Does the C-Max software allow you monitor what the Ocelot is receiving?
You'll probably want to run something like that so you can cross ECS off
your culprit list. Finding the real problem could take some doing. Have you
installed a signal bridge in your home? (Cheapies are about $30.)

Subject: [ECS] Need help troubleshooting


I'm having problems with ECS "seeing" PCL commands on housecode B.
Housecode A is working fine - no problems at all.  With housecode B, the
receiver is working fine - any modules not integrated with ECS are working
fine.  I'm using a new Ocelot (formerly CPU-XA).

I've got an event that speaks the weather when B5/Off is pressed.  It
doesn't work.  There is also a motion detector set to B10 which doesn't
work.  I also have some light scenes set to B1 On/Off that don't work.
However, a lamp attached to a module set at B2 works fine (no interaction
with ECS).

I've moved the receiver around, I've changed the housecode to C (of course,
changing the event).  I've unplugged the Ocelot and two-way interface and
let them sit for an hour, then rebooted the computer - still nothing.

This all started to happen around the same time that I had those problems
with the TTS and wave engine.  (RE:TTS Error 1/25/00)

Do I need to install the C-Max Control software that came with the Ocelot?
(I didn't).

Thanks in advance
