oh I see. But I should be able to add as many volume down presses as I need in a macro right? In addition if I have say 10 switches eventually is there a way for me to control only 3 of those in the macro?
And you arent familiar with the maxi controller are you? Seems like its exactly what I wnated to do except you have to do it physcally I think. Thanks for ur help by the way. Ur the man!

By the way Rob. I found the files for X10 on the yahoo groups. (I still need to read your doc how to make sense of all the).

But I was going to ask you, is there a written document or something that tells you what each button does? ILike I dont even know the options an X10 remote has, so is there a guide or something to show what finction is what and into what button it is programmed to?

You can have up to 15 button presses in a regular macro.

Sure, press 1, 2 and 3 (for example) before you press VOL- (ie, DIM) and those three units will dim.

Read this then open the X10 files using KM or RM...
