X10 config for Paradigm

Wow, what kind of a garage sale has Paradigm equipment for sale?!

ETC's...  ;-)

Best,

I am not aware of any X10 interfaces, but if you are already communicating to/from X10 via RS232, you can easily send information between them via PSAP (Paradigm Serial Access Protocol) or custom user strings.

You can find a copy of the PSAP guide on the website here:

You can also call me ( or come visit) if you have specific questions.

I took a look at what I could find for a programming guide based on your description: ftp://ftp.x10.com/pub/manuals/cm11a_protocol.txt.

That uses raw hex values for commands, so you're going to have trouble making that work in Paradigm.  The Processor Serial Send actions only allow you to enter printable ASCII characters.  That means you won't be able to format the commands as required for the interface.  If I'm looking at the wrong thing, feel free to point me in the right direction and I'll see if I can give a more positive answer.

I have a similar document for X10.  I did not think you could send Hex codes.  I may need to use my house AMX controller as a "convertor" or gateway between the X10 and Paradigm.  For the devices I am looking to control I only need on-off command.  It should be pretty straight forward to create convertor of a set of ascii strings like HAD01on, HAD02off  house code A device 1 "on" /"off" and so on.... 

Thanks
