John,

If you have the following in your xplhal.xml

<schema msgtype="*" source_vendor="*"
source_device="*" source_instance="*"
schema_class="X10" schema_type="*"
subs="DMPXF" />

House code based commands (like dim) won't get actioned, as D = Device.

Try adding a line before/after,
With the same layout but change the subs to subs="HMPXF"

This should allow scripting of housecode commands.

One change I am planning to xplhal x10 scripting is to do away with the
seperation between housecode/devicecode, and script them as interchangable.
But this should hopefully sort your problem for now.

Regards
Tony
