Gary,

Re ACE not always updating.  Go to Setup then ECS.  Next to the line that
says "Enable ECS monitoring" is a button that says "View."  Click on this.
This will bring up a list of all ECS names that you have configured in ACE.
Go through and make sure there are none that are incorrect.  I have found
that any "strays" in there can cause ACE issues.

What is CPU-XA ????

I have two of the RCS TX15 X10 Thermostats and have been running them for a
year or maybe longer with ECS.  Wish now I had gone ahead and gotten the
TX15B, however, the two I have installed work great!  ECS sends them X10
signals and I resend the temp every 30 minutes just to make sure the temp
is kept where I want it.  Rick Tinker helped me by sending his old event
and I then made a few changes.

I am running ECS Windoz live now since Saturday.  No telephone support yet.
 Still working on a few event things I need to change.  I have ACE running
as well.  Not sure why ACE sometimes shows the incorrect state.  If I go
into the button as if to edit and then click ok it corrects the state.

    cheers,

         Gary
