Hi Everyone,

I’ve cracked it!

In the “Program Files/Home Control/Data” folder there are five files:

Myhouse – ActiveHome (TM) User File
Myhouse.bak
Myhouse.mac
Sample – ActiveHome (TM) User File
Sample.mac

Both the Myhouse.bak & Myhouse.mac are identical and looked like this:

[Information]
FileType=X-10 Macro

[A2 Off]
Name=Bedside Lamp Off
Type=Instant
Command00=B2 Dim 090%, Delay 000
Type00=128
Command01=null

[A2 On]
Name=Bedside Lamp On
Type=Instant
Command00=B2 Bright 090%, Delay 000
Type00=128
Command01=null

By typing over the 090% with 099% and saving these files, when I next started ActiveHome the levels in the macro window did show 99%! Of course if you try and change them again in ActiveHome they revert to the 10% steps, but if you don’t touch them and just down load them to the CM11 it works!

How at a press of the button on my Mini Timer, my lamp will dim up or down. I intend to set the lamp to fade up a few minutes before the alarm each morning.
