Publisher's Descriptions
CP290 Director X is MacOS X software that controls the original X10 home automation computer controlled interface, model number CP290. It completely replaces the Macintosh software that comes with the CP290, and has unique features not found in other Macintosh-based CP290 controllers.
CP290 Director X supports the standard CP290 features including:
Turning on and off modules immediately, including turning
them on dimmed;
Defining "turn on" and "turn off" events
to be stored in the CP290 and executed by the CP290 even if the
Macintosh is shut down. Such events include:
Turning a module on or off once at the specified time today;
Turning a module on or off once at the specified time tomorrow;
Turning a module on or off every week at the specified time
and day(s) of the week;
Turning a module on or off every week within an hour of the
specified time and day(s) of the week; (security mode);
Displaying the events currently stored in the CP290;
Setting the base house code of the CP290, which is the house
code it uses when its 8 on/off buttons are pressed;
Setting the clock in the CP290 to the clock in the Macintosh;
Displaying the clock in the CP290, and
Performing a self test function.
In addition to the above, the CP290 Director X supports the
following additional features:
The ability to specify that an event is to occur at sunrise
or sunset (plus or minus a specified time interval);
The ability to specify a specific date on which an event
is to occur, and optionally the interval in days thereafter that
the event should be repeated;
The ability to specify that the event should occur only on
even days or on odd days.
X10 systems usually work reasonably reliably, turning on or
off the selected module when the CP290 commands it. However, occasionally
noise or interference in your wiring can cut reliability whereby
a module is not turned on or off at the requested time. The best
solution to this problem, if acute, is to install noise filters,
signal bridges, or amplifiers. However, you may find that CP290
Director X solves the problem for you. CP290 Director X allows
you to optionally specify that each "on" event should
be sent more than once to the module, and/or that each "off"
event should be sent more than once. Thus, if the first command
to turn off doesn't work, the second or third one might. If you
specify that an event should be sent more than once, it will be
sent the specified number of times (two to four) at one minute
intervals.
CP290 Director X has the same basic functionality as CP290
Director (a MacOS 9/Classic program), but has been rewritten for
Mac OS X. However, it is backwards-compatible with CP290 Director
in that it reads and processes CP290 Director files.
