I mix direct control amd macros, - as I also use a seperate housecode for
each room, and I have no rooms that have more than about a half-dozen X10
modules, I have ample codes available for both - especially when you
remember that using Homeseer you can use all of the X10 commands (IE on,
off, dim, bright) as macro triggers, so you can have four macros per
address.
