks…….. No Blinks!

There is Happiness at Handley's Sports Bar!

Thanks,

George

I fixed one 3 or 4 years ago that surfaced finally in a way I could finally duplicate. You need to check your logs and see if XTension thinks it ran the event or not. All scheduled events are logged. If the scripts or whatever ran without errors then XTEnsion thinks it sent the commands, if the log events are actually missing then there has to be a reason in the software that they didn't work. But I need to know which kind of problem we're looking for here.
